Answer:

The sentence that is punctuated correctly is the following one: Blue streak was determined to win; however, another worse was hot on his tail.

Explanation:

In the sentence above, there is a conjunctive adverb: however. When you have a conjunctive adverb linking two independent clauses, you should use a semicolon. As you can see, the conjunctive adverb in the sentence above is connecting the two independent clauses in the sentence. Moreover, there is comma after <em>however</em> because it is in initial position in the sentence. For all these reasons, the sentence is punctuated correctly.

boyakko [2]

b. including facts and details about the topic.

The excerpt does not reveal why the fans are screaming racial insults or why the fans begin to feel the heat. This eliminates option A as a possibility. Option C is also wrong because the excerpt does not speak to the reader and convince the reader to believe one way or another on an issue. Option D is also wrong because the author does not include his or her own opinion about the topic. Option C is correct because in this excerpt the author is simply reporting the events and the emotions of the football players.

Which sentence uses the italicized vocabulary word correctly?
DochEvi [55]
I believe the correct answer is - <span>a) The teen pop star was infamous for wild parties and driving under the influence of alcohol. 
Infamous means to be well known for something bad: in A, the celebrity is famous because of his/her wild lifestyle. B is incorrect because you can put off a fire by doing that, and not kindle it. C is incorrect because couplets consist of two lines, not four (that would be a quatrain). D is incorrect because deceitful would mean that she cheated somebody, when in fact, she felt delightful about her score.</span>

<span>He is indifferent.

Because D doesn't really dislike dirt, he doesn't feel that it's important to wash it off. This is showing how he is indifferent to the customs of his culture. Most people would wash themselves, but he doesn't really see why that's so important so he doesn't. </span>
