*NUMBER CHANGE*

If the sentence is singular, change it to the plural; if it is plural, change it to the singular.

The view from my window is quite extraordinary. It is one of the lake with a mountain in the background. On the shore of the lake, I can see a deer grazing. The wind rustles through a tree and a leaf falls to the ground.

Oh, my! I think this is an extremely hard sentence to change for me :( I hope most of the stuff is done correctly :)

I wasn't sure about the 'background' vs. 'backgrounds', but decided to leave it singular. ([countable usually singular] - the area that is behind the main thing that you are looking at, especially in a picture)

Well done, everyone!

Cecilia, be careful to maintain subject-verb agreement.

Olena, you were right to keep "background" singular.

Yu Jin, watch out for nouns that have no plural form: "deer" is both the singular and plural.
