Original: So many people live in the CITY. Each street is lined with big houses and cars zip up and down!

Corrected (simple): Many people live in the city. Each street has big houses, and cars zip up and down the street.

What we changed and why:

  • Capital letters: Use a big letter at the start of a sentence. 'CITY' should be 'city' because it is not a name of a place.
  • Shorter, clear words: 'Many people' sounds a little simpler than 'So many people,' but both are okay.
  • Punctuation: We put a comma before 'and' in the second sentence to help it read smoothly.
  • Meaning: You can say 'is lined with big houses' or 'has big houses' — both are correct.

Great sentence! Keep writing about places you see — you are doing well.
