Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

Complete these sentences from George Bernard Shaw's The Doctor's Dilemma with words that are punctuated and spelled correctly.

This, of course, does amount to a sort of working or rule-of-thumb [1] but it means that you will do anything, good or [2] provided you get enough people to keep you in countenance by doing it also. It is the sort of conscience that makes it possible to keep order on a pirate [3] or in a troop of brigands. It may be said that in the last analysis there is no other sort of honor or conscience in existence—that the assent of the majority is the only sanction known to ethics.

[1] Choices:
A) conscience.
B) conscience:
C) conscience
D) conscience;

[2] Choices:
A) bad:
B) bad,
C) bad;
D) bad.

[3] Choices:
A) ship:
B) ship;
C) ship
D) ship,

The first answer requires a semicolon because we have two separate sentences, this is, two independent clauses, and in this case, we use the semicolon to connect them.

The second answer requires a comma as we have an appositive that does not provide essential information, so we separate it with a coma to designate additional information and maintain the structure of the sentence complete and clear.

The third answer requires a comma before the conjunction or because the rest of the sentence means the same as what precedes it. In this case, we use a comma as a sign of equivalence, to clarify that pirate ship is equivalent to a troop of brigands.
