Welcome to Al Dhafra Grade 4 English - Direct Speech Punctuation
Direct Speech Punctuation by Safia Haroon Rasheed on Scribd
Rules of Direct Speech
1.
Speech marks (“ ”) are use to show what is spoken aloud by a character.
E.g. “Hello. How are you?”
said Abdulla.
2.
You start the speech marks before the first word spoken.
E.g. He walked at and said,
“Good to see you.”
3.
You close the speech marks after the last word they speak not at the
end of each sentence.
E.g. “Would you like
something to drink?” Ahmed asked.
4.
When someone new speaks you must start a new line.
E.g. “Thank you. Do you have
any cola?” Hamdan requested.
“Of course,” Nayef answered.
5.
The first word of a new piece of speech must have a capital letter.
E.g. Mohammed smiled and
said, “Perfect!”
6.
The same rules of punctuation must be used in speech such as commas and
question marks.
E.g. “Do you want ice?” he continued.
7.
You must always use punctuation to separate what is being spoken and
the rest of the writing.
E.g. “No ice thank you,” Sultan
concluded.

So, what is the correct answer?
Firstly, fish don’t drown, not in the conventional sense anyway.
Secondly, if they are all in a tank, the fish cannot swim out of it or escape.
And thirdly, if three have died, they would be floating at the top of the
tank.
Which means all 10 would still be in the tank.
