Read the sentence below:My English teacher was very practical. She had a lot of comma sense

Which correctly explains the pun in this sentence and the word or words on which it is built?


English—ironic because of the error in the sentence

Very—a suggestion that the opposite is true

Practical—teachers have little practical knowledge

Comma sense—a play on the phrase common sense

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that correctly explains the pun in the sentence and the words on which it is built is the following one: Comma sense- a play on the phrase common sense.

Explanation:

The sentence above is talking about an English teacher, a person who has studied grammar and teaches it for a living. What is more, the person describing this teacher is saying that she is practical. That is why she has a lot of common sense. Therefore, the pun lies on the spelling of this phrase, "common sense", because instead of writing "common", the writer used "comma", which has a similar pronounciation. Besides, a punctuation mark such as a comma is part of the scope of study of an English teacher.
Since a pun can be referred to as "word play", comma sense is what correctly explains the pun.

“Pecos Bill” is an example of what type of story?A. Epic Tale
B. Tall Tale
C. Myth
D. Legend

Answers

The correct answer is option B.

A TALL TALE is a story about a person who is larger than life. "Pecos Bill" is the main character or hero of one of those stories told by people settled in America many years ago in the times of pioneers. The main characteristic of a tall tale is that descriptions are exaggerated in order to attract the children's attention.

Answer:

B. Tall Tale

Explanation:

A tall tale  is an imaginative tale of adventures or amazing achievement with very exaggerated descriptions of people and events.

Pecos Bill is a fictional American cowboy raised by coyotes. His adventures are said to have been told in oral tradition first, until they were featured in a cartoon strip by Edward O'Reilly and Jack Warren in the 1930s.

The rest of the choices are incorrect because an epic tale involves a hero who engages in a crusade to help or rescue another character or community; a myth is traditional story with supernatural elements; and a legend is an inaccurate popular story which is sometimes considered historical.
