Lesson 9 Punctuation in Quotations Place quotation marks at the beginning and end of the exact words of the speaker. If quoting more than one sentence, put the quotation marks only at the beginning and end of the quotation—not around each sentence. (140, 141) “Lord,” David prayed, “if we cross the river against the wishes of these suspicious natives, they will kill us with those poisoned arrows of theirs. Then who will bring the Gospel to this part of Africa? Lord, show me what to do.” Use a comma, a question mark, or an exclamation mark to set the quotation off from the rest of the sentence. Commas and periods always go inside the ending quotation mark. And remember to begin the quotation with a capital letter. 1. 2. Write the letter of the correct sentence. a. “Just think,” Annie told Christopher, “in two weeks we will be traveling to Belize.” b. “Just think, Annie told Christopher, in two weeks we will be traveling to Belize.” a. “Have you read this book about Saudi Arabia?” the librarian inquired. “It describes the nomadic life of the Bedouin.

I am sure you would find it informative.” b. “Have you read this book about Saudi Arabia?” the librarian inquired. “It describes the nomadic life of the Bedouin.” “It also has some good pictures of the region and people.” “I am sure you would find it informative.” 3. Put quotation marks where needed. In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet. Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee? So there was a division among the people because of him. Rewrite these quotations, adding punctuation marks. 4. Please bring me a book from the library begged Julie Make it a book about horses 5.

One event became nearly disastrous. After Andrew Jackson’s inauguration, his admirers rushed into the White House and ate the cakes, ice cream, and punch that had been prepared for his reception. Then the party quickly grew disorderly. The crowd climbed on the furniture, broke dishes, and ripped the draperies, leaving the place in shambles. When the revelers shoved Jackson aside, he quickly left the scene by escaping through a window.

There are no railroads or stages, but the government has established post stations from ten to twenty miles apart. At each station people keep a number of horses, and sometimes vehicles. Generally a traveler has his own sled and simply hires the horses to pull him from one station to another. The keeper of the station or some of the neighboring farmers furnish these horses, and a man or boy goes along with the traveler to bring the animal back. It is a very satisfactory way of traveling, except that sometimes you must wait an hour or more before horses can be obtained. We Remember Put parentheses around the prepositional phrases.
