While reading the book, the character Mary thinks to herself that the world is a beautiful place. This is incorrect because it shifts from third person to first person without warning, which can be confusing for readers. A better way to phrase it might be: While reading the book, Mary considers the beauty of the world around her.

If I were to eat pizza every day, I would be happy. This is incorrect because the first part of the sentence uses the subjunctive mood (were to eat) and the second part uses the conditional mood (would be happy). The shift in mood can be jarring for the reader and disrupt the flow of the sentence. A better way to phrase it might be: If I ate pizza every day, I would be happy. This sentence maintains the conditional mood throughout.

Although it was raining, Mary decided to go for a walk in the park anyways. This is incorrect because "anyways" is not a proper word and it shifts from third person to second person without warning, making the sentence sound unprofessional. A better way to phrase it might be: Although it was raining, Mary decided to go for a walk in the park anyway. This sentence uses the term "anyway" instead of "anyways," and it keeps the point of view consistent in third person.
