Dear Sister I've no idea how to spot the errors in these kind of sentences. Either an expert or an astute reader can point the errors out of otherwise semingly correct sentences.I'd realy appreciate if you could solve this question, simaltaneously correcting and evaluating it.Thanks alot for time that you have given to this post and I hope that you will continue helping the beginners like I'm.

Correct the following sentences.
(1) Playing a game regularly is
better than to read books
always.
(2) A good reader must be
hardworking and possess intelligence.
(3) I noticed Akbar was
carrying a bag in his hand.
(4) Having entered his house,
the door was shut at one.
(5) He thinks that his writing is better than his friend.
(6) He is such a man who is
liked by everyone.
(7) I sent a verbal message to
my friend.
(8) He has visited as many historical places as one has or

St Peter’s of Rome is the largest of all other churches.



The amount they receive in wages is greater than that of twenty years ago.



They succeeded hardly making any effort.



What have you done !

@Farrah
2. The fact that I had drowned makes me very careful about water safety whenever I go swimming.
3. Didn't they consider it as quite convincing.
4. St Peter's in/of Rome is the largest church/ of all churches. (it's superlative not comparative)
6. They succeeded making hardly any effort. (hardly is adverb of manner, it follows the verb) e.g "he wrote the letter carefully" and not "he carefully wrote the letter"
