Paralegal PCCE CORE Test Prep

Answer: B - Lana Lawyer walked to the podium, opened her notebook, and began her closing argument. Answer B is correct because it correctly uses commas in a series. Following Strunk & White’s The Elements of Style, a comma follows each item in a series of three or more items that are joined by a conjunction, except the last item. For example, “duty, breach of duty, causation, and damages” is correct (not “duty, breach of duty, causation and damages”). Answer A is not correct because it does not use a comma after “notebook” and before “and.”
