Proofread the following extracts and correct any errors in verb tenses.

blagie [28]

1- The ancient Chinese board game “Go” is invented long before there was any writing to record its rules. A game from the impossibly distant past has now brought us closer to a moment that once seemed part of an impossibly distant future: a time when machines are cleverer than we are.

Because it's an action that started and finished in the past, this should read was (Simple Past)

2- For years, Go was considered the last redoubt against the march of computers. Machines might win at chess, draughts, Othello, three-dimensional noughts and crosses, Monopoly, bridge, and poker. Go, though, is different.

This continues the same line of mistake as the first paragraph. Because it's referencing something that already happened ("Go was considered...), this should read was (Simple Past).

The game required intuition, strategising and character reading, along with vast numbers of moves and permutations. According to legend, it was invented by a Chinese emperor to teach his subjects balance and patience: qualities unique to human intelligence.

The conjunction and is used before the last element in a list. In this case, this word should be substituted by a comma because character reading is not the last element on that list.

3- This week, though, a computer called Alpha Go defeats the world’s best player of Go. It did so by “ learning” the game, crunching through 30 million positions from recorded matches, reacting and anticipating. It evolves as a player and taught itself.

That single game of Go marks a milestone on the road to the “technological singularity”, the moment when artificial intelligence becomes capable of self-improvement and learns faster than humans can control or understand.

These should read defeated ... evolved. This continues the same line of thought on subject-verb agreement. If it's talking about a past event, and the rest of the paragraph sustains that idea, then these verbs should be in Simple Past.

Narrative Writing: Removing Irrelevant Details paragraph below has one sentence that is not relevant to the narrative. Cross out

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Last Saturday was a perfect day. My cousins Reid and Bella came to visit. We decided to go to the park for a picnic. The sun shone brightly and sparkled on the water as we laid out a colorful blanket near the lake. We told jokes and laughed as we ate our lunch under the shade of the trees. My favorite sandwich is grilled cheese, but we didn't bring any of those. After lunch, Reid took out his new dragon-shaped kite, and we watched as it rose into the sky and danced among the clouds. As we watched the kite fly higher and higher, we all agreed that this was the best day ever!

(Bold = delete sentence)

Explanation:

The narrator is talking about his/her day and what s/he and his/her cousins did at the park. Grilled cheese sandwiches are irrelevant to the story because they didn't even bring it to the picnic.
