Question 12 • FL-1001370-English 3 B

Which is the best use of punctuation?

Answer

A

Joel and Lisette went (to the museum) to see an exhibit on ancient Egyptian artifacts.

B

Sandy, a wayward puppy, was taken in and adopted by a loving family.

C

Our National Parks are (beautiful places) to appreciate the many landmarks in our country.

D

Please refrain from talking—during the movie as to not disturb the patrons.

Explanation

In choice B, the commas correctly set off “a wayward puppy,” which adds extra information identifying Sandy. The parentheses in A and C are unnecessary and interrupt the sentences, while the dash in D awkwardly breaks up the request and its explanation.
