The Poet Laureate Consultant, and the Librarian of Congress eagerly prepare for the new Walt Whitman exhibit.How is the comma used incorrectly in the sentence above?

The comma attempts to separate a compound subject.
The comma attempts to separate a compound predicate.
The comma attempts to set apart an essential element.
The comma attempts to join two independent clauses.

Answers

The comma is used incorrectly in this sentence because it attempts to separate a compound subject.

A compound subject occurs in a sentence when a sentence has two or more subjects. In this case, the compound subject is The Poet Laucreate Consultant and the Librarian of Congress.

To avoid confusion, a predicate is the part that modifies the subject in some way. In this case the predicate is prepared. It is not a compound predicate, nor does the comma separate it from anything.

The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "The comma attempts to separate a compound predicate." The Poet Laureate Consultant, and the Librarian of Congress eagerly prepare for the new Walt Whitman exhibit.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

In fact, even in many societies where "true love" is not considered a form of insanity, arranged marriages are still the norm. For example, in many cultures it's believed that marriage is basically an economic arrangement. Thus, a farmer needs a wife both to bear children and to share the farm work while raising new "hands" as additional farm labor. In other societies, marriage is mainly about cementing connections between families. Indeed, most marriages between members of European royal or aristocratic lineages were primarily aimed at creating trust, loyalty, and mutual obligations between privileged and powerful families.5.

Which words in the sentence are the adverb clause? Wait with your friend near the front of the store while I finish grocery shopping.
a. while I finish grocery shopping
b. near the front of the store
c. Wait with your friend

Answers

The correct answer is A. While I finish grocery shopping is a temporal clause, that is, a clause of time, or the adverbial clause of time. B cannot be the correct answer because this is not a clause - it doesn't have a verb so it cannot be a clause, it is just an adverbial phrase. C is also not the correct answer since it is not an adverbial clause, it is just a regular sentence in the imperative form.
