Automobiles

1 Automobiles radically changed the human society. Now its

hard to 2- imagine to live without automobiles.

3- No one can ignore its important, and the benefits of them,

but the bad 4 -driving habits such as, using cell phones while
driving, driving above the 5- speed limit, and cutting other
cars of.

6- First of all, using cell phone while driving, unfortunately

its became 7- common among most drivers nowadays,
while talking on cell phone may be 8-legal in some places under
some circumstances, its still a bad habit to have. 9-It puts you
and others at risk.

10- In West Bank, the person who is talking on the phone

while driving will 11-be fined 1500 shekels, so avoid falling in
this problem.

12-In addition, to using cell phones while driving, driving

above limit speed is 13-one of the biggest reasons car accidents
happen, and it leads to many of the 14-other behaviours badly,
especially when you are driving through a school 15-zone,
dont forget posted speed limits are not meant to be
suggestions.

16- A long with using cell phone while driving, and driving
above speed limits, 17-cutting other cars off puts you in
dangers. For instance, they drive zigzag to 18-show how brave
they are. Even you are in a hurry, try to stay in line keep 19-
yourself and others safe.

20- To include, automobiles have improved for our lives and

bad driving 21- habits are endangering everyone because
they create hazardous conditions.
22- They should control their habits and learn to drive safely.
 Jaffa

1- Last summer, I went with my family to Jaffa. I visited it for

the first time. 2-It was a wonderful journey. I will not forget it. I
have decided to visit this city 3-next summer because it is a
wonderful place. It is an amazing place. It is an 4-amazing
place since it has a wonderful weather, beautiful beach and
ancient 5-houses.

6- To begin with, I enjoyed my time that day because the

weather was 7-amazing. First of all, the weather was
warm. The sunshines were cosy and 8-not caustic. Moreover,
the air was pure and clean. Furthermore, the trills of 9-the birds
made the place wonderful. The scene of the sunset was
amazing. 10-This harmony between the components of the
nature amazed me and made 11-the place very beautiful.

12- The other thing that made the place marvellous is the
beach of the 13-sea.First of all, the sand was very clean as
gold. In addition, the waves were 14-calm, so I could swim
safely. The seats were very comfortable. Furthermore, 15-the
ships looked very beautiful in the middle of the sea. It seemed
as 16-beautiful stars in the sky. It was a beautiful show
that made me eager to 17-visit in another time.

18- The exgistance, of Jaffa city .... with the ancient houses
which overlook 19-on the sea. Moreover, it is surrounded with
beautiful limo and orange trees. 20-Furthermore, they were
interrelated with each other and that indicates co-21-operation
between people.
 My first English class

1 My first English class was at 9:00am. It was my first

lecture in the 2-university, so I felt scared. However
when the teacher started talking I felt 3-relaxed. The teacher
was very nice.

4-The students were first year students and that reduced my

stress. The hall 5-was very beautiful and comfortable.
Furthermore, the teacher encouraged us 6-by telling us that the
subject is easy. In the class, I met my best friend 7-
Mahmoud. It was interesting class. Moreover, it was a beautiful
beginning for 8-my university life. At the end of the lecture, I
was eager to the next one. In 9-addition, it gave me the
confident to attend the other classes, finally I felt 10-excited to
learn English language. I will not forget that lecture.

To conclude this paper I found that student in writing especially
in writing

Courses made a lot of mistakes such as semantic, syntactic

errors and many

other mistakes which it can be seen clearly according to their

essays for

example the wrong formation of sentence ,punctuation errors,

adding or

omitting needless word ,sentences fragment , proposition and

many other

errors occur intentionally or unintentionally this students should

take care

about their writing by practicing a lot and they have to know

their mistakes

when they look back in their mistakes or if they take in

consideration what I

showed in this term paper in order to know their errors and to

avoid it in the

future.

Term paper

Error Analysis

Dr. Mahmoud shreiteh

Abstract:
The purpose of this term paper is to discover errors committed

by 25 students In this paper, I will try to find out the mistakes in

essays: Jaffa, Automobiles, and my fist English class which were

written by English students who took Writing courses. In this

paper, I mentioned the errors in addition to the reconstruction,

numbered the lines under the name of code.at last I showed

the classification exposing the main category and the genre

.these students committed interlingual errors which are

committed by the influence if the first language .moreover,

they made confusion between words in addition to other errors

such as redundancy and using non-referential words According

to my paper I also noticed that they also made errors maybe

due to ignorance of rule restriction ,also they sometimes use

sentence fragment in their writing which makes the sentence

without complete meaning or thought .in addition they adding

needless prepositions, comma, copula, and morphemes or

omitting needed that mentioned in the previous, also I found

that they were using the wrong form tenses instead of the

correct ones such as using past simple instead of present

perfect. Furthermore they were making errors intentionally.

Another cause of errors that I noticed is word-for-word

translation or literal translation, using this strategy makes any

sentence, paragraph or essay sounds weak and lacks of

coherence and cohesion.
