Enclosing into brackets this element or that is important in that it shows what potential conjoins are to be dealt with - in my book, we deal with predicates, but, according to your understanding, the predications are in question. If the latter approach is adopted, we indeed recognise the possibility of ellipsis. However, the stumbling stone in our case is the issue of negation .

 Can I use both includes and involves to fit in the above? 
 Besides, does the above sound good? If not, how should I make it sound better?

I just Googled TESOL certification online. I didn&amp;#39;t know if this was even possible but apparently... it is!  I did not go through all of the information so I do not know the whys and the hows but too many questions (and a lot of red flags) are popping up in my mind.   Looking back on my certification process, I think that the value of it was precisely the fact that it was a huge &amp;quot;fuzz&amp;quot;. I pride myself on having completed something that was definitely not fast and definitely not easy. If something is worth doing (and teaching is), it is worth doing well.   I really hope you reconsider this idea!</description></item><item><title>How come you haven't let me know?</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/HowComeYouHaventLetMeKnow/lwzkm/post.htm</link><pubDate>Mon, 02 Nov 2009 08:34:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:959662</guid><dc:creator>vince</dc:creator><description>Hi all, 
  
 I&amp;#39;m back from a loong holiday :-) Now I&amp;#39;m teaching English again, and I&amp;#39;m running into trouble... At the school I teach (Dutch school) we use a book that&amp;#39;s not always as clear as it should be. Even I don&amp;#39;t always know the answer  
  
 So, we have the following sentence: 
  
 How come you didn&amp;#39;t let / haven&amp;#39;t let me know about her accident? 
  
 The pupils have to choose whether to use the past simple or present perfect. Honestly: I have no clue what to do with this sentence. To me, it sounds wrong, no matter which one I choose. I&amp;#39;d say: How come you didn&amp;#39;t tell / haven&amp;#39;t told me about her accident? But then, which one is right, or are they both right? 
  
 Hope you can...</description></item><item><title>Re: IELTS and TOFEL</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IeltsAndTofel/lhvhv/post.htm#958726</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Nov 2009 08:11:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:958726</guid><dc:creator>mister micawber</dc:creator><description>There are free sample official TOEFL questions HERE , for instance.

 1. a (0), b(0) 
  
 2. a (0), b(the) 
  
 3. a(0) 
  
 4. a(0) 
  
 1. Communication, learning and teaching can all be seen as abstract nouns which take no article if used in a general sense. Sometimes when you&amp;#39;re referring to a particular instance of an abstract noun phrase you can use &amp;#39;a&amp;#39;. (Simplex communication is a one way communication ...). 
  
 2. Modifying phrases don&amp;#39;t often influence the choice of articles. In your examples the words being modified are &amp;#39;teaching and learning&amp;#39; so no article is needed. 
  
 3. The structure (the + noun phrase + of + (a, 0) noun phrase) is often used in this way
