1.The sentence is correct. True or False? She wanted to go home; but she had to work (true) 2.The sentence is correct. True or False? Tom loves baseball; he loves football also.(false) 3.The sentence is correct. True or False? Italy is her favorite country, in fact; she hopes to go there next summer. (false) 4.The sentence is correct. True or False? The storm went on a long time; however, there was no tornadoes in the area. (true) 5. The sentence is correct. True or False? I believe there are 3 things to achieving good grade; paying attention in class, doing your homework, and listening to the teacher. (true)
Okay, the first one seems to actually be false. A comma would be a more appropriate puncuation mark here. The second one I would say is true. If a comma was placed, then they would have to add another word such as "but" to make ", but he loves football also."
3 true
The third is false, as the puncutation marks are in the wrong places. The comma should be where the semicolon is. "Italy is her favorite country; in fact, she hopes to go there next summer."
That looks much better, no?
yes makes more sense
The 4th one is indeed true.
And the 5th one, instead of a semicolon, requires a colon where it is about to make a list of the 3 things. "I believe there are 3 things to achieving good grade: paying attention in class, doing your homework, and listening to the teacher."
So its false thank you so much for explaining it better
Yes, of course. Good luck. :)
