OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg @1DEA the other one was right when you answered the last one thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol yahoo answers as a source...anyways, so you don't need commas when your appositive is necessary to identify the noun it belongs to. Since "The Old Man in the Sea" is a more specific and hence more precise identifier than "book". It's probably C

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

What do u think is the answer @joydbhfjhfd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it's not D, which is honestly my inclinations, but lol I am terrible at english
