Answer 1

Correctly punctuate the following text. Add three colons and two semicolons.

Thought

for

the

Day;

There's

one

thing

that

grinds

my

gears

more

than

anything

else;

rudeness.

Whenever

I

see

someone

dropping

a

sweet

wrapper

on

the

floor,

I

want

to

perform

a citizen's

arrest

for

littering

whenever

a

driver

cuts

me

up,

I

want

an

officer

on

hand

to

haul

them

off

in

cuffs;

and

whenever

I

receive

an

email

without

a

proper

greeting

or

sign

off,

I

want

to

be

able

to

zap

the

sender

with

so

much

spam

that

their

inbox

will

melt!

You

might

think

me

harsh,

but

to

misquote

Shakespeare

'To

be

cruel

is

to

be

kind.'

Indeed,

the

punishment

must

fit

the

crime

that's

the

only

way

we'll

be

able

to

change

these

people's

habits.

So

whenever

you're

about

to

scoff

your

snacks,

pull

out

into

traffic

or

click

send,

pause

for

a

moment

and

remember

the

age-old

maxim

manners

maketh

man.

Answer 2

Thought for the day; there's one thing that grinds my gears more than anything else: rudeness. Whenever I see someone dropping a sweet wrapper on the floor, I want to perform a citizen's arrest for littering; whenever a driver cuts me up, I want an officer on hand to haul them off in cuffs; and whenever I receive an email without a proper greeting or sign off, I want to be able to zap the sender with so much spam that their inbox will melt! You might think me harsh, but to misquote Shakespeare: 'to be cruel is to be kind.' Indeed, the punishment must fit the crime; that's the only way we'll be able to change these people's habits. So whenever you're about to scoff your snacks, pull out into traffic or click send; pause for a moment and remember the age old maxim: manners maketh man.
