Punctuation is the use of spacing, conventional signs and certain typographical devices as aids to the understanding and correct reading of written text, whether read silently or aloud. Another description is, "It is the practice, action, or system of inserting points or other small marks into texts in order to aid interpretation; division of text into sentences, clauses, etc., by means of such marks."

In written English, punctuated words are vital to disambiguate, or remove uncertainty from the meaning of sentences. For example: "woman, without her man, is nothing" and "woman: without her, man is nothing" have very different meanings; as do "eats shoots and leaves" and "eats, shoots, and leaves.

The sharp differences in meaning are produced by the simple differences in punctuation within the example pairs, especially the latter.

Which sentence best shows the writer’s choice to use reflection in the narrative?

Bring on the Beets

This is a draft of a student's narrative essay.

My dad used to say there aren't really foods he doesn't like, just foods he hasn't liked yet. I'm inclined to agree with him because there's a clear line of demarcation in my life: days of beet disdain and beet delight.

Have you ever had a yellow beet? Me neither, until an innocent visit to Atwoods Café on an otherwise ordinary day. The lunch crowd buzzed as I sat at a table for two near the door, surveying the menu until I landed on a list of appetizing ingredients: Bibb lettuce, asparagus, goat cheese, pistachios, and . . . yellow beets with a lemon dill vinaigrette. Dressing on the side and hold the beets. That was my first inclination.

"What can I get for you today?" my server asked.

"I'd like your Bibb lettuce salad with dressing on side and no beets, please," I replied.

"Have you ever had yellow beets?" my server inquired, peering over the rim of his glasses like my dad.

"Actually, no," I replied sheepishly. "It's a texture thing—they seem so slimy."

"Ours are delicious. Give them a try and, if you don't like them, I'll bring you a beet-free salad." And he was off before I could object.

Let me tell you, yellow beets are beautiful! They're a vibrant, golden yellow that brightens a plate like sunshine. I'm no culinary expert, but when food looks good, it tastes better, right? These yellow beets sure did. They were smooth, not slimy, and mildly sweet, not so earthy, though they grew to fullness underground. This was my moment of conversion. My delight in yellow beets extended beyond the walls of Atwoods as I sought this delicious root vegetable on other menus, in recipes, and at farmer's markets.

I have learned there really aren't foods I don't like, just foods that I haven't liked yet and, who knows? Maybe I'll give bananas a second chance.

I will meet any challenge, overcome any obstacle, and beat any rival that comes my way.

Can someone please help me in finding our what the title of this book is?!
I read this book a couple years ago and it was really good, but I can't remember the name of it. It was about this young girl with flaming red curly hair who lived as a peasant. This girl made friends with a prince, I believe, but that friendship was strained when the prince didn't acknowledge her in front of his friends. Later from the incident with the prince, the girl goes home only to find out that she was adopted and her real father was some nobleman that gave her away after her mother passed from giving birth to the girl. The girl is then sent to live with her father who treats her coldly, along with his new wife and step daughters. However while her father is dismissive of the girl, his wife and step daughters were worse towards her out of spite. The only one who was kind to the girl was one of the step daughters that was mute. One day the wife locks the girl in a closet but the mute girl let her go. Later the prince from her childhood comes to where the girl was living after searching for her for years. After looking into some magic mirror he sees a warrior with hair of fire waving a white flag in a battlefield. The prince recognizes the warrior as the girl and finally sees her again.

That's about as much as I remember of the story. I feel like the name of the books was Beatrice or Beatrix but I can't remember.

Read the passage from the american plague. alexander hamilton felt the president could indeed move congress. after all, hamilton reasoned, the government would not automatically cease functioning if an enemy army captured the capital. why wouldn't the same principle apply in the case of a devastating natural disaster, such as a plague? but thomas jefferson and james madison disagreed and could not be budged from their position. during the formation of the federal government, they argued, individual states had been extremely wary about giving away too much of their governing power to any future president. why is this passage best defined as a cause? because it explains the relationship between washington, hamilton, and congress because it explains the relationship between washington, hamilton, jefferson, and madison because it explains the results of washington’s uncertainty about moving congress to philadelphia because it explains what produces washington’s uncertainty about moving congress to philadelphia

In 1957, when the schools of Little Rock, Arkansas, were still segregated by race, nine African American students sought to attend the all-white Central High School. The reaction to their effort resounded throughout the country. On the first day of school, Governor Orval Faubus called upon the Arkansas National Guard to bar the nine students from entering the school, and a mob of protesters harassed and threatened them. In response to this embarrassing spectacle, President Eisenhower sent federal troops into Little Rock to protect the students, who became known as the Little Rock Nine. As Americans watched these events on television, the courage and grace of the Little Rock Nine helped turn the tide in favor of civil rights for African Americans.
