Answer:

D. Even those who struggle in their lives outside of school have a  responsibility to make an effort with their education.

Explanation:

In the given passage, President Obama reiterates the importance of education irrespective of one's personal life. This Back to School speech stresses the need for kids to focus on their academic life no matter what circumstances they face in life.

By stating that <em>"none [of the circumstances of your life] is an excuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude in school"</em>, the President advised the students/listeners that it is important to try to make school work. Thus, the main idea of the excerpt is that everyone has the responsibility to make an effort with their education.

PLEASE HELP ASAP TIME LIMITWhich sentence is correctly punctuated?
sattari [20]

Answer:

The sentence that is correctly punctuated is the following one: "Let's get going," Ginnie shouted, "it's getting dark!"

Explanation:

The sentence above is a direct quotation. Quotation marks are for when you want to include someone else's words in your own writing. What is more, direct quotations contain a quote in which you report the exact words used.

In this case, the quote has been split. When you split a quote to introduce a parenthetical, you shouldn't  capitalize the second part of the quote example: (it's getting dark!"). Also, the exclamation mark goes inside the quote because it applies to the quoted material, not to the whole sentence. For these reasons, the sentence chosen is the one that is  correctly punctuated.
