Answer:
- The sun is shining; however, it is quite a windy day.
Explanation:
Punctuation is elucidated as the set of signs or symbols(like a comma, full stop, question mark, exclamation mark, colon, etc.) that indicate the grammatical construction of the sentences to the readers that assists the readers to read it accordingly. It not only enhances the readability of the sentences but also clarifies its meaning.
As per the question, the given sentence could be punctuated accurately as mentioned above. <u>The use of a semicolon(;) helps link two independent clauses('the sun is shining' and 'it is quite a windy day') while a comma(,) after however signals that it is functioning as an adverbial conjunct to link the clauses</u>. Thus, the final sentence reads as:
'The sun is shining; however, it is quite a windy day.'
Answer:
C). Sentence 3 should be revised to read, "My next stop will be old Mr. Butterworth's for a ch-at with my favorite neighbor."
Explanation:
As per the question, the revision must be made to the third sentence in order to continue the parallel structure as it follows the similar sentence structure of the previous sentences i.e. 'will be' (future tense). The use of the same or repeated grammatical structures in consecutive sentences gives equal significance to every idea and makes it more effective and memorable while adding a flow to it. It also assists in making the ideas easier to understand by adding an order to the ideas. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
