Answer:

The answer that is correctly punctuated is:

"If you take good care of your car," said Grandpa Leo, "it will take good care of you."

Explanation:

When we use direct speech we must pay attention to the placement of commas. They are supposed to separate the writer's or narrator's words from the character's words.

<u>If the narrator's words come before the quote, the comma should placed before the quotation mark that starts the quote. If the narrator's words come after the quote, the comma should be place right before the quotation mark that ends the quote.</u> Both things happen in the passage we are analyzing here. Therefore, we will have one comma before the second quotation mark, and another one before the third quotation mark.

"If you take good care of your car," said Grandpa Leo, "it will take good care of you."

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Even though Tina told her to skip it, Lexie had a nagging feeling in her gut that if she missed her brother's spelling bee, he would be extremely disappointed in her as well as her parents. After a half an hour of going through the list of pros and cons she had written, she called Tina and told her that although she truly did want to go to the show with them, she thought that her family should always come before friends. Tina completely understood and when Jess heard the news, she was disappointed but came to terms with Lexie's decision. As soon as Lexie arrived at the spelling bee competition, her brother's face lit up with pure happiness and joy when he noticed that Lexie was there with their parents. <em>This was the right decision.</em> Lexie thought while she cheered on her brother. At the end of the championship, her brother won and they all went out to celebrate.
