Answer 1

The correct answer with proper punctuation is:

D. My father always said, "Be careful what you wish for."

A is incorrect because it should be "Em," he called to his wife. (the comma should be inside the quotation marks)
B is incorrect because it should have commas before and after "she said."
C is incorrect due to the incorrect placement of the comma after "said."
