Answer:

You woke up at night and saw a house on fire....:

One day I had decided to take off from school to prepare for my Board examination. My mother went out as I was there to take care of my little sister. I was studying and my sister was sleeping. Suddenly I noticed it was past eight in the night and my mom was not back home. It was raining very heavily. My mom rang up to say that she was in her friends’ house as the roads were flooded and she would return as soon as the rain stopped.

I told her to be safe and I would take care of my sister and she could come the next day morning. Giving assurance I gave dinner to my sister and after locking the house both of us went to sleep. Suddenly, I heard a terrible noise outside. I was scared but nonetheless I opened the window and saw that there was a fire in the opposite building. There was chaos all around.

The rain had stopped but there was heavy wind blowing. Due to the rains, the transformer which was in front of the building had caught fire and because of the wind, it spread quickly to the trees beside and into the building wires. The transformer burst and the people of the building were stranded. We called the fire service. We started pouring water and as there was a construction site besides, we tried to take sand and pour it but due to rain, the sand was all wet and so it was of no use.

Luckily, we had a big hose and we tried to blow out the fire with the help of water through the hose. It was a good try but not enough for the huge fire. The fire service people came and started their work and it took about one hour to put off the fire completely. They were able to escort the residents safely outside the building as the fire had started in the terrace area. So, the residents were taken out safely and we let them stay at our houses for the night as some damages had taken place.

7. a. short story, “The Tell-Tale Heart,”

8. d. but-an eyesore

9. b. “sale,”

10. c. “Leinengen versus the Ants,”

Explanation:

1. All of the people at the school, including the teachers and b. students, were glad when summer break came.

The use of "students," ends the dependent clause.

2. Sit up straight c. .

The sentence is a simple statement so ends with a full-stop.

3. They asked what time the department store would open b. .

It is a simple statement so ends with a full-stop.

4. Who do you think will win the contest c. ?

A question, so ends with a question mark.

5. Choose the sentence below with the correct punctuation.

a. Ted and Janice, who had been friends for years, went on vacation together every summer.

The use of the comma before and after the dependent clause provides an added information to Ted and Janice.

6. To a. everybody’s surprise, Anne was on time for her math class.

Everybody is already a plural, so the apostrophe comes before the "s".

7. In Edgar Allen Poe’s a. short story, “The Tell-Tale Heart,” Edgar Allen Poe describes a man with a guilty conscience.

The name of the short story must be written within quotation marks, and the use of the "," after "short story" provides an introduction or detail of the work that is talked about.

8. Billboards are considered an important part of advertising for big business, d. but-an eyesore by their critics.

The use of "-" shows the connection of the two words in the sentence.

9. I can never remember how to use those two common words, “sell,” meaning to trade a product for money, or b. “sale,” meaning an event where products are traded for less money than usual.

Putting the word "sale" in between quotation marks provides the same intention of the specific word that is dealt with.

10. The class just finished reading c. “Leinengen versus the Ants,” a short story by Carl Stephenson about a plantation owner’s battle with army ants.

Names of books are to be put within quotation marks/ inverted commas.
