3. The correct revision of the sentence would be option b. So, the revised sentence would be: "This category consists of children who were born into successful families, such as children of doctors, lawyers, and bankers."
1. After success, there should be a comma. The correct sentence would be: Despite parents and other parental figures going above and beyond to give their offspring all the required assets to achieve success, many children fail.
2. Commas should be added to the following places in the sentence: "Still, even after all of the hatred he receives at visiting arenas, LeBron James remains one of the most popular athletes in the world." The commas are used to set off introductory words and phrases.
3. The correct revision of the sentence is option b: "This category consists of children who were born into successful families, such as children of doctors, lawyers, and bankers." The phrase "such as" is used to provide examples, and a comma is added after the introductory phrase for clarity.
1. In the sentence "Despite parents and other parental figures going above and beyond to give their offspring all the required assets to achieve success, many children fail," a comma is needed after the word "success." The comma is used to separate the introductory clause "Despite parents and other parental figures going above and beyond to give their offspring all the required assets to achieve success" from the main clause "many children fail."
2. In the sentence "Still, even after all of the hatred he receives at visiting arenas, LeBron James remains one of the most popular athletes in the world," there should be two commas. The first comma should be placed after the word "Still," as it is an introductory word. The second comma should be placed after the phrase "at visiting arenas," as it provides additional information but is not essential to the meaning of the sentence.
3. The revised sentence should be: "This category consists of children who were born into successful families, such as children of doctors, lawyers, and bankers." The correct choice is option b. The sentence requires a comma after the word "families" to separate the main clause "This category consists of children who were born into successful families" from the subordinate clause "such as children of doctors, lawyers, and bankers."
