Answer 2

A: Beach,

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct word that is punctuated correctly is in option A: The word "Beach" followed by a comma. One the the purposes for using a comma, as in this case, is when a dependent clause starts a sentence . This is to separate the dependend clause form the independent clause. But if the dependent clause is a the end, it is not necessary to use a comma.
