Reasons the others are wrong:
- My sister Marcie, who loves to read is spending the day at the library. — needs a comma after "read" (nonrestrictive clause): "...who loves to read, is..."
- We will go to the museum and then we will go out to dinner. — when joining two independent clauses it's standard to use a comma before "and": "We will go to the museum, and then we will go out to dinner." (short clauses sometimes omit it, but the safer convention uses the comma)
- “I prefer chocolate ice cream over vanilla” said the boy. — missing comma inside the quotation: "I prefer chocolate ice cream over vanilla," said the boy.
