Question 12 • English III

Which sentence is written correctly?

Answer
A
The discovery of gold led to population growth, in the West, during the late 1800s.
B
Restaurants must adhere to, health department guidelines, in order to obtain a permit.
C
Summer produce, such as heirloom tomatoes, can be used to create delicious salads.
D
The hotel in the business district, has many accommodations, for its corporate visitors.

Explanation

Choice C is correctly punctuated: “such as heirloom tomatoes” is an example phrase set off with commas, and no comma separates the subject from its verb. In A, the commas incorrectly interrupt “population growth in the West.” B incorrectly places a comma between “adhere to” and its object, “health department guidelines.” D separates the subject from the verb with a comma and adds an unnecessary comma before “for its corporate visitors.”
