"The Gift of the Magi" tells the story of a young couple Jim and Della. Christmas is coming, and each wants to buy the other a present. The problem is that they really cannot afford to spend a lot of money on presents. Jim treasures his gold pocket watch, which has been given to him by his father. Della treasures her long, beautiful hair.
As the story progresses, the two struggle to think of ways to buy a Christmas present for each other. Finally, on Christmas Eve, Della realizes she has next to no money left for her husband's Christmas present. What will she do???
At this point, she goes into town to search for something to buy with the little money she has. She knows that her husband's most prized possession is his pocket watch. She thinks that maybe she could buy him a chain for it, but they are all too expensive.
That's when Della realizes she has a way to EARN the money -- her hair. She runs out and has it cut short. She is able to sell the hair for enough money to buy the chain for her husband's watch.
Her husband comes home with a present for Della. When he sees her, however, he is shocked. She tells him she cut her hair for his present. When Jim hands her his present, we can see why he was so shocked. He had bought her a pair of really expensive hair combs. How could he afford such a gift? He had sold his most prized possession -- his watch -- just to buy his wife a present.
Of course, now that Della has short hair, she cannot use the combs. And, now that Jim has sold his watch, he has no use for the chain. That aside, their love for one another is the greatest gift of all.
And so, Della's problem was how to buy a gift for her beloved husband. She solves this problem by selling her most prized possession, her hair.
6. Fourth, the invitations should be sent.
The structure of the paragraph is organized as a numbered list that the host must do in order to have a great party. Each sentence that is part of the list begins with an ordinal number (first, second, third). It would make sense to have the next sentence begin with the word fourth. Also, the only thing left out to planning the party is inviting the guests.
12. C. I thought about what he'd said soon I realized he was right.
There are two independent clauses in this sentence: "I though about what he'd said" and "soon I realized he was right." These two indpendent clauses must be separated with a period or joined together with a semicolon or a comma and a conjunction.
14. Prewriting
John is doing some brainstorming of his topic ideas. Brainstorming is in the prewriting stage because he is still trying to figure out exactly what he wants his topic to be. The planning step would involve creating an outline.
15. The game will be called if the storm continues, the weather is dangerous.
This sentence is a runon because it has two independent clauses "The game will be called" and "the weather is dangerous". There is a dependent clause as well: "if the storm continues". The two independent clauses are only separated with a comma. This is not enough. There should be a conjunction as well as a comma or a semicolon.
