Re: Homeworks The true answer is " to change the course of history" .
Besides, "homework" is uncountable.

Re: Homeworks This is three times in a row that you've merely plagiarised a correct answer from somewhere in the thread and posted it as your own. I haven't bothered checking further back. Originally Posted by Mohammadhelmi

Re: Homeworks This is a good idea. But as we non-native English speakers have come to learn English, it is always a good habit for English teachers to point out all the mistakes a thread starter has made. Sometimes I think foreigners are too polite. More importantly, when we are chatting in an online forum and you point out others' mistakes, it causes no embarrassment.
