Question

Identify the correctly punctuated sentence.
a. Michael ​Dorris's book The Broken Cord made readers more aware of the problem of fetal alcohol​ syndrome, one of his adopted sons was diagnosed with this condition.
b. Johnny Cash auditioned for a record​ producer, singing mainly gospel​ tunes, was told to come back with new material.
c. Agent Orange is believed to be the cause of some illnesses suffered by veterans was widely used in chemical warfare in Vietnam.
d. One day​ Nick's roommate brought home a​ ferret; he'd seen it at a pet store and​ couldn't resist it.

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer is B. It is the only sentence where the punctuation marks are correctly placed. For the first sentence, the apostrophe in Dorris should be placed in the last letter of the name and an s is not to be added since the name ends with an s. For option C, some commas should be inserted in the sentence to make sense of the sentence. And, for the last option, the semi colon is not to be used instead a period should be placed.
