Also, here are some tips for the written answers!
10. An ellipsis can indicate a long pause in a sentence, or a break in a characters thought. Think about how this might indicate what the character is feeling!
11. The ellipsis is used to create an omission, leaving out additional information. Think about what information the author might have left out and be sure to quote the original text!
12. (Make sure not to use my examples, or you'll get in trouble for plagiarism!) Singular possession: add an apostrophe and an s. E.g., Adam's bat. Plural nouns: add an apostrophe after the s. E.g., the teachers' desks. Forming a contraction: replace the missing letter with an apostrophe. E.g., don't instead of do not. The O in not is replaced with an apostrophe, and the words are combined.
13. For the first sentence, you can use a comma to separate items in a list. E.g., Today, I went to biology, history, and mathematics. For the second sentence, you can use a comma to add additional information. E.g., John, who is my best friend, decided to come over today. For the third sentence, you can use a comma to separate actions. E.g., After the basketball game, I went to the toilet.
