The correct answer is A. He told us to meet him at 6 o'clock, and he promised to be on time.

Explanation:

According to grammar, if a sentence contains two or more independent clauses these need to be separated either using a semicolon or a punctuation mark such as comma followed by a conjunction, in the cases this is omitted and the clauses are placed together a run-on sentence occurs which is a type of grammatical error.

In the sentence "He told us to meet him at 6 o'clock and he promised to be on time" the writer has used only one conjunction (and) to try to separate the clause, but this should be preceded by a comma or the conjunction should be omitted and instead a semicolon should be used. According to this, the correct revision for this is "He told us to meet him at 6 o'clock, and he promised to be on time" because this includes the comma before the conjunction that is essential to separate both clauses correctly.

Read the excerpt from We've Got a Job by Cynthia Levinson.
Luda [366]

Answer:

The general statement about the Movement that is most likely true is:

D) All of the participants in the march were deeply inspired by the Movement.

Explanation:

We are basing our answer on the excerpt provided in the question. The excerpt does not give us enough information to know if everyone had their parents permission, or if they all belonged to that same church, much less if they were all crying tears of joy. It does, however, induce us to believe all the participants were deeply inspired by the movement. According to the narrator, they were not only very organized, but they knew what was going to happen. They knew they would be arrested, but they felt so inspired with courage that they kept on coming, defying the authorities. As the narrator says, "The ... Movement was moving  forward. It was just overwhelming."
