Hello everyone,
Are the following sentences correct?
1. He was happy because his success in passing the exam.
2. He was happy because of his passing in the exam.
3. He was happy because of his passing the exam.
4. He was happy because of passing in the exam.
5. He was happy because of passing the exam.
6. The road was blocked because of demonstration.
I think #3 and #5 are incorrect, and in #5, "demonstration" needs "the".
Regards,
Joseph
