Punctuation and Capitalization Writing Practice

English
1 answer:
Lubov Fominskaja [6]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

I may have missed a few but I hope this helps! Some of the punctuation may be wrong as I thought the dashes were quite confusing.

Explanation:

555 Centralia Boulevard

Abbotsville, South Carolina

June 7, 2015

Dear Aunt Mary,

This letter is to thank you for my trip to New York City.—I loved every moment of the trip you so thoughtfully gave me as my graduation present.—Would you like to hear about some of my favorite moments?—

Our plane landed at Kennedy international airport on Friday afternoon and we took a cab to our hotel in times square.—Our concierge helped us get tickets to these wonderful Broadway plays, – The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime,-The King and I,- and on The Town.—Mom and I liked them all

.

( I believe the listed plays should be capitalized.)

On Saturday we took a ferry ride to liberty island and toured the Statue of Liberty.—It was so much bigger than I had ever imagined.—On the ferry we met some other people from South Carolina who were also on graduation trips.—One guy recognized my Clemson tee shirt and asked about it.—He said, "Do you go there?"—I said, "I will start in the fall."—Then he said, "I go there."—After that we exchanged emails and cell phone numbers.—Now I already have a friend on that campus

.

In between the excursion to Liberty Island and the Broadway shows mom and I got some time for shopping at Bloomingdales and Barneys.—I'll look fabulous in my new clothes.—I will send you some photos to show what we bought.—I even picked up some neat things for Charley at Fao Schwarz but I think ill make him wait until his birthday

.

When Monday morning came, Mom and I tried to think of some excuse to stay longer but we headed out to the airport like the responsible people we are.—Guess who was waiting for the flight to South Carolina in the very same gate.—If you guessed the guy I met at the Statue of Liberty, you're right.—He changed his seat assignment and we sat together the whole way home

.

Aunt Mary, the trip was the best graduation present ever and I love you very much.—Next time the trip will be my present to you, just as soon as I graduate and get a very good job.

Love from your favorite niece,

Alexis

The apostrophe is a widely misused punctuation mark. In proper usage, the apostrophe indicates either a possessive case or where
Thepotemich [5.8K]

The sentence that contains a mistake with the use of apostrophe is "The restaurants reputation and success depending on keeping a high healthy rating."

In this case, there are two possible answers to indicate a possessive case:

1) an apostrophe should be placed after the word "restaurant's" if it refers to one restaurant only

"The restaurant's reputation and success depending (depend) on keeping a high healthy rating."

2) an apostrophe should be placed after the word "restaurants' " if it refers to restaurants in general

"The restaurants' reputation and success depending (depend) on keeping a high healthy rating."

The rest of the sentences does not violate the rules of apostrophe usage.
