Are these capital words in their right place? 1-It's wrong to make FUN of people who cannot defend themselves. Okay
2-The unfortunate accident to one of the trapeze artists spoiled our ENJOYMENT of the circus. Okay
3-The children played a JOKE on the French teacher by balancing a bucket of water on the door, and to their AMUSEMENT,he was soaked to the skin. "That's not funny!" he said angrily. This is my new suit".
4- The cinema used to charge an AMUSEMENT tax on the price of the seats, but I don't think they do now.
5-He's said to have a dining room that holds 600 people, and an orchestra that plays for the ENTERTAINMENT of his guests during dinner. Okay, but you need a space after the comma.
6-I went to one of his parties once but it wasn't much FUN. He spent most of his time making JOKES at other people's expense. Of course,if you listen to him without showing the least sign of AMUSEMENT, he doen't like it. "Why are you looking so upset?" he says. I didn't mean it. I only said it in JEST." (or "as a joke" instead of "in jest") |
