What is the correct way to punctuate the bolded portion of this sentence? Maria shouted Great job, everyone!” shouted, Great shouted. “Great shouted “Great shouted, “Great

Answers

Answer:

The answer is indeed the last option shouted, "Great

Explanation:

The sentence we are punctuating here is using direct speech to let us know what a person, possibly a character, said. When we use direct speech, we use the character's own words. To make that clear, we must separate our words - the narrator's words - from the character's by employing a comma, immediately followed by quotation marks. Study the example below:

Lucas stated, "I will never allow this to happen to you again."

As we can see, right after the verb that indicates the action of saying something, we place the comma to separate the narrator's and the character's words. Then we use the quotation marks to enclose what the character said. Following that logic, the best way to punctuate the sentence  in the question is:

Maria shouted, "Great job, everyone!"

shouted, "Great     that would be the best one

What is one possible advantage of hearing the characters’ voices as opposed to silently reading the scene?

Answers

One possible advantage to hearing a character out loud in the voice of an actor or reader (or even one´s own voice) is that, if the histrionic and aesthetic execution and delivery of the reading is powerful and well-constructed, it could add depth to the character by revealing emotions and dimensions of the character that a silent and monotonous reading could risk passing over without emphasizing it and its importance.

If you hear their voices it can help you guess how they feel in the situation as well as guess the tone of the story.

In which sentence is the underlined phrase an adjective prepositional phrase? Robert Fulton’s invention of the steamboat gives him a prominent place in the history of transportation. Robert Fulton was born in 1765 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Robert Fulton sailed on the Seine River in a small paddle wheel boat. In 1807, the steamboat Clermont traveled from New York City to Albany in 32 hours.

Answers

Since you can't show underlining here, I will just discuss where in the sentences you can find an adjective prepositional phrase:
1) Robert Fulton’s invention of the steamboat gives him a prominent place in the history of transportation.
Here the prepositional phrases are: "of the seamboat" "in the history" and "of transportation"



2)Robert Fulton was born in 1765 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
no adjective prepositional phrase here!

3) Robert Fulton sailed on the Seine River in a small paddle wheel boat.
no adjective prepositional phrase here!

4) In 1807, the steamboat Clermont traveled from New York City to Albany in 32 hours. no adjective prepositional phrase here either!

The answer to your question would be that the underlined phrase that is an adjective prepositional phrase is the following one: Robert Fulton's invention of the steambot gives him a prominent place in the history of transportation.

Prepositional phrases can function in three ways: they can function as a noun, an adjective, or as an adverb. When the prepositional phrase functions as an adjective, it gives us additional information about a noun or pronoun in the sentence. It tells us which one, what kind, or how many.

If the object of the preposition is related to another noun or pronoun, then the prepositional phrase is functioning as an adjective. In this case, "the steambot" (object of the preposition) is related to the "invention" (another noun), it is the invention by Robert Fulton.
