Answer:
A. The ball slowly rolled around the rim and finally, dropped through the hoop.
Explanation:
Punctuation is the use of the grammatical signs to indicate correct sentence construction. These marks make the sentence right, indicating how the sentence is to be read or taken. The signs may be of the comma, full-stop, question mark, or an exclamation mark, among others.
From the given options, the nest sentence that punctuates it correctly for a pause is the first option. The sentence reads <em>"The ball slowly rolled around the rim and finally, dropped through the hoop."</em>, putting the pause (comma) after finally, where the change in the sentence is made.
The other options' use of the pause in the sentence, (sentence B- comma after rolled and rim), (sentence C uses ..... after rolled) while (sentence D used it after rim) are all wrong. "The ball rolled around the rim" is a free flow sentence with no need for a pause, while there is also no need for a pause after "rim".
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
The word partition refers to the act of dividing any space into two parts or more.
In the above sentences, the sentence which uses the word partition correctly is 2. Becky stood behind the partition that separated the audience from the people backstage and waited for her cue to enter.
In the above sentence, the words partition separates the two spaces, space of audience with that of space of people backstage.
Other sentences do not confine with the proper use of word partition because it relates the division of object and not spaces. Hence, sentence two is correct.
Its C I just feel like it makes the most sense
