xt Reconstruction Exercise - 5

  1. To reconstruct or restore the text, type in a single word, a phrase, a letter or a group of letters.
  2. After you've finished typing your text, you will see that some of the words have an * = * sign before and/or after them. This simply means that you need to punctuate the passage/sentence(s).
  3. After a few guesses -- using automatic insert [point 1] -- you can also try to put in the missing words and letters manually by typing them into the text window below.
  4. Type in the punctuation marks.
    (N.B. the programme will not accept inverted commas
    " " --- key in an asterisk (*) instead. (e.g. *Help me, please!*)

 Example:

1. (...) =and what is the use of a book== thought Alice= =without pictures or conversations==

2. *and what is the use of a book=* thought Alice= *without pictures or conversations=*

3. *and what is the use of a book,* thought Alice, *without pictures or conversations?*

 


Type your guess word(s) or letter(s) here and wait for all the letters to appear in the above box:
