Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 4.80 Punctuate Dialogue Correctly skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which sentence should the student use in the final draft?

A"The last clue is on the envelope." Harper held it up for the group.

B"The last clue is on the envelope," Harper held it up for the group.

C"The last clue is on the envelope." harper held it up for the group.

D"The last clue is on the envelope" Harper held it up for the group.

Solution & Explanation:“Harper held it up for the group” is an action beat, not a speaker tag, so the quoted sentence ends with a period inside the quotation marks.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Which option is ready to publish?

A"The setting changes in chapter three." said Camila. "That change affects the mood." replied Ravi.

B"The setting changes in chapter three," said Camila. "That change affects the mood," replied Ravi.

C"The setting changes in chapter three," said Camila. That change affects the mood," replied Ravi.

D"The setting changes in chapter three," said Camila "That change affects the mood," replied Ravi.

Solution & Explanation:Camila and Ravi each need separate quotation marks, and the commas after “The setting changes in chapter three” and “That change affects the mood” stay inside the quotes before the speaker tags.
