Which sentence needs another comma?

English
1 answer:
ollegr [7]3 years ago

Answer:

3. Our teacher Miss Allen, is very good

Explanation:

Looking at these answer choices, there seems to be two different instances in which we need commas. First, whenever a proper name of someone is being identified. In these answer choices, the teacher is being identified as Miss Allen. When this is happening, her name should be between commas. Here's an example of what this looks like in another sentence:

"My neighbor, Jennifer, is very kind."

The name Jennifer in that example must be with commas since she is being identified with her proper name.

Second, any interruptions within sentences should have commas since they are disrupting the main idea of the sentence. In these answer choices, the term, " who is our teacher," is interrupting the main idea, therefor requiring commas. Here's an example of what that would look like:

"My cat, who's very grumpy, bit me earlier."

"Who's very grumpy," would be the interruption in that sentence!

Finally, we can apply this knowledge to our answer choices to find out which one is missing a comma. In the first two choices, our interruptions both have commas around them, so they are not missing any. The third choice has a comma after, "Miss Allen," but it also needs one before it. The fourth choice uses a proper comma with the proper name, so the only choice that is missing a comma is choice 3. That sentence, if correct, would read, "Our teacher, Miss Allen, is very good."

Which civilization in asia has the greatest contribution to humanity?​
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

So, given this, the comments of U.S. Republican Representative Steve King of Iowa regarding the civilizations of the world are a cause of great trepidation and sorrow. Referring to non-white people, King asked: “I’d ask you to go back through history and figure out, where are these contributions that have been made by these other categories of people that you’re talking about — where did any other subgroup of people contribute more to civilization?” He added his view that the greatest contributions to civilization came from “Western civilization itself…rooted in Western Europe, Eastern Europe and the Unites States of America and every place where the footprint of Christianity settled the world. That’s all of Western civilization.”

Explanation:

What’s discouraging about King’s statements are that they resemble an increasingly common viewpoint in the discourse among the right and nationalists in the Western world and among the rank and file of the Republican Party in the United States. It is a discourse that does not match up with the facts about the historical development of civilizations. According to Modern Western civilization, after all, is a relatively recent phenomenon that arose through the fusion of Roman and Christian ideas in Europe during the Medieval Era. Other civilizations preceded, influenced, and coexisted with the West.

Phew. This took a while! Hope it helps!
