What does punctuation indicate about how a passage should be read aloud? Choose four correct answers. Come to a complete halt wh
krek1111 [17]

Answer: Raise your volume when you read a sentence with an exclamation point to show exciteme

Pause briefly when you reach a comma, and pause a bit longer at a semicolon.

Come to a complete halt when you reach a period.

Make your voice rise to a higher pitch at the end of sentences with a question mark.

Explanation:

Those four correct answers from your question are considering one of the rules on how to read properly when it comes to punctuation in the sentences. <u>When reading, readers must pay attention to those punctations and often those are comma, a period, question mark and exclamation point. </u>

They are used to make the sentence more understandable and to reach the point of the idea of the sentence.

  • The answers that are not correct are ''reading quickly without pausing at commas'' which is incorrect because it will confuse the readers. Where there is a semicolon there should not be a complete halt as it is when it comes to a period at the end of the sentence.

Mikayla placed the dough on her right fist and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef. What change should be made
marta [7]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

What change should be made in sentence 3? (Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef.)

A. Insert a comma after "fist".

B. Change "then" to "than".

C. Change "spins" to "spun".

D. Change "it" to "them".

Answer:

The change that should be made in sentence 3 is:

C. Change "spins" to "spun".

Explanation:

The sentence "Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef" is incorrect for only one reason - the shift in verb tenses. The sentence begins with a verb in the simple past and, all of a sudden, changes to the simple present. It is clear that this is a sequence of actions that took place in the past, one after the other, so the shift is inappropriate in this case. To correct it, we must change the verb in the present form (spins) to the past form (spun):

Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spun it into the air, trying to mimic the chef.

Victor is writing a persuasive essay about the need for political change in the United States. He describes the current state of
Goshia [24]

The best description of the rhetorical device being used by Victor is that of figurative language.

<h3>What is figurative language?</h3>

When figurative language is used, it means that a word or phrase that does not normally describe a subject, is used to describe that subject.

This allows us to define the subject based on the word or phrase given. In describing politics as a zoo, one can infer that politics in the nation is disorderly.
