The third sentence
If this answer helped, please consider giving brainliest
I took the liberty to correct your typing. The original question does not have the verb "is" after the word "brother". The way you typed it, none of the options would be correct. The proper question is this one:
<em>Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
</em>
<em>A) My brother a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. </em>
<em>B) My brother, a truck driver spends a great deal of time on the road. </em>
<em>C) My brother, a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. </em>
<em>D) My brother, a truck, driver spends a great deal of time on the road.</em>
<em />
The sentence that is punctuated correctly is option C) My brother, a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. The structure "a truck driver" is an appositive. That means its function in this sentence is to give further information or an explanation about something that was just mentioned - in this case, the word brother. The speaker is explaining that his/her brother spends a lot of time on the road because he is a truck driver. Appositives should come between commas. That's why option C is the right one.
The correct answer for Odyssey is C) He felt a sense of threat and loss that many Africans faced when the empire invaded and disrupted their lives.
Answer:
The excerpt claims that Johnson's work is significant because he:
B. searched literature and found more words.
Explanation:
<u>According to the excerpt, dictionaries were quite limited. To write one that was as complete as possible, Johnson had a lot of work. First, he began by reading books. By searching literature, he was able to add more words to the ones dictionaries had already provided him with. Then, he moved on to the difficult but certainly rewarding task of gleaning words from "living speech," which can be quite a chaotic job.</u> He did not change the format of dictionaries, he did not apply rules to make language less chaotic, nor did he select only the most difficult words to define. Therefore, the correct option is letter B.
