You know the types of exam questions that pose a sentence with a blank, and you have to fill in the blank using one of the vocabulary words from a list? I'm faced with some tough choices because the answer key states the "correct" answer, but after grading countless exams, I've found that the students have come up with some creative possibilities on their own:
Pete: Can I do my online assignment at home?
Paul: Definitely, as long as you can abuse the internet.
Vegetarian food not only looks like regular food, but it's just as insufficient.
Athletes from all over the world dominated in this year's Olympic Games in Beijing. (I did give credit for this one, because I think it's more exciting to read than "competed").
People who live near the river bank are facing a nightmare because it's been raining poverty for almost a week! (Sad...)
What should we do to solve the drug insufficient problem in Thailand? (I'm sure some of my students feel that there are insufficient drugs in Thailand, but unless they tell me that with proper grammar, no credit.)
