More About Summaries

First of all, comma rules and conjunctions.

Look at the following sentences and try to decide what the comma rules are:

Coordination--

1. The auditorium was filled with people, but the sea of faces did not intimidate me.
2. I had read the heroine's part, and I had sung a song.

Subordination --

3. They had chosen me for the role even though I was untrained.
4. Although I was untrained, they had chosen me for the role.

Rules?

Now, read the handout and answer the questions in your daybook.

Homework:

1. Finish reading the handout and answer the questions in the back.

2. Have your Solo #2 paper (Summary of "Lazy Eyes") ready to hand in tomorrow.

2. TWFTD: mastectomy in OED.
