سوال گرامری تستی زبان انگلیسی درباره punctuation

Identify the sentence with incorrect comma usage

A) We hiked for hours, finally reaching the summit, exhausted but exhilarated
B) My favorite hobbies include reading, writing, and playing video games
C) "May I borrow your car?" he asked hopefully
D) Despite the rain, the festival went on as planned

Sentence A, "We hiked for hours, finally reaching the summit, exhausted but exhilarated," has incorrect comma usage While the first comma could be used to separate the introductory phrase "finally reaching the summit," it creates an awkward pause and disrupts the flow of the sentence

Here's why the other options are correct:

B) My favorite hobbies include reading, writing, and playing video games: This sentence uses commas correctly to separate a list of items
C) "May I borrow your car?" he asked hopefully: The commas set off the direct question and the speaker's tag, both common uses of commas
D) Despite the rain, the festival went on as planned: The comma separates the introductory phrase "Despite the rain" from the main clause, which is grammatically correct
