Read the following sentence:
We came home from the concert which was in the next town and went directly to bed.
Where should the two commas go in the sentence?
A.
after home and went
B.
after concert and directly
C.
after concert and town
C. after concert and town
The two commas in the sentence should go in option C, after "concert" and "town."
To determine where the commas should go in the sentence, we need to identify the nonessential clause. Nonessential clauses provide additional information that is not necessary for understanding the main idea of the sentence. In this case, the nonessential clause is "which was in the next town."
To separate the nonessential clause from the rest of the sentence, we should place commas before and after the clause. From the given options, the correct placement of commas is C. - after "concert" and "town".
Therefore, the correct answer is:
C. after concert and town
