If you can not resolve the dispute, it will have to be settled by...........

1 arbitrarion
2 court
3. election
4. referee


The new harassment law comes into..................on September 12.

1 force
2 condition
3 date
4. power

As he did not have a criminal............., the judge sentenced him to 50 hours of community work.

1 case
2. file
3. record

In criminal cases, the judge has to decide whether the accused is guilty ' beyond any.............doubt.

1 reasonable
2 unresolved

The judge will hear the next............after a short break.
1 lawsuit
2 trial

cleopenelope, welcome.

Please provide your answers along with the reason(s) you feel they are correct or incorrect.

Note that, we try not to do assigments, but that we will guide you through, that is, if you do the work.

We have no way of knowing whether your questions are assignment related
or not. Sorry.

All the best.

Please do not provide the answers. Guide the poster. Teach.

Looks fabulous! However, the problem is that there are four choices, 1., 2., 3., and 4. For example,

Example
Student's answer: (D)
Teacher's answer: (Give the reason (D) is correct)

Student's answer: (A)
Teacher's answer: (Give the reason (A) is incorrect !NOTE, do not at this point give the correct answer. Hold off. Wait. Let the student choose again.

Student's 2nd try: (B)
Teacher's answer: (Give the reason (B) is correct and tie it into the reason (A) wasn't correct)

All my best.

Give the reason
Difficult, my answers are based on feeling only, mostly I cannot explain why it has to be like that, it has to sound good.

I think I'll leave this to the real teachers and only try to help in very simple and obvious cases

Mine was just an example. It's not a rule. Your way, feeling your way through, is fine. As long as you can explain it in a way that has the poster taking responsibility for their work, it's all good.

Keep up the good 'feelings'.
