Answer:

"You are going near the post office?" Mrs. Reid asked her husband.

"Yes," he said. "Is there anything you want?"

"Could you get me a small registered envelope, please?" Mrs. Reid said, "I've got to send some money to my sister in Guyana."

"Ok," Mr. Reid said. "I'll get a Coulee. It may be useful to have a spare one available."

Explanation:

There are many ways that this paragraph could be punctuated. However, in my interpretation, I used commas to integrate my quotation marks, etc.

For example:

"Ok," Mr. Reid said. "I'll get a Coulee. It may be useful to have a spare one available."

I decided to add a period to the end of "said." However, you could choose to do it differently. For example, you could choose to write it like this:

"Ok," Mr. Reid said, "I'll get a Coulee. It may be useful to have a spare one available."  

(Notice how I replaced the period with a comma? That simply means that "Ok and "I'll get a Coulee" is all one sentence versus two sentences. Both versions are grammatically correct. The writer simply needs to choose which one s/he wants.)

If an expository writing uses transitions such as for instance, for example, and by way of illustration, the passage most likely
Alexxx [7]

The correct answer is 1: Illustration-example.

Illustrations and examples are introduced by the transition phrases such as "for instance" and "for example". Some other linking words for giving examples are "to illustrate", "namely", and "such as". These linking words do not necessarily have to be at the beginning of the sentence.
