Question

Which sentence uses correct punctuation? A)"Help! It's got my leg!" screamed the heroine in the bogus horror movie on TV.B) "Help! It's got my leg!," screamed the heroine in the bogus horror movie on TV. C)Help! It's got my leg! screamed the heroine in the bogus horror movie on TV. D)"Help! It's got my leg!", screamed the heroine in the bogus horror movie on TV.

Answer 1

I believe the answer is D because it uses a comma, allowing the word 'screamed' to be lowercased. 

Answer 2

Choice A is incorrect because there is no comma following the word, "leg."

Choice C is incorrect because there are not quotation marks present starting at the word, "Help," and ending at, "leg."

Choice D is incorrect because the comma is outside of the quotations between, "leg," and "screamed."

Thus, that leaves us with Choice B. Which is correct.
