Great job on answering the questions! Let me explain how we arrived at the correct answers.
For the first question about identifying the incorrectly punctuated sentence, we can look for any sentence that has incorrect punctuation. Let's examine each option:
A.) "I went to the library and checked out two books, a movie, and an audio recording." - This sentence is correctly punctuated with commas separating the items in the list.
B.) "I promised to be on time for the are show so that I could help sign up the participants." - This sentence has a couple of errors. Firstly, "are show" should be "art show." Secondly, there should be a comma after "time" to separate the two independent clauses: "I promised to be on time for the art show" and "so that I could help sign up the participants."
C.) "I want to learn more about Ireland, but y classmates prefer to study Scotland." - In this sentence, there should be a space after the comma before "but." Additionally, "y" should be "my."
D.) "My homework includes reading a story, writing a paragraph and finishing some math problems." - This sentence is correctly punctuated with commas separating the items in the list.
Therefore, the incorrectly punctuated sentence is B.) "I promised to be on time for the are show so that I could help sign up the participants."
Moving on to the second question regarding what should be in italics on a Works Cited page:
A.) Title of a book - Yes, the title of a book should be italicized.
B.) Title of a webpage - The title of a webpage is typically put in quotation marks, not italicized.
C.) Title of a short story - Like the title of a book, the title of a short story should be italicized.
D.) Title of a newspaper article - Similar to the title of a webpage, the title of a newspaper article is usually enclosed in quotation marks, not italicized.
Therefore, the correct answer is A.) title of a book, which should be in italics on a Works Cited page.
Well done! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
