Which sentence uses correct punctuation?

English

Hello!

Let’s begin with the second sentence:

“To change your life,” said William James, start immediately and do it flamboyantly.”

This sentence is not correct because it does not contain an opening quotation mark before the word “start.” Therefore, we can eliminate the second sentence. Now for the third sentence:

Ms. Winters said, Do all of the math problems on page 98 for homework tonight.

This sentence is not correct. The sentence above contains a direct quotation but does not have opening or closing quotation marks. Therefore, we can eliminate the third sentence as well. Now for the fourth sentence:

“I hope I don’t have to go, Ron said, but if I do, I’ll try to have fun.”

This sentence is not correct. The sentence above does not contain a closing quotation mark after the word “go” nor an opening quotation mark before the word “but.” Therefore, we can eliminate the fourth sentence as well. That leaves only the first sentence:

”If you get a hamster, you’ll be responsible for its care,” my mother said.

This sentence makes proper use of both commas and quotation marks. That being said, we can now conclude that the first sentence is the only one to use correct punctuation.

I hope this helps!

•"If you get a hampster, you'll be responsible for it's care," my mother told me.

What is the main difference between a rhetorical speech and a purely argumentative speech?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: B. Rhetorical speeches appeal to listeners' emotions to persuade them.

Explanation: Because rhetoric will insist that the argument takes account of the human environment and that it is well connected with human sentiment. 1st difference: Rhetoric sees argumentation as a route to effective persuasion, whereas logic sees argumentation as a path to rational persuasion.

Read the excerpt from Animal Farm and the passage on the history of the Soviet Union.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

In this passage C is not mentioned at all. This is about leadership and how it is to be conducted.  

B is likely true but not emphasized. And certainly not mentioned in the historical note.

D is certainly true but not mentioned in the historical note.

A I think I'd pick A. It is stated in both passages. Don't be surprised if D is chosen.

Answer:

Spanish Version ( you will want to send in both the english and the spanish version of this essay! In spanish diary and journal means the same thing.)

Querido diario/diario,

Esto es extraño hablar y / o escribir en un libro. Me enseñaron a no hacer esto, pero solo necesito escribir. Entonces, hay una persona en mi clase que me pidió que escribiera esto y obtendría 50.00 dólares por eso, pero qué diablos. Cuando me levanto por primera vez alrededor de las 4:30 a.m., me levanto con mis zapatillas y me dirijo a la cocina, me saco un tazón enorme y lo lleno con leche, agrego slenda y como mi cereal especial K. Todos me llaman raro, pero bueno, supongo. Después de comer, subí las escaleras hacia mi baño, me lavé los dientes y el cabello, luego me puse el pelo en una cola de caballo para no pillar ningún piojo. Regreso a mi habitación y me visto, jeans de campana regulares y una camiseta ajustada junto con una camisa de manga larga a cuadros alrededor de mi cintura. Me puse un par de calcetines y seguí con mis botas vaqueras. Recibo mi bolso, tarea, zapatos tenis, zapatos planos, ropa extra y lo guardo en mi bolso. Regreso escaleras abajo y salgo corriendo de la casa para tomar el autobús porque no planeo llegar tarde porque perdí el autobús nuevamente. Llego a la escuela alrededor de las 7:30 a.m. y me dirijo a mi primera clase. Matemáticas, odio las matemáticas, pero aparentemente es una de mis mayores. Esa es mi mañana de prepararme para la escuela.
