Grammaticaly correct sentences (or not...)

by "myname" <lslfkjs@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 24, 2008 at 11:58 AM

Hello,

as part of the writing of a program that will check grammar,
we have to use a set of correct and incorrect sentences:

1) Two first class honors Carl wants among his senior sophister students 
this year
2) It is a picnic that Mel wants Val to try to enjoy
3) It is a picnic that Mel thinks is going to be enjoyed by Mel
4) It is a picnic that Mel thinks are going to be enjoyed by Mel
5) It is a picnic that Mel thinks that is going to be enjoyed by Mel
6) Mel thinks a picnic is going to be enjoyed by Mel
7) Mel thinks that a picnic is going to be enjoyed by Mel
8) To Mel Leslie seems to want to give a book
9) It is Mel that Leslie seems to want to give a book to
10) It is a book that Leslie seems to want to give to Mel

But in fact, I have doubts. It seems to me that
(considering grammatical aspects only) :

Correct sentences : 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10
Incorrect sentences : 4
Big doubts : 1 (incorrect that way, but correct as part of a larger
sentence 
?), 8

What's your opinion ?

Thanks !
