So this is the first time I'm marking reports *excited*.
And immediately my eyes glaze over at the lousy grammar, weird bombastic word choice (v. singaporean), and general lack of thinking. They're doing a report where they have to come up with a hypothesis on an aspect of primate evolution.
And roughly paraphrased, the first report I've read is - the mating patterns of Homo sapiens, sp. X and sp. Y are unknown...
I, ever the model of restraint, managed to control my comment to "You are not aware of the mating pattern of H. sapiens?"
My prof suggested I put in "You may be too young right now but someday you'll find out..." instead.
