Fans of the film Moana (2016) may not know that the deep and humorous voice behind the _______ belongs to comedian, actor, and musician Jemaine Clement. The versatile performer has appeared in everything from television commercials to action movies, but voice acting, specifically, has become a notable part of his career. Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
Correct answer: A (parsed from the explanation — this source omits an answer key for this item)
Explanation
Choice A is the best answer. The convention being tested is the use of punctuation around noun phrases. No punctuation is needed because the noun phrase “Tamatoa the crab” is a restrictive appositive, meaning that it provides essential identifying information about the noun phrase before it, “the character.” Additionally, no punctuation is needed between the noun phrase “the deep and humorous voice…crab” and the verb “belongs” that indicates whom the voice belongs to. Choice B is incorrect because no punctuation is needed. Choice C is incorrect because no punctuation is needed. Choice D is incorrect because no punctuation is needed. 29 SAT PRACTICE TEST #5 ANSWER EXPLANATIONS SAT ANSWER EXPLANATIONS n READING AND WRITING: MODULE 2
