He was not only a really sharp boss but also a very focussed person. In addition, he was pretty gregarious.Anyway, he left the company to set up his own business, and he made a real success of it. He went from being one person, to now having a team of 10, and has become one of the leading technology firms in his area.Why:I feel extremely proud of him, because he deserved to do well. I am sure he will continue to grow and do well in his future endeavors.If I had known he was going to leave the organization, I would have engaged with him more frequently so that I could learn more.
  • Unlike some of the other teachers, he never lost her temper. 
  • He was very calm and easy-going and he was also very broad-minded.
  • Also, all of my friends are trustworthy and easy-going like me, plus we are all extroverts.

Noun Phrase

A noun phrase is either a pronoun or any group of words that can be replaced by a pronoun. For example, 'they', 'cars', and 'the cars' are noun phrases, but 'car' is just a noun, as you can see in these sentences (in which the noun phrases are all in bold)

Q: Do you like cars?
A: Yes, I like them.
Q: Do you like the cars over there?
A: Yes, they are nice.
Q: Do you like the car I bought last week?
A: Yes, I like it. (Note: 'It' refers to 'the car', not 'car')

  • "The very tall education consultant with the roving eye"

    The structure of this noun phrase contains three sections:
  • Pre-modification
    • The =determiner
    • very =adverb (intensifying)
    • tall = adjective
    • education = pre-modifying noun
  • Head noun
    • consultant
  • Post-modification
    • with the roving eye = preposition phrase
