ENG 1112 F Test 3 (80 minutes, but you may ask for more time if needed) The test is worth 15 percent of your grade in the course. It will be written in two parts, and each part will be graded out of 100. This means that you will be getting two grades for test 2: one grade (out of 100) for part 1 (that grade will be worth 10% of your final grade in the course) and another grade (out of 100) for part 2 (that grade will be worth 5% of your final grade in the course). Both parts of the test should generally be completed within 80 minutes in the DGD, but you may ask for more time if needed (or take more time if you have an official accommodation from the university). The test is “open book.” You may consult course materials and notes while writing it, but you may NOT communicate with other students or other people who could help you answer the questions during the test (you may ask the professor or your DGD leader questions). My contact information in case you are not in my classroom but wish to contact me: Email: gbaronsa@uottawa.ca Mobile and text: 613-295-6372 Part 1 is included in this handout below (see instructions below). Part 2 is NOT included in this handout. You may find it in the Quizzes section of your DGD Brightspace page. It will include 10 multiple-choice questions (each question worth 10% of Part 2 of the test). Part 2 will be graded automatically. However, you will NOT receive your grade for Part 2 immediately upon completing the test. I will publish the grades for part 2 the day after the test and will keep you posted by email when the grades are available. You may submit the two parts of the test in any order that you’d like (part 1 before part 2 or part 2 before part 1). Both parts should be completed within 80 minutes (but you may ask for more time if needed). Note about accommodations If you are registered with SASS and have accommodations for extra time, please submit the test late in accordance with your accommodation (for example, within 120 minutes instead of 80 minutes if you have an accommodation for 50% extra time). Brightspace might give you a late notification, but you may ignore it. Part 1 Part 1 contains 10 questions (each worth 10% of Part 1). Part 1 is worth 10% of your grade in the course. Please download this document, save it on your computer, answer each question in the document directly below the question and upload the document in the Assignments section of your DGD

Brightspace under “Test 3, part 1.” The file you upload should be in a Word or PDF format. Your DGD leader will typically grade Part 1 within 3 weeks. (1) Explain what the two problems are in the following sentences and rewrite the sentence to eliminate the problems: The report recommends food sovereignty for our Indigenous Peoples , it encourages growing wild rice (manoomin). - Redundancy with the use of the word it and the comma - When discussing Indigenous people, we should avoid possessiveness. - Corrected version: The report recommends food sovereignty for Indigenous Peoples and encourages growing wild rice (manoomin). (2) Explain what the two problems are in the following sentence and rewrite the sentence to eliminate the problems: I was just wondering if you could please email the team leader and I to let us know when you will have the data ready. - The pronoun I is incorrect, and instead should be replaced with “me”. - “I was just wondering if you could please” is too apologetic, it should be replaced with something more assertive. - Corrected Version: Could you please email the team leader and me to let us know when you will have the data ready? (3) Explain what the two problems are in the following sentences and rewrite the sentences to eliminate the problems: I am writing this to you in reference to the report that the environmental-assessment team submits each month in which the team point out risks in our building. - The word team is a collective noun and is not used correctly in this sentence. - It is quite wordy. - Corrected version: I am writing this to you in reference to the monthly environmental- assessment report which highlights risks in our building.
