Answer:

A. When we were driving to Wisconsin​, the car overheated.

Explanation:

Commas are the punctuation marks that are used to signify a pause in a sentence. It doesn't mean there is a necessary stop but it allows for a short stop along the sentence. It is also used in the middle of a sentence to separate ideas or themes in a sentence.

In the given sentence, the first part of the sentence is the process of driving and then the overheating happens which is a separate idea in itself but still connected to the first part. So, the correct place to put the comma will be right after the word "Wisconsin", before the next part comes.  

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Read the excerpt from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontě.
Gala2k [10]

Explanation:

Here, Helen is talking about Miss Temple.

Miss Temple is full of goodness; it pains her to be

severe to any one, even the worst in the school: she

sees my errors, and tells me of them gently; and, if I do

anything worthy of praise, she gives me my meed

liberally. One strong proof of my wretchedly defective

nature is, that even her expostulations, so mild, so

rational, have not influence to cure me of my faults; and

even her praise, though I value it most highly, cannot

stimulate me to continued care and foresight.

Based on this excerpt, what does Helen think about

herself?

O She has faults and weaknesses that she hasn't been

able to overcome.

O She is one of Miss Temple's best and favorite

students.

O She does not appreciate her teachers enough.

O She tries to live up to Miss Temple's expectations.

QveST [7]
Often people take vacations to tropical islands often like the Bahamas.  Although the Bahamas is a wonderful relaxing spot, Bora Bora, Tahiti is a wonderful spot to also vacation at. The waters are clear, and smooth along with a calm wave occasionally. Also a calm ocean smell with a warm sand. Another reason to go to tropical islands is because it is said to make you a happier, calmer, nicer person. Too much stress can cause someone to overthink at work and or school. Another reason is because a hammock is way healthier than a bed!
