Which sentence with an introductory phrase is punctuated correctly?
a. A popular, and experienced deputy, Jackson was the clear choice for sheriff.
b. A popular and experienced deputy, Jackson was the clear choice for sheriff.
c. A popular, and experienced deputy; Jackson was the clear choice for sheriff.
d. A popular and experienced deputy, Jackson was the clear choice, for sheriff.
Answer:
b. A popular and experienced deputy, Jackson was the clear choice for sheriff.
Explanation:
Introductory phrases are usually followed by a comma, especially when they are long (more than four words). This is so to separate the information of the phrase with the information of the main or independent clause. Option B, therefore, is the correct option because it consists o a phrase and an independent clause separated by a comma.
The other options, on the other hand, are incorrect because when two words (such as in option A and C) are separated by the conjunction “and,” a comma is not usually required, semicolons do not separate introductory phrases (option C) and the clause in option D “Jackson was the clear choice, for sheriff” should not be separated by any punctuation.

Read the excerpt below, then answer the question. One day in spring four men were riding on horseback along a country road. These men were lawyers, and they were going to the next town to attend court. There had been a rain, and the ground was very soft. Water was dripping from the trees, and the grass was wet. The four lawyers rode along, one behind another; for the pathway was narrow, and the mud on each side of it was deep. They rode slowly, and talked and laughed and were very jolly. As they were passing through a grove of small trees, they heard a great fluttering over their heads and a feeble chirping in the grass by the roadside. "Stith! stith! stith!" came from the leafy branches above them. "Cheep! cheep! cheep!" came from the wet grass. "What is the matter here?" asked the first lawyer, whose name was Speed. "Oh, it's only some old robins!" said the second lawyer, whose name was Hardin. "The storm has blown two of the little ones out of the nest. They are too young to fly, and the mother bird is making a great fuss about it.” "What a pity! They'll die down there in the grass," said the third lawyer, whose name I forget. "Oh, well! They're nothing but birds," said Mr. Hardin. "Why should we bother?" "Yes, why should we?" said Mr. Speed. Where does the story take place? What additional information is provided by the location? Your answer should be 3 to 4 sentences.
Answer:
Where does the story take place? They seem to be walking through the woods due to being under the trees where they hear the birds. It also seems to take place before there were cars due to the fact that they are lawyers and they are riding horses. It is also interesting to note that they were going into the next town - riding horses.....

HELP ME ASAP!!!! (IF YOU ANSWER IT VERY GOOD YOU WILL GET MARKED BRAIN) you will be writing a story about a time you got a scar or broke a bone. (I will not be fact-checking, so feel free to make it up if needed). Your story must include a plot (events), sensory details, figurative language, and dialogue (characters speaking). Direction for the graph: Make an outline for your story by filling out the boxes. First, divide your story into 5 events. Then, for each event, list some sensory details and dialogue. In other words, what sensory details did you notice during each part of the story AND what were people saying during each part of the story.
Answer:
Imagine like you're there, in that person's point of view. Be descriptive. So like you could have fallen, got a scratch, and it scarred, or you could have been stupid like my brother and jumped off a roof and only broke your arm trying to fly when you were younger, describe how the pain felt. Describe what the injury would look like. Was it light? Was it dark? Was it bad? Then Describe on how long it took to heal. like if it was a broken arm, I'd say 4-6 weeks, depending on the break. and if it is a broken arm, did it require surgery? You have to be very detailed in your writing. Good luck there, m'dude.

In paragraph 2, what does the phrase “I’ve studied whiteness the way I would a foreign language” suggest about Conley?
Answer: Conley is probably very thorough, and feels a responsibility to know what is being discussed.
Explanation: Thats a metaphoric phrase. When you study a foreign language, you would pay attention to every detail, very thorough, and learn whats being taught. So they are saying they studied whitness the same way.
Conley is most likely quite thorough and feels it is his duty to be aware of the topics being discussed.
What was Conley opnion ?That phrase is metaphorical, as explained. You would pay close attention to every detail, be extremely thorough, and learn everything being taught when studying a foreign language. They claim to have studied Whitness in the same manner.
This line from Conley's memoir "Honkey" demonstrates how white folks do not care about the implications of the privileges they receive as "whites."
In this memoir, Dalton Conley discusses how his life was influenced by race and class and how there are injustices in American culture. He demonstrates the benefits of being white and the influence of schooling.
This tale illustrates how culture affects learning in a classroom.. He grew up in an African American community as a white guy with bohemian parents. Because he was surrounded by non-white people, Dalton came to understand what it really meant to be "white" via his experiences.

Read the excerpt from "Woman's Rights to the Suffrage." It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our [descendants], but to the whole people – women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government – the ballot. Which fact supports Anthony's opinion that all adults should have the right to vote we, the whole people, who formed the Union. they are denied the use of the only means of securing them . . .
