Four Wheels Bad - Two Wheels Good
As the nights draw in and the rain lashes down, it's all too easy to keep yourself indoors wrapped up against the ills and
chills. Or, if you have to venture out, doing so only if cocooned in your car with the heating on full blast...
Dr Terrence Latimer, Chief Medical Officer for the famous Team Turbulence, says;
"The key is not to separate riding a bike from your other daily activities, but on the contrary to integrate it. Riding to work
is the best activity, as that gets you in the saddle every day however, not everyone lives close enough to the office to do
that. You don't have to pedal the whole distance, though, as some trains do allow bikes on board. Where to put your bike
at work can also be a concern, but if space is an issue then technology has the answer folding bikes.

I'm about 95% sure I got the 4 mistakes (I tried making them bold and underlined to stand out)! I want to explain the usage of colons/semi-colons though to help you in the future.

Colons are usually used in place of a dash (-) and can be used for listing items or noting them. I think the last sentence is a perfect example of that. Notice how "folding bikes" is being noted as "the answer." This would be the perfect place to put a colon, therefore: "... if space is an issue then technology has the answer: folding bikes."

Semi-colons are used as a break in a sentence. Sometimes people use it as a "period" to continue two thoughts in a sentence that go together, but are different enough to where they need a break in between. Semi-colons are also used many times before words like "therefore" or "however." I'm sure there's a list out there, but those two were the first to come to mind.

I hope this helps! :)

The Nest

Randall squinted up through the trees, trying to gauge the time, but gave up quickly. He should have paid attention when his father taught the family to read the position of the sun. He should have paid attention, too, before sneaking off this morning on his first solo hike, forgetting the whistle his mother stressed he always bring.

He pictured his parents now at their camp beneath the tree with the eagle’s nest, wondering where he was. Randall was wondering the same thing. Lost and out of food, he feared he had but a few hours before darkness closed in, trapping him in the bitter cold with the creatures of the night.

He closed his eyes to fight back tears, when he heard it in the distance. Water! His father’s words came flowing into his mind; one tip he actually remembered. “If you’re ever lost, find a river and follow it.”

In a flash, he was on his feet, scaling fallen trees, tearing through brush, frantically following the sound. The sky grew darker, but the noise grew louder, and Randall, tired and scared, forged ahead until he found it. He reached the river bank and was mulling his next move when a sudden splash caught his eye.

A majestic eagle rose from the water, soaring skyward with a freshly caught fish in its talons. Could it be the same eagle nested above his camp? It glided triumphantly into a high nest a short distance away, eager to greet its family. Randall smiled, equally triumphant, eager to do the same as he followed the eagle’s flight.

In the distance, he saw his mother, his whistle clutched in her hand.

Slapstick is also known as physical comedy, meaning it
has more actions than words. Most people think of
slapstick as people hitting one another and then falling
down, much like the style of The Three Stooges® What
they do not always know is that slapstick comedians
are masters of timing, with a flair for the dramatic. They
create the illusion of hitting and falling, without causing
injury to the performers. They stay safe while the
audience laughs hysterically
O a diagram of how The Three Stooges perform a
