Task 1
No. 26 

The tree was blown over in the storm was cut into logs. (incorect)

Explanation: The sentence above is incorrect because there are two verbs, (was blown) and (was). The subject of the sentence is (the tree). The past participle (blown) should function as adjective and it doesn’t need (was) because it isn”t a part of verb

Task 2  

*texts in italics is called past participle*

* the bolded texts is called present participle*

            My activities during the absence of face-to-face lectures are doing home activities. Other than that, In addition, I do assignments as a student by doing assignments that have been given through vclass. Before this severe condition, I was still able to do activities outside the home such as, buying raw materials for my parents' shop and buying my personal needs such as cream and others. Now the condition is getting worse, many of the roads in my housing have been closed so, I can only do activities at home such as sports, cleaning the house, sunbathing in the morning and watching Korean dramas in my free time.

            I was very happy when it was first announced that the lecture would be closed, but after running for almost 1 month it made me unhappy with the current situation. The first assignment given by the lecturer was sometimes difficult, the level of understanding of the material was not as good as if we were doing face-to-face activities. Besides that, the conditions also make the situation become tense and make you feel uncomfortable by being in the home environment.

        My opinion with current conditions, both in terms of online lectures which I feel are quite burdensome to students because of the many tasks, difficult to understand, the timeframe of assignment being too fast and also signals that sometimes don't support doing on tasks in a fast time. It is difficult for us as students to ask assignments that are not understood by lecturers make things even more complicated.

          In terms of regional conditions, I think there are still many people who are ignoring the government's appeal which makes the spread of the Covid 19 virus even more widespread, The government's policy to release NAPI also caused public unrest.
