Writing Coherent Sentences

Question 55 • Twilight Session 1 (Fall 26): Literature and Composition I_CThompson

Which sentences combine the ideas correctly? Check all that apply.The members of the team worked well together. The team members won first place in the contest.

Answer
A
The team’s members worked well together, and they won first place in the contest.
B
Because the team’s members worked well together, they won first place in the contest.
C
Being team members, the team worked well by winning first place in the contest.
D
The team’s members won first place in the contest because they worked well together.
E
The team’s members won first place in the contest; they worked well together.

Explanation

A correctly joins the two ideas with “and.” B and D also combine them with “because,” showing a reasonable cause-and-effect relationship: the team members worked well together and won first place. E correctly joins the ideas with a semicolon. C is incorrect because it awkwardly suggests the team won first place by “working well,” rather than clearly stating that its members worked well together.
