    Tudor food:
    In the Tudor times people did not have fridges or freezers to store their food in. The rich drank wine and people who lived near the river ate a lot of fish. People also ate different animals such a deer, pigs and oxen. They ate a lot of fruit and vegetables. Bread was eaten quite often but bread was different for the rich and the poor.
    They did not drink a lot of water as it would be polluted, (have) harmful bacteria and was filthy so that is why people drank wine. Water was considered as unhealthy because the sewage were (was) not clean. Most people drank ale but the rich drank wine because they could afford it and it was from Europe. They did not drink hot drinks and milk was for the lower class.

      I’m not sure what to say Musab. Did you write this? Because is doesn’t make much sense and is not the standard I expect from you.

    Tudor medicines
    Tudor medicine mostly consisted of herbal remedies. Poor Tudors would get basic health care from their own family members. Also the rich would get a lot of treatment. Herbal remedies were often known as ‘simples’ because most Tudor women would have known how to make them and it would be easy. The Tudors didn’t know about antibiotics.

    1. Mr Carter

      There are some really good facts here Danyaal so well done with your research.
      The main issue with your work is the sentences openers. Almost all sentences start with a noun or noun phrase. I have made them bold so you can see. This does not demonstrate GD writing which we know you can do.
      You need to use fronted adverbial and subordination more often… not all the time, but more than you do.
      Please can you rewrite one sentence from each paragraph to start with a fronted adverbial.
      For example:
      Poor people ate food like bread and vegetable and rich people ate food like expensive meat.
      change to:
      Unlike the rich who would eat lots of expensive meat, the poor ate brad and vegetables.
