Answer:

Remove the comma.

Explanation:

One of the functions of a comma in a sentence is to indicate a pause, before continuation.

From the sentence, "Nemo couldn't decide if he wanted the root beer float, or the banana cream pie." we can see that the sentence is one that doesn't need a pause after the word "float" to continue from "or the banana".

A comma would have been necessary in this sentence if it contained more than two lists.

For example,

Nemo couldn't decide if he wanted the root beer float, the apple or the banana cream pie.

Now that we have more than two lists in the sentence, a comma is necessary to separate the lists.

qwelly [4]
I guess this also depends on what the "Advanced Reading Skills" lessons talks about, but don't think of it as "really hard"! Work on one word, one phrase, one sentence, and you'll start making progress. =) 

In general, when translating, the first thing you'll have to do is to understand the paragraph, but you're right, this isn't that easy a paragraph to translate. You could use an English dictionary, or a bilingual dictionary (http://www.nciku.com<span>is good for English-Chinese) to help you. While you're doing this, try to pick out important words and translate them first, and see if you could understand what each sentence means. </span>

<span>Sometimes, words may have multiple meanings or be used as metaphors - for example, "amputated" means "having been cut off", but in your 2nd sentence, it means that the poet should not be condemned and criticised to the point where he is treated as having no value. </span>

<span>Finally, after you've translated the text, don't forget to read it to check if it makes sense in the language you're using - and if it makes for smooth reading!</span>

Plural possessive noun for child
zalisa [80]
The plural possessive noun of the word "Child", would be "Children's", instead of the plural version of that word "Children", since the word "Children" is an irregular plural, therefore the plural possessive noun of the word "Child", is "Children's".
