f HS. English 3A [M] Flex) /6:Mechanics and Punctuation 4. Which sentence is punctuated correctly? The writer said, 'I expect to
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The writer said, "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."

Explanation:

1. <u>The writer said, 'I expect to be finished with this novel in a month.'</u>

This sentence is incorrect because it is using single quotation marks. Instead of single quotation marks, there should be double quotation marks since this is direct dialogue. If you were from England, this would be correct as they use single quotation marks to indicate dialogue.

2. <u>The writer said I expect to be finished with this novel in a month.</u>

This sentence is incorrect because it has no quotation marks to signify a quote, and there isn't a comma after the word "said" before the dialogue.

3. <u>The writer said, "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."</u>

This sentence is correct because it is correctly punctuated. The comma after the word "said" is in its correct spot, the double quotation marks are surrounding the dialogue, and the period is within the quotation marks.

4. <u>The writer said "I expect to be finished with this novel in a month."​</u>

This sentence is incorrect because there is no comma located after the word "said." A rule in English is to put a comma before introducing dialogue or material.

Read the excerpts from "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry" and "Speaking Arabic.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Both of the authors use non-English words in their writing. According to the content of the paragraphs, these words are associated with Mexican and German heritage. Some examples of these words that we can see in the two passages are: pachuco, oom-pah, and gordita.

Figurative language is also present in the passages. For example, we see personification used when the trees are described as 'American' and they also dangle their branches as if they were arms.

Which idea is expressed in this excerpt from "Anecdote of the Jar" by Wallace Stevens?
marshall27 [118]
Taking the whole poem into account, I think the correct answer must be C.

The jar is a small, common, impersonal object, but in Stevens' view, it affects the nature, depriving it of its inherent wilderness. Although it is one of a thousand, it still has the power and dominion over nature. Its meaningless existence leaves a negative trail in this world. If the jar was regarded as faceless a person living in a highly commercialized, industrialized world, and the nature as freedom, the parallel would be all the more effective.
