Hi Gurpreet
Here are my suggestions and comments:
1. I am trying to bring my music on for the rest of my life. I love music.I assume you want to use "bring on", but it doesn't work in this sentence. You could write something like this, for example: His illness was brought on by overwork and a lack of sleep.
2. She is the woman who brought about all that chaos.The word "only" does not work well in this sentence. You should omit it.
3. She is so rude towards everyone that it is as if she had been brought up by step-parents.My suggested changes are in boldface type. (I'm not quite sure why step-parents would automatically be the cause someone's rudeness, however.)
4. She doesn't want to bring her daughter in to resolve this whole matter.OK
5. Within a month after father's death, his sons brought his business down.
6. This newspaper brought out a special edition to cover the election.
7. There was a serious charge brought against him. 8. The murderer had been brought before the judge (in the court).You need to the word "the", and you don't really need to say "in the court".
9. She is bringing off a great success by getting her medical degree.OK
10. Finally, the truth was brought to light in front of all the people.OK _________________ "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." ~ Abraham Lincoln |
