When combining two sentences, which of these instructions should NOT be followed?
A. Replace the period at the end of the first sentences with a comma.
B. Insert a conjunction after the second sentence.
C. Lowercase the first word in the second sentence.
D. Insert a conjunction after the first sentence.

Respuesta :

B. Insert a conjunction after the second sentence.

Answer:

The instruction that should not be followed is B.

Explanation:

You should not insert a conjunction after the second sentence because the instruction states that there are two sentences combined. Therefore, the end of the second sentence is the end of the idea. There are no elements for the conjunction to relate. If it was added, the cojunction would be left there hanging and the sentence would be grammatically incorrect (see 1 and 2).
