Hallo,
The extract from the book „The Epic City“ written by Kushanava Chaudhury( Hier fehlt eine Konjunktion.) published in 2017 is about the authors (Grammatik) childhood in New Jersey and his family.
The parents of Chaudhury (besser: s-Genitiv) already moved twice to America and moved twice back to India. They are both scientists, who cannot decide, (Grammatik) between their hometown and career opportunities abroad. (keine Kommas)
As (= Da/Weil, nicht als.) his father is forty years old, he quits his job at a government research institute in Calcutta for better career opportunities in Highland Park, New Jersey. However the job opportunities (kein Komma) turn out to be weaker, so Choudhury‘s father has to take on work in fields, which he hates.
Although they do not see themselves as immigrants and prepare sometimes (= manchmal) to go somewhere else, they stay in New Jersey (Komma) and Chaudhurry has a great childhood in New Jersey (Wiederholung). After Choudhurry‘s senior year he is accepted (Wort) at (---) Princeton University. As a result, his parents are really excited, because it is one of the best universities in the USA and the university (Formulierung) determines a lot in life. Although Chaudhurry acknowledges (kein Komma) that it is one of the greatest universities (Wiederholung), its (Grammatik) difficult for him to decide (Was entscheiden?). He is unsure, whether he should go to Princeton or to visit his home town for a year. Chaudhurry decides to visit his hometown (Wiederholung), but his parents do not allow him to take a year off, because it is (Hier fehlt der unbestimmte Artikel) well know university and a great opportunity for Chaudhury. As a result, he studys (Rechtschreibung) at Princeton and then goes to Calcutta.
Das Fettgedruckte muss korrigiert, das Kursivgedruckte überdacht werden. Ich hoffe, ich habe nichts übersehen.
Für das Vokabular und die Rechtschreibung empfehle ich ein gutes (online) Wörterbuch, z.B. pons.com,
für die Grammatik ego4u.de und englisch-hilfen.de - und Finger weg vom Google Übelsetzer und seinen tr.tteligen Kollegen!
