Help please!!!! Proofread this excerpt from a review of the film The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Which sentence contains punctuation errors?
Links/ irrelevant answers WILL be reported.
Answer:
I'm pretty sure the punctuation error is in the third sentence;
'This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist; Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly.'
Just after the word 'protagonist', the author uses a semi-colon (;). A semi-colon is used to link two separate clauses that have similar ideas together. It turns two clauses into one.
In this situation, the semi-colon is not doing that, because that would imply that if we were to separate the "two clauses", it would look like this:
"This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist. Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly."
This wouldn't make sense. Instead of a semi-colon, the author should've used a comma!
The 2nd to 3rd sentences of an introduction paragraph should be a thesis that states your stance, the two points you'll make to support it, and a counterclaim w/ rebuttal context to help the reader understand the argument to come a hook topic sentence to grab the reader's attention

Passage
Thesis Statement:
Summer reading is a valuable way to increase classroom performance because it helps students retain important skills from year to year.
Source 1:
A study conducted by Northern State University shows that the retention of critical reading skills is up to 25 percent higher in students who participate in the school's summer reading program.
Source 2:
A poll conducted by the Easthampton School District revealed that students who read books over the summer felt "better mentally prepared" for the upcoming school year than those who did not read.
Source 3:
Education expert Janna Knopp pointed out that "the brain isn't technically a muscle, but it might as well be. We need to exercise it, or it gets weak. It's no surprise that students who take up summer reading are in better shape when school starts up."

Her world is made up of books
But no one would dare to look
To see if she’s really there
Hidden between stacks of books
Right over there in the corner
No one would dare sit next to her
But when you look closer
She’s a bit of a blurr
For her life is made of ink and paper
Ideas and more
For she is her own maker
Her life may not be of war
But it’s not of happiness either
She has no friends
And doesn’t mind
Because the books that she spends
Are her one and only true friend
Answer: (inspired by the inspirational Nat)
(edited version)
Her world is made up of pages,
But no one would dare to look,
Is she really there,
Hidden between stacks of books,
In the corner,
Isolated,
And when you look closer,
Her face is a blur,
Living on ink and paper.
She is her own maker,
Life not of war,
Nor peace,
And no where in between.
She doesn't mind that her books,
Ink and Paper,
Are her only true friends.

Rikki-tikki-tavi” is told in the third-person point of view. One indicator of this is the use of third-person pronouns, such as he, she, they, it, them, etc. Using this point of view allows the audience to imagine the story from the minds/views of many characters. Do you think the third-person point of view creates a fuller, richer story line or creates a story that is confusing or difficult to follow? Support your thinking with specific examples, details, and reasons. https://read.activelylearn.com/#student/reader/660011/notes
