I think it is D.
If I had arrived earlier,I would't have missed the poening act.
(It has two parts)
Yes, it's D.
The correct punctuated sentence is:
C. I often carry a cellphone with me, it helps if someone is trying to reach me.
To determine the correct answer, let's analyze the punctuation in each option:
A. "I saw many of my friends, that I had knew from high school."
In this option, a comma is used before "that," which is incorrect. When using "that" to introduce a restrictive clause, we do not need a comma before it. The correct version should be: "I saw many of my friends that I had known from high school."
B. "Work was especially hard today, Ihad to train someone new to the job."
In this option, there is a missing space between the comma and the following word "Ihad." The correct version should be: "Work was especially hard today, I had to train someone new to the job."
C. "I often carry a cellphone with me, it helps if someone is trying to reach me."
This option is correctly punctuated. It uses a comma to separate two independent clauses, providing a clear pause between the two thoughts.
D. "If I had arrived earlier, Iwould't have missed the opening act."
In this option, there is a missing space between the comma and the following word "Iwould't." The correct version should be: "If I had arrived earlier, I wouldn't have missed the opening act."
Therefore, the correct answer is option C: "I often carry a cellphone with me, it helps if someone is trying to reach me."
