This question refers to the text "Sally Ride — The Woman Who Broke the Space Ceiling," and after due analysis we can perform the following change in punctuation in sentence 17:

B. Insert a comma after atmosphere.

<h3>Changing sentence 17</h3>

In the article we are analyzing here, sentence 17 has a punctuation issue. It says, "When the shuttle broke free of Earth’s <u>atmosphere</u> Ride broke through the country’s highest glass ceiling by becoming the first American woman to fly in space." However, a change must be performed.

The sentence begins with a subordinate clause. For that reason, a comma must be placed to separate the subordinate clause from the main one. Since the clause ends with the word "atmosphere," we should place a comma right after it.

That means the correct sentence would be: "When the shuttle broke free of Earth’s <u>atmosphere</u>, Ride broke through the country’s highest glass ceiling by becoming the first American woman to fly in space."

A) My childhood had always been filled with wonderful friends that I could count on. Although was it only later did I realize that friendships never last. Whilst everyone was growing up, and facing that they wouldn’t have the same friends forever, I had to be faced with the cold truth to realize that friends are never going to be by your side when you grow up. Yes there are some friends that are with you forever, although those are rare.

During my time in elementary I had realized that friendships are easily developed there. It is simple to ask, “would you like to play with me?” or, “would you like to be friends?” Whilst in the future it is harder.

In elementary I had developed a very strong bond with a friend and soon after when we had to attend middle school did I notice that we weren’t going to stay close much longer.

Later we parted ways and only talked less and less on the phone. When we started to attend after school activities, I noticed our bond was breaking. When trying to contact (friend name) I had not been able to reach (him/her)....

Now I am in (high school/ middle school/ college) and I have many other friends. I have realized that I don’t need just one friend, because having many is so much better.

I have no idea where my old friend is now, or how (he/she) is doing but I wish her the best.
