    Thank you for your task @sabri & Happy New Year!!!

    If you have time (and voglia!) I would like you to try and re-write it, having a look at these notes.

    1. new is an adjective whereas news is an uncountable noun. That means we don’t use ‘a news’ and it is considered third person (the news is, not the news are)

    2. wrong word: suspect is a noun or verb. The word you need here is suspicion

    3. This sentence should be: decide not to give them to their children

    4. better to use people than persons

    5. verb agreement

    6. This sentence should be: The only method to check the trustworthiness of a piece of news is to consider and evaluate the origin, the source, and not give importance to pseudoscientific journals.

    7. wrong word: warranty > guarantee
