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."

What is the term for words from different languages that look similar and mean the same thing?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Cognates are words from different languages that look similar and mean the same thing. These words are usually derived from and share the same etymological origin, which is an advantage if you're looking forward to learning a new language. For example, several words in other languages such as French and Spanish have similar appearances and meanings in English, with a few even having the same spelling.

Hi I need is a 4-5 sentence paragraph about "is smoking still a problem among teenagers. That's it, if you do end up doing this
STALIN [3.7K]
Yes, it is a major problem but some people tend to overlook it. Smoking can cause problems either now or in the future, but some kids might not care if this a real problem. It can cause a number of problem and severity of respiratory illnesses, decreased physical fitness and some effects on lung function. Smoking is not a way to cope with problems and should never be.
