(1) In 1751, the Philadelphia Provincial Assembly had a bell made. (2) It was for the new State House. (3) The bell weighed more than 2,000 pounds. (4) The bell was 12 feet in circumference around the bottom. (5) It came to be known as the Liberty Bell because it was inscribed with a motto about liberty. (6) Unfortunately, the Liberty Bell cracked in 1752 during a test ring. (7) To fix the bell, the Philadelphia Assembly had it recast. (8) Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835. (9) It was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral. (10) However, that is probably just a legend. (11) It is a fact that on February 22, 1846, the bell cracked again. (12) That crack could not be fixed. (13) The Liberty Bell has had a crack in it ever since. Which is the most effective way to combine sentences 8 and 9?
A.Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 while it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
B, Cracked again in 1835, some people say while tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
C. Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 and was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
D. Although some people say the bell cracked again in 1835, it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.
Most people frown about #4. It is a comma splice which means that 2 main clauses hung together by a comma. The better way to do it is with a ; since the two statements are unrelated. In this case it is a very fine point of grammar which is more annoying than wrong.
#1 is wrong because there is no main clause. The bell is the beginning of the main clause.
#2 is passive. It's not wrong, but the writing style could be better.
#3 <<<< answer The and is the proper way to connect 2 predicates.
