Thank you And here's your shmoop du jour Brought to

00:05

you by lists grocery list birthday list Shmoop dooz Your

00:09

lists are checking the following Just skimming skimming I don't

00:13

need a polka You water help ality All right we're

00:22

done Yeah because we say so All right What change

00:25

needs to be made to sentence eighteen and hear the

00:27

pencil answers blah blah All right well let's get gone

00:31

All of these answer choices are sort of on the

00:34

right track Well except he who again is just really

00:37

opposed to change Let's Just go ahead and take that

00:39

one out of the running So as we were saying

00:42

these answer choices are all on the right track Why

00:45

Because they all deal with commas There's a common issue

00:48

in this sentence We just need to find out what

00:50

it is So let's review because abstract artists don't always

00:54

focus on the subject The way that they use line

00:59

either The noun texture is part of a list line

01:25

texture and color To keep our sentences coherent we always

01:29

need to separate items on the list with comments This

01:32

idea of course is what leads us to our correct

01:34

answer Option b since line is part of the same

01:38

list as texture It also should be followed by a

01:41

comma though if you ask us being followed by a

01:44

commons a little creepy maybe time for a restraining order 00:01:48.279 --> [endTime] theo
