While Roberto Clemente amassed a mountain of impressive statistics during his baseball career, he was often mocked by the print

media in the United States for his heavy Spanish accent. Clemente was also subjected to the double discrimination of being a foreigner and being black in a racially segregated society. Although the media tried to call him "Bob" or "Bobby" and many of his baseball cards use "Bob," Clemente explicitly rejected those nicknames, stating in no uncertain terms that his name was Roberto. There was also confusion over the correct form of his surname. For 27 years the plaque at the National Baseball Hall of Fame read "Roberto Walker Clemente," mistakenly placing his mother's maiden name before his father's surname. Only in 2000 was it changed to its proper Latin American form, Roberto Clemente Walker.
This excerpt would most likely inspire a story about

A. the campaign to correct Roberto Clemente's name in the Hall of Fame
B. the impressive baseball career of Roberto Clemente
C. the marriage of Roberto Clemente's parents
D. the nicknames earned by Roberto Clemente during his career

<h3>Why do we need grammar?</h3>

Grammar is significant because the language allows us to discourse about language, which is why it is so vital. Grammar describes the many kinds of words and word groups that can be found in sentences in any language, not only English. Even as young children, all of us can use language and construct complete phrases. However, being able to discuss the types of words and word groupings that make up sentences, as well as how sentences are put together, requires knowledge of grammar. Grammar knowledge also provides a glimpse into the human mind and our incredibly sophisticated cognitive ability.
