Which is the correct way to punctuate the following sentence?

1 answer:

7 0

A is a run-on sentence, therefore it is incorrect.
B (leave as is) in incorrect because the original sentence combines independent and dependent clauses with a semicolon; semicolons are used to combine independent clauses.
C is incorrect for the same reason B is incorrect (the first clause in dependent).
D is the correct answer, as it properly uses commas to combine the clauses.

Hope this helps.

Is the verb transitive or intransitive? the distant rainbow was spectacular?

kiruha [24]

A transitive verb demands an object, such as in the following case: She is reading a book. The verb to read demands the direct object a book which is why it is transitive.
On the other hand, intransitive verbs do not need an object to complete them, such as in the case: She is sleeping.
In the sentence above, the verb was is a past tense of the verb to be, and it is used as a linking verb in the sentence, connecting the first part with the adjective beautiful. Since there is no object in the sentence, the correct answer is intransitive.

This is a horrible choice of answers, and in my honest opinion the answer is none of these. But the only logical answer would be answer (B).
