Answer: The sentence that is correctly punctuated is "I was born December 16, 1967 in Seattle, Washington," said Sheila.

Explanation: Punctuation rules state that, when writing dates, a comma must be included between the day of the month and the year. Therefore, there must be a comma between "16" and "1967". Moreover, a comma that separates the city ("Seattle") from the state ("Washington") must also be included. Furthermore, <u>no comma should be added after the year and before the preposition "in"</u>; however, <u>another comma should be included before the final quotation mark</u> in order to indicate that the words that are inside the quotation marks have been pronounced by someone else ("Sheila").

Which always happens during active reading?
Mashutka [201]

What always happens during active reading is A. The reader is engaged with and thinking about a text.

The definition of <em>active reading is reading something with attention, engagement, and determination to understand it.</em> When the reader engages critically with the content, asking himself or herself assessment questions during his or her reading, writing down key-words and pondering about the content, he or she is reading actively. <em>It consists of a comprehension technique that necessarily depends on the reader's engagement with the text.</em> Therefore, the correct answer is A.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>B. The reader is reading a piece of literature aloud.</em> Reading aloud is <em>one of the techniques used in active reading, but it isn't necessary and it doesn't always happen during active reading.</em> Some people use this technique in order to focus better. Some people prefer reading silently, but use other techniques to engage with the reading. So, the correct answer couldn't be B.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>C. The reader is thinking about an author's other works</em>. Collecting research information and data from an author's other works<em> can help the reader engage and have more ideas about the text he or she is reading, but it is not something necessary to read actively,</em> therefore, it doesn't happen always during active reading. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be C.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>D. The reader is summarizing a text. Summarizing a text is just another technique</em> used to engage with the text. There are <em>many different techniques used to read actively</em>, and summarizing is one of them. Not everybody uses the same techniques because everyone's learning process is different. T<em>hey don't have to use the same techniques, as long as they engage and read critically in order to understand the content</em> of what they are reading. Hence, the correct answer couldn't be D.

What is the Prepositional phrase in You must not go until friday
Natalija [7]

The prepositional phrase for this sentence is "go until Friday." The word "go" is a preposition. Think of it as a squirrel and a log. To find a preposition, say "The squirrel (went) [insert preposition] the log." If it makes sense, it is a preposition. Then just find the phrase to go along with it!
