Question 45 • Language Arts 12

Which sentence should be revised to include commas to set off a nonrestrictive element?

Answer
A
The car in my driveway belongs to my oldest sister.
B
The TV show which we watch together airs on Friday nights.
C
The game that my mom gave me is really fun to play.
D
The tree in front of my house has been there for a century.

Explanation

In B, “which we watch together” can be treated as extra information about the TV show, rather than information needed to identify it. Set that nonrestrictive clause off with commas: “The TV show, which we watch together, airs on Friday nights.” The clauses in C use “that” to identify which game, so they are restrictive and do not take commas.
