Which sentence correctly uses apostrophes to show joint ownership?A) Jennys and Sams’ wedding was joyful.
B) Jenny’s and Sam’s wedding was joyful.
C) Jenny’s and Sam wedding was joyful.
D) Jenny and Sam’s wedding was joyful.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I am assured that option ‘’D. Jenny and Sam’s wedding was joyful.’’ of course is the right one, because according to the basic grammar rules, when we have an example where the main object ( the wedding) belongs to several pronouns (Jenny and Sam), we need to put possessive "s" ONLY after the last pronoun (in that case after the second).
Answer 2
Answer:

D) Jenny and Sam's wedding was joyful is the correct way to use apostrophes to show joint ownership. Using it this way makes the readers understand that "their" wedding was joyful. The other options use grammar incorrectly and make the sentence less clear to the reader. The apostrophe must be placed before the S on the last persons name to correctly show joint ownership in this sentence.

Which excerpt from Tinker v. Des Moines shows how precedent helps support an argument?A. "I, for one, am not fully persuaded that school pupils are wise enough, even with this Court's expert help from Washington, to run the 23,390 public school systems [n4] in our 50 States."
B. "Other cases cited by the Court do not, as implied, follow the McReynolds reasonableness doctrine. West Virginia v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624, clearly rejecting the 'reasonableness' test, held that the Fourteenth Amendment made the First applicable to the States."
C. "Only a few of the 18,000 students in the school system wore the black armbands. Only five students were suspended for wearing them. There is no indication that the work of the schools or any class was disrupted."
D. "In our system, students may not be regarded as closed-circuit recipients of only that which the State chooses to communicate."

Answers


In my opinion, the most reasonable way of supporting an argument reveals in the second statement B. "Other cases cited by the Court do not, as implied, follow the McReynolds reasonableness doctrine. West Virginia v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624, clearly rejecting the 'reasonableness' test, held that the Fourteenth Amendment made the First applicable to the States." This one makes the speaker’s position apprehensible for us.

The correct answer is B. The excerpt from Tinker v. Des Moines that shows how precedent helps support an argument is: "Other cases cited by the Court do not, as implied, follow the McReynolds reasonableness doctrine. West Virginia v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624, clearly rejecting the 'reasonableness' test, held that the Fourteenth Amendment made the First applicable to the States".

This excerpt shows how the Supreme Court uses decisions of other cases already resolved to support arguments within cases in decision at the moment.

In the present case, the Court uses the precedent West Virginia v. Barnette, in which the doctrine of "reasonableness" of McReynolds is not admitted, to apply it to the case Tinker v. Des Moines.
