A question: Is 'in the light of sb's words' used perfectly in this sentence? The sentence is out of context but it goes like this: These effects include processes of deforestation, the loss of natural areas such as places, in the light of P.S Bindraban., A.C Franke., D.O. Ferraro, C.M. Ghersa, L.A.P Lotz, A. Nepomuceno’s words, “in the northeast and northwest of Argentina” (2009, p.30) (...) There are many authors to name, but we cannot omit them...is there any other way of saying this sentence? Thanks a lot

I need to rephrase something and I don't know how!!! Thanks I don't know how to rephrase 'economically interest minded' in this sentence. I want to say that the company is just interested in its economic benefits. This is the sentence: Some of those dangerous practices are revealed in Marie-Monique Robin’s book (2008), The World According to Monsanto, which shows a company economically interest minded and whose actions are based on whatever it wants. Thanks a lot!

Are grammatically correct these sentences? She wants to go to the cinema, although I don't like that film. (I would say: She wants to go to the cinema, but I don't like that film). and what about this one? Tom studied a lot although he failed the test. (For me the best conjunction that joins the sentence is 'But', but I'm not sure; so for me it is better to say 'Tom studied a lot but he failed the test'). Please help me!!! Thanks in advance! =)

I have a doubt... I'm not sure whether the second sentences is ok in this dialogue... - We painted the pipes. - What was wrong with that? (I think this sentence is wrong. I´d say What was wrong with them?) - That were rusty. (This is also wrong- They were rusty). Am I ok?? Please correct me.

Can this sentence be considered right or not? I know that the correct version of this sentence is 'The doctor told me not to lift anything heavy' but if I say: 'The doctor told me to do not lift anything heavy' is this sentence correct or not? Thanks a lot!!

Is the same to say...? Is it the same to say electric appliances and electrical appliances? or which one is wrong? Thanks all

What is wrong with this sentence? There is something wrong in this sentence, but I have identified only one mistake, can you help me? Any living entity would die if deprived of food, oxygen or water, and so would any human being. I corrected the sentence in this way: Any living entity would die if WERE deprived of food, oxygen or water, and so would any human being. 'so would any human being' sounds awkward

Auction houses and Art One of the signs of the late capitalist perception of art is the growing predominance auction houses are gaining in the art market and the implementation of new techniques to maximize their profits. For instance, auction houses are offering guarantees to sellers to assure them they will get a fix amount of money regardless the price assigned to the work of art in auction. Therefore, if the work of art is sold at a higher price than the guaranteed amount, the auction house gets paid for the upside. At the same time, if the piece of art sells for less than the guaranteed amount, the auction house has to make up for the difference. This is a strategy to encourage artists and dealers to place their works in auctions, thus, expanding the art market and making it extremely profitable. This is a paragraph of an essay I'm writing. I want to know if it is ok. Thanks all

Is it ok if I say...? Is this sentence correct? There are some individuals, although not the majority, who do business out of art and get a profit from it. 'although not the majority' sounds awkward to me is it ok? Thanks a lot
