Take my mother, who teaches. My father, a fine old Southern gentleman, opposes her teaching because he was raised to believe that men should work and women should stay at home unless the family needed a second income. Though our family doesn’t need a second income, my mother likes her job and won’t give it up. To solve the problem, they have agreed that he buys the necessities, and she buys the luxuries.Task 3 Try to find the problems in the following paragraph and rewrite it.(The following paragraph is an example of over-coordination, or writing with too many compound sentences.)John F. Kennedy was the 35th President of the United States, and he was born in Brookline, Massachusetts in 1917. His father was Ambassador to England, so he was exposed to politics at an early age. Kennedy decided to enter the political arena（竞技场）, so he ran for Congress fromMassachusetts, and he was elected to the Senate in 1953. His term ended in 1960, for he was elected President that same year at the age of 43. He was the first Roman Catholic, and he was the youngest man ever to occupy the presidency. He had planned to run again in the 1964 election year, but he was assassinated on November 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas. Kennedy served America for such a short time, yet he inspired people all over the free world because of his youth, his spirit and his style.ReferenceJohn F.
