Answer: Raise your volume when you read a sentence with an exclamation point to show exciteme

Pause briefly when you reach a comma, and pause a bit longer at a semicolon.

Come to a complete halt when you reach a period.

Make your voice rise to a higher pitch at the end of sentences with a question mark.

Step-by-step explanation:

Those four correct answers from your question are considering one of the rules on how to read properly when it comes to punctuation in the sentences. When reading, readers must pay attention to those punctations and often those are comma, a period, question mark and exclamation point.

They are used to make the sentence more understandable and to reach the point of the idea of the sentence.

  • The answers that are not correct are ''reading quickly without pausing at commas'' which is incorrect because it will confuse the readers. Where there is a semicolon there should not be a complete halt as it is when it comes to a period at the end of the sentence.
