Find the mistakes ! Let 's try together >_*
I think it's useful to improve our skill effectively .
Start with these simple sentences :
Everybody agrees with his ideas , doesn't he ?
He tried to work hard ; therefore , he failed the final test .
The manager asked me if I speak any other languages .
This problem which I tried to solve it was not easy .
Mr.Brown 's children are used to be picked up after school .
The village which he was born is in the southeast of VN .
Good luck !

Wow wow...why so tricky, kitty... next time please type it correctly so I would think harder. I knew something is not right with #1...
OK, 2nd try...and hope that I don't have to do the 3rd time.
The grammatical rule is very complicated here. When a pronoun refers to a phrase containing every or any that falls within a different independent clause, the pronoun cannot be singular. Therefore, sentence#1 should be...
Everyone/body agrees with his ideas, don't they ?
Or, to make it sound more logical...
All of them agree with his ideas, don't they ?
And sentence #5
Mr. Brown's children used to be picked up after school.
Mr. Brown's children were usually picked up after school.
Someone used to pick up Mr. Brown's children after school.
Would you like some more, kitty?
Anyone recue me ? huhuhu
