Select the correctly punctuated item?

Svetlanka [38]3 years ago

The answer is D. after "items," you want to insert a colon, then go on to list your items. colons set off a list. semicolons, as in choice A, are used to connect two independent clauses--that is, two complete thoughts--and join them into a single sentence if their subject matter is related. semicolons aren't used to set off a list in this way because "milk, bread, and eggs" is not a complete thought. choice B is incorrect because list items do not need to be contained in parentheses. choice C is incorrect because it's unclear; "items" is followed by a comma, but you need to use commas for your list items as well. a reader could mistake "items" as a part of the list, when the list only consists of foods.

What's wrong with this is the clowns was ready to go on the field trip to the new Zoo
gogolik [260]

The sentence is using the word "was" instead of the word "were". Using "were" is appropriate for talking about the past tense for plural things. Simply change the words. Hope this helped :))

Contrast Jack London's "War" and Ambrose Bierce's "Horseman in the Sky."
Digiron [165]
Either add the passage with the question so we know what you are referring to or do not post questions like these. Not everybody has read what you have. This question is completely useless and unanswerable without the story to go off of.
