Can you tell me, a cup of, a glass of, a pair of, a set of. And so on, if they are adjective phrase and in order to modify the nouns after them?-- No, it is the other way around: the prepositional phrase after (of water, of soup, of glasses, etc) modify the noun (glass, cup, pair, set, etc).

" I don't like this kind of sentence." Whether the phrase "of sentence" is not correct?-- Yes, 'of sentence' is correct.
I mean "of sentence "should be written as "of a sentence "or of the sentence"-- 'of a sentence' is also used with 'kind', but 'of the sentence' cannot be used here.
" I don't like this kind of sentence." Whether the phrase "of sentence" is not correct?-- Yes, 'of sentence' is correct.
I mean "of sentence "should be written as "of a sentence "or of the sentence"-- 'of a sentence' is also used with 'kind', but 'of the sentence' cannot be used here.
