Samane,
ReplyDeleteGood structure - strong opening and closing sentences, information about his personal life, then his social and political contributions and finally a neat, succint summary of his work.
Your linkers have worked well, except perhaps one. Can you find it?! (Here's a clue: It doesn't fit into your essay because it's too informal and the rest of your essay has a good formal academic style.)
It's good to see that you have tried to use relative clauses. Have a look at this one:
'There were six children,however he was the only son,who educated in various towns....'
Do you mean he was the only son out of the 6 children and he was educated in various towns or do you mean that there were other sons but Shamloo was the only one of the sons that was educated in different cities? I think perhaps you need 'and' between the clauses and not a relative pronoun. Does this make sense? I wish I was there to explain it better on Monday!
The other uses of relative clauses are good.
Samane, your hard work on this course has really paid off and you have improved a lot. Give yourself 'a big pat on your back!'
