Help Me Please.

Which sentence is punctuated correctly? A. "It appears, Trevor said, that we have arrived too late." B. Turn at the next light, "my father told the cab driver." C. "I thought I left my glasses on the table," said my grandfather, "but I can't seem to find them." D. I have a dream, said Martin Luther King, Jr.

OpenStudy (vjt):

Do you have a guess?

OpenStudy (liz_beauty45):

umm i know it's not A but could it be D ?

OpenStudy (vjt):

I don't think that it is D. I don't think that it is D because it should be "I have a dream", said Martin Luther King, Jr.

OpenStudy (liz_beauty45):

ok.

OpenStudy (vjt):

When someone is saying something there should be quotations, so do you have another guess? I can't just give you the correct answer.

OpenStudy (liz_beauty45):

how about C and is A wrong too?

OpenStudy (liz_beauty45):

and ik you can't give direct answers

OpenStudy (vjt):

A is wrong because of unnecessary commas. So now you know it's not A or D.

OpenStudy (liz_beauty45):

hmm okay well so i have C and B now i think it's..C

OpenStudy (vjt):

B is organized and worded all wrong, so that leaves C, which is correct. Good Job!

OpenStudy (liz_beauty45):

Thanks and sorry i left.Theres your medal.
