The new cafe on Main Street is known for its delicious pastries, which are made with fresh, local ingredients. The cafe also has a wide selection of coffee drinks, and its baristas are highly skilled in creating latte art. The cafe is open until 10 p.m. every night, offering a late-night option for those seeking a sweet treat or a caffeine fix. The cafe is already a popular spot for locals and tourists alike.
Which choice provides the best punctuation for the underlined portion of the passage?
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The underlined phrase "which are made with fresh, local ingredients" is a nonrestrictive clause because it provides additional information about the pastries but does not change the meaning of the sentence. Nonrestrictive clauses are set off with commas. Choice B is incorrect because it fails to use a comma after the introductory word "which." Choice C is incorrect because it uses a semicolon to separate the nonrestrictive clause, but semicolons are used to separate two independent clauses. Choice D is incorrect because it uses a semicolon and a comma to separate the nonrestrictive clause, which is incorrect.
