Explanation for question 4:
To determine which sentence uses commas correctly, we need to look at the rules for comma usage. In this case, we are using commas to separate elements in a series (Home of the Brave, before the class went to lunch).
Option A incorrectly places a comma before "before," as it is not necessary to separate the elements. Option B incorrectly places a comma after "teacher," as it disrupts the flow of the sentence. Option D incorrectly places a comma after "read," as it also disrupts the flow of the sentence.
Option C is the correct answer because it does not use any unnecessary commas and maintains clear and concise sentence structure. The correct sentence is: "The teacher read Home of the Brave before the class went to lunch."
