The sentence that is punctuated correctly is D. Penelope's favorite aunt, Jane, decided to come for a short sweet visit.
The sentence that is punctuated correctly is C. Penelope wrote a long, detailed story for her creative writing class.
To determine which sentence is punctuated correctly, we need to look at the rules of punctuation. Specifically, we are looking for appropriate use of commas to separate additional information within a sentence.
In sentence A, there are unnecessary commas around the phrase "full of people." This phrase is not additional information but essential to the meaning of the sentence. Therefore, the commas are incorrect.
In sentence B, there are unnecessary commas around the phrase "sequined fluorescent dress." Again, this phrase is not additional information but essential to the meaning of the sentence. Therefore, the commas are incorrect.
In sentence C, there is a comma correctly used to separate the additional information in the phrase "long, detailed story." This additional information adds more detail about the type of story Penelope wrote for her creative writing class.
In sentence D, there are correctly used commas to set off the additional information in the phrase "Jane." This additional information provides more detail about Penelope's favorite aunt.
Therefore, the sentence that is punctuated correctly is C. Penelope wrote a long, detailed story for her creative writing class.
