Sara: Good sentence, but that's not the subject noun;-)

Jiaping: Just one type of change to the sentence--the next student has to build on that. For that reason, I am deleting your other two posts. Wait for another student to change your sentence, and then you can make another change;-) Your first change is a good one.
