第二段： With touch, we meet the world outside of ourselves in a vibrant, alive, nourishing way. With touch we meet, connect, bond, belong.
其中alive是敘述形容詞，只能用做補語，不能用做屬性形容詞放在名詞前。第二句中連續四個動詞相連，最後一個動詞belong前應該有and。
第三段：But we are losing the something grand and mysterious that makes us compassionate - and passionate human creatures.
but是連接詞，前面應該還有句子。口語中用but是被允許的；在文語(書面語)中就應該使用however。另外，something前面不應該再有冠詞the了。
