Punctuation Quiz Key

Teacher's note: One of the problems with punctuation quizzes is that the punctuation of some sentences can change by simply changing the intonation of the sentence. Therefore, some of the questions on this quiz may have more than one correct answer. For example, question number 4, "Open the door," could be punctuated with either a period or an exclamation point depending on how the sentence is spoken.
