Which shows the correct use of commas.

English
1 answer:
ratelena [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D: Hearing the song "Amazing Grace" always makes me think of both funerals and the slave-ship captain who wrote its words.

Explanation:

 The way the sentence of option D was written is correct because it didn´t commas. The gerund phrase <em>Hearing the song "Amazing Grace"</em> is the subject of the verb <em>makes </em>, and there shouldn't be a comma separating the subject from its predicate, as the one used in the example of the option A.  In B and C, the meaning is confusing.
