INSTRUCTIONS: Add punctuation to the following paragraphs. Include underlining. (Do not eliminate any punctuation already in the paragraph.) When I started school at Glendale Community College I thought I knew everything about being a student. I had graduated from Apollo High School on June 3 2007 with a B+ average and I was sure that college classes could not be more challenging than my high school classes. I moved from my east Glendale address to 7555 North 67th Avenue Glendale AZ 85302 to be closer to campus. Classes started on August 21 2007 and I knew right away I was in for some challenges. On the first day of classes all my instructors told me about their attendance policies but I had thought that, once I was in college, I would not have to go to class unless I wanted to.

Question

Also I realized that I was going to have to do a tremendous amount of reading, something else I hadn't planned on. My English textbook, Writing Paragraphs and Essays, cost more than $40.00. To top it off I discovered that my English class was being taught on the computer. After my first day at Glendale, I remembered my mothers words very clearly Don't think you know so much young man. There is a whole world out there just waiting to challenge you. At that moment I knew she was right.

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1
