Which sentences are punctuated correctly?

English

ycow [4]4 years ago

The sentences that are correctly punctuated are Sentences B, C, and D.

Sentence A is not correctly punctuated as it is a run-on sentence.  Contrary to what the name “run-on sentence” implies, a run-on sentence is not a sentence that runs on with lots of words.  It, for instance, is entirely possible for a grammatically correct sentence to have, even, over a hundred words as long as it is properly punctuated.  In fact, a run-on sentence is a sentence this simply missing punctuation.  For a sentence to be considered a run-on sentence the appropriate punctuation will be missing between two complete thoughts.  That said, Sentence A has two complete thoughts, and they are as follows:

<em>Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance </em>

<em> others workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners </em>

There are three ways to correct a run-on sentence.  

1) You could use a period between the two complete thoughts:

<em>Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance</em><em>.  </em><em>Other workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners. </em>

2) You could use a semicolon between the two complete thoughts:

<em>Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance</em><em>; </em><em>other workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners. </em>

3) You could use a comma/conjunction between the two complete thoughts:

<em>Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance</em><em>, and </em><em>other workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners. </em>

2. Volunteer to help get a transgender-supportive candidate elected.
3. Ask your local film festival to include films inclusive of transgender issues.
4. Work to pass a non-discrimination policy in your workplace. Slightly less than one-third of Americans live in a jurisdiction with laws that ban employment discrimination based on gender identity and expression.
5. Submit an op-ed to your local paper about the transgender community. This is an effective way to express opinions and distribute information on transgender issues from a variety of voices.
6. Plan or attend a Day of Remembrance Event every November 20. This is a yearly opportunity to remember those lost to hate-motivated violence directed towards the transgender community, and also a time to encourage people to take action to make the world safer.

How does Langston Hughes incorporate meter into his poetry?
Zielflug [23.3K]

He incorporates it to reflect a blues musical timing.

A signature of Hughes's poetic style is his meter. It reflects the rhythms of Harlem's jazz and blues during his time period, as well as black folk rhythms. Hughes's poetry is reflective of the African American culture in, not only its content, but also its rhythms.

The other two options are simply incorrect. He did not writing jingles for depression medication has nothing to do with how he incorporates meter. While the first does indicate the blues sound, it's not completely correct.
