I push Brandy aside dramatically and stated, “I’m going to do it.


What change is needed in sentence 8?


Insert quotation marks after it

Change push to pushed

Insert a comma after dramatically

Change aside to a side

Answer:

Insert quotation marks after it.

Explanation:

When using quotation marks with dialogue, you use quotation marks before the dialogue and after, for example:

"The quick fox jumped over the lazy brown dog."

The sentence 'I'm going to do it.' only had one quotation mark, and that was before it. It was missing the second one. Correctly, it would be "I'm going to do it."

What is the main idea in this passage:

When people think of Antarctica, they think of snow and ice. When they think of deserts, they think of sun, heat, and sand. Yet in spite of its cold temperatures, Antarctica is actually a desert. In fact, it is the largest desert on the planet. A desert is a very dry environment that receives less than ten inches of precipitation yearly. On average, Antarctica gets less than two inches. Most of that precipitation is in the form of snow, but rain or ice can sometimes fall as well.
