Answer:
When reading, <em>the reader should address the commas by pausing just long enough to take a breath</em>. <u>The correct answer is b (please, pay attention because options are not in order, b is the third option given).</u>
Explanation:
When reading, you have to address the different punctuation marks <u>without mentioning them</u>, of course. In order to do this, we take pauses or read in a certain tone. In the case of the<em> comma</em>, we are suggested to take a <u>short pause</u>, just a second will be enough, a moment long enough to take a breath. In cases such as a <em>period</em> or the start of a new paragraph, the pauses are going to be longer. The <em>comma</em> and the <em>semicolon</em> need the shortest pauses.
