RD found!

Remember how I wasted some precious minutes in class, making you score through your stacks of files and books only to a futile search of the missing RD?

I found it. It was with me all the time. The magazine showed itself as I was tidying my cluttered table. It was wedged snugly between my books that I lugged along with some of your worksheets to the staff room after class.

So, Jacelyn, the copy you are reading is yours, not mine. :)

Anyone can spot a mistake in this post? Click on comments and post it!

It should be making you scored through your stacks of files and books,instead of making you score through your stacks of files and books.

The tense of score is wrong.

I think it is 'So, Jacelyn, the copy you are holding is yours, not mine. :)'and not 'So, Jacelyn, the copy you are reading is yours, not mine. :)'
hence the mistake is the change of 'reading' to 'holding'.

Shirley, making you scored is very wrong.
making = v1
you = o
score = v2

Yan Bo, there's nothing wrong with 'holding' although your suggestion is of using 'reading' is fine.

Madam toh, i think that the mistake is"making you (Score) through your stacks of files and books only to a futile search of the missing RD? the correct word should be (scour)

i thought scour means remove dirt?

did you found the reader's digest when you are tidying the table?

At first,you did not say RD was a magazine,and at the second paragraph you say the 'magazine' which magazine? if the person who read did not know what RD is, he will ask you what magazine.although it is quite obvious it is the RD,but i remember a teacher say when you want to repeat something you need write its name again.

and i check.maybe hwee hean was correct of his scour since there is no score through at all.

i thought lugged means pull with effort? do you lugged our worksheet?




if i spot wrongly nevermind can since i also don't know whether it is a mistake or not. i just playing...

Well...
This is from my dictionary...
Score through meens to cancel by drawing a line through...
And there is a second meaning of scour-to travel over(an area) to search of something or to search thoroughly, so scour might be possible
