English
1 answer:
Andru [333]3 years ago

Answer: The sentences that are<u> correctly punctuated:</u>

  • No, we will not be able to go.
  • After I finish my homework, I will watch the high school football game.
  • Reggie likes to play football, of course.
  • John, the captain of our football team, dislocated his shoulder.

Explanation:

The sentences that are<u> incorrectly punctuated:</u>

  • <em><u>Cold and wet we rushed to warm ourselves around the fire.</u></em>

This sentence is not correctly punctuated, as there needs to be a coma after the opening of the sentence (adjectival phrase). When we have an opening adjective at the beginning of the sentence, we must always put a coma after it. The correct punctuation of the sentence would be: <em>Cold and wet</em><em>, </em><em>we rushed to warm ourselves around the fire.</em>

  • <u><em>Mark likes to play tennis and I like to play soccer.</em></u>

When we join two independent clauses by using a conjunction 'and', we must always place a comma before the conjunction. The correct punctuation is, therefore: <em>Mark likes to play tennis</em><em>,</em><em> and I like to play soccer.</em>

  • <u><em>When we board the bus Frank looks for a seat by a window.</em></u>

When a dependent clause is found at the beginning of the sentence and is followed by an independent clause, we must always put a comma after the dependent clause. The correct punctuation of the sentence is: <em>When we board the bus</em><em>,</em><em> Frank looks for a seat by a window.</em>

<u><em /></u>
