Question 8 • DBN LA 6-CR

Which sentence is written correctly?

Answer
A
My garden has green peppers, carrots, and three different kinds of tomatoes.
B
My garden has—green peppers, carrots, and three different kinds of tomatoes.
C
My garden has green peppers carrots and three different kinds of tomatoes.
D
My garden has green peppers, carrots (and three different kinds of tomatoes).

Explanation

A is correct because it uses commas to separate the three items in a series: green peppers, carrots, and three different kinds of tomatoes. B uses a dash where no interruption or emphasis is needed, and C leaves out the comma between “peppers” and “carrots.” The parentheses in D incorrectly set off the final item.
