Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
nikklg [1K]
<span>On Monday, July 1, Susan Martini, M.D., announced her engagement to Bob Taormina.

A comma between Monday and the date, July 1, is required. The comma after July 1 is needed because On Monday, July 1 is an introductory phrase. Traditional comma rules state that there needs to be a comma between the person's name and his or her title as well as after the title. The first comma shows that the title is not officially part of the person's name (think birth certificate). The second comma shows that the title is connected with the person's name and not a separate part of the sentence. Just a note, more recently it has been acceptable to leave these two commas out. You either have both commas or none. However, for an English assignment on comma rules, the correct answer would be to include the commas.

Which sentence is an example of an effective thesis statement for an argument about cancer funding?
yawa3891 [41]

The best example of a thesis statement is the following: "Funding for breast cancer should remain higher than the funding of other cancers because much of the funding is privately raised, the resulting research has proven beneficial for advancing the treatment of other cancers, and public support will demand the maintenance of current funding" (C).

A good thesis statement should be one sentence containing clearly:

  • the <u>main idea of the essay or paper</u>;
  • the <u>conclusion</u> you will be reaching as an answer to this question;
  • and, potentially, a summary of the <u>thread of ideas you will be developing</u> to come to this conclusion.

In statement C, the thesis is expressed directly and the author explains why this argument is important: current levels of research about breast cancer funding should at least be maintained, and prioritized over other forms of cancer, because this specific research helps us learn more about other cancers and how to treat them.

The author also adds an element which will appear in the development of ideas (the main body of the paper): the fact that the public opinion supports current breast cancer research funding levels.
