This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
What change should be made in sentence 3? (Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef.)
A. Insert a comma after "fist".
B. Change "then" to "than".
C. Change "spins" to "spun".
D. Change "it" to "them".
Answer:
The change that should be made in sentence 3 is:
C. Change "spins" to "spun".
Explanation:
The sentence "Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spins it into the air, trying to mimic the chef" is incorrect for only one reason - the shift in verb tenses. The sentence begins with a verb in the simple past and, all of a sudden, changes to the simple present. It is clear that this is a sequence of actions that took place in the past, one after the other, so the shift is inappropriate in this case. To correct it, we must change the verb in the present form (spins) to the past form (spun):
Mikayla placed the dough on her right hand and then spun it into the air, trying to mimic the chef.
We see here that the question is incomplete as the fifth paragraph wasn't given here.
But one can deduce that the two ways in which the information in the fifth paragraph influences the passage as a whole are:
- It serves as a turning point in the history and fortunes of the Orphan Mine.
- It describes how the Orphan Mine became a prosperous uranium mine.
<h3>What is paragraph?</h3>
Paragraph refers to a section of a passage or text where a new line is commenced. It is in this section that a theme of idea is buttressed or explained.
Thus, the above options are correct because they are the two ways in which the information in the fifth paragraph influences the passage as a whole.

I took the liberty to correct your typing. The original question does not have the verb "is" after the word "brother". The way you typed it, none of the options would be correct. The proper question is this one:
<em>Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
</em>
<em>A) My brother a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. </em>
<em>B) My brother, a truck driver spends a great deal of time on the road. </em>
<em>C) My brother, a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. </em>
<em>D) My brother, a truck, driver spends a great deal of time on the road.</em>
<em />
The sentence that is punctuated correctly is option C) My brother, a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. The structure "a truck driver" is an appositive. That means its function in this sentence is to give further information or an explanation about something that was just mentioned - in this case, the word brother. The speaker is explaining that his/her brother spends a lot of time on the road because he is a truck driver. Appositives should come between commas. That's why option C is the right one.
Answer:
C. newspaper editor-in-chief
Explanation:
The narrator in Albany was formerly a newspaper editor-in-chief. She was involved in a political scandal which caused her to lose her job.
She was enticed, thus accepted the lavished life style she was offered thinking that it would be so rude of her to have rejected it. This later made her to lose her job as a well known newspaper editor-in-chief.
A comma is used as a short pause to create meaning to the words you are saying, where you put the comma depends on what word in the sentence you wish to highlight the most
in my opinion i would put the comma in one of two places
<span>The long winding road, was dark and ominous.
</span><span>The long winding road was dark, and ominous</span>
