- Question:
- Children sometimes knock at the Wilsons' door, as if taunting the couple to show themselves, but neither the old man nor his sister ever answers.
- Answer:
- The answer Incorrect is not correct.
- Explanation:
- "Wilsons"' is the correct possessive form of the plural noun "Wilsons." You need the first comma before the parenthetical phrase "as if taunting the couple to show themselves," and you need the second before the co-ordinating conjunction "but," which links the two independent clauses.
