Paralegal PCCE CORE Test Prep

Answer: A - We saw Reggie’s hot air balloon (which was shaped like a hamburger). Answer A is the correct choice because the information within the parentheses is not a complete sentence, and because it correctly places the period outside the close parenthesis. Answer B is not the correct choice because “Reggie was given a trophy” is a complete sentence, so the first statement should be a separate sentence, and the statement within the parentheses should be a separate sentence with the period within the close parenthesis. Answer C is not the correct choice because the statement within the parentheses is not a complete sentence and the period is within the close parenthesis. Answer D is not the correct choice because “Reggie used it to advertise his restaurant” is a complete sentence and should be a separate sentence with a period before the close parenthesis.
