Paul Rusesabagina may imply that language possesses the capability to influence people's actions or responses in various situations. For instance, he poses the question "What led to this event? Very simple: language." He discusses a seemingly “cool” person who becomes a soldier wielding weapons, attributing blame to his upbringing as he believes he was repeatedly told he was foolish and unattractive or unathletic. This serves to reinforce the dominance of the privileged. Thus, it can be seen as a clear instance where the impact of words can shape an individual's destiny. <span />

Correctly punctuate/create the complex sentences below.
Lady bird [7112]

Answer:

The proper punctuation should be as follows:

Explanation:

  1. After having lunch at the cafeteria, Ben proceeded to the gym for a swim. A comma should follow the term cafeteria to demarcate these two clauses.
  2. As a result of the storm damage, the ferry service will be suspended today. Again, a comma is necessary to distinguish between the clauses.
  3. The scheduled training session for the company, originally set for Tuesday, has been postponed. In this case, the appositive (the added information about the training session) should be enclosed in commas or parentheses to separate it from the main clause.
  4. If you plan to attend college this fall, don’t forget to register for a discount card. Since the dependent clause starts the sentence (If you plan to attend college this fall), a comma should follow it, similar to the first sentence.
