1-I'd like to know the name of the man who is responsable for checking the tickets of the pessengers on a train.
2-a*The map shows me where is the location of museum exaclty.
b*Technology is a means for the progress and the development of humanity.
Are these two sentences correct?
3-The thief robbed the bank and killed the guard.
How can I rewrite this sentence using *as well as* in the middle of it?
4-What is the difference between *source* and *resource*?

1. He (usually a man) is the conductor.

2a. I would write it, "The map shows me the exact location of the museum."

2b. [Pass]

3. How about, "The man was charged with robbing the bank as well as killing the guard."

4. [Pass]

2b. the sentence is correct

3. you could also write...the man robbed the bank, killing the guard.

the guard was killed when a man robbed the bank.

resource - a means of supplying a want or deficiency; possiblity of aid or assistance.

People who check tickets are also sometimes called inspectors.
