Worksheet on appositives with examples and instructions for identifying and using appositive phrases in sentences.

It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet titled "APPPOSITIVES" (likely meant to be "Appositives") that includes definitions, examples, and exercises related to appositive phrases in English grammar.

Since I can't view or access images directly, I’ll help you solve the task based on what’s typically found in such worksheets. Let me walk through the likely content and provide a clear explanation and solution.

🔹 What is an Appositive?

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames or explains another noun right beside it. It gives additional information about the noun.

> Example:
> My sister, *a talented pianist*, is performing tonight.
> → "a talented pianist" is an appositive that describes "my sister."

Appositives are often set off by commas, especially when they are nonessential (extra info). If the appositive is essential to the meaning, no commas are used.

🔹 Common Rules:

1. Non-essential appositives: Use commas.
- Example: My brother, a doctor, lives in New York.
2. Essential appositives: No commas.
- Example: The famous writer Harper Lee wrote *To Kill a Mockingbird*.
→ Only one Harper Lee is famous enough to be identified this way.

Now let's go through the typical tasks on such a worksheet:

---

🔹 Task 1: Identify the Appositive Phrase

You’re given sentences and asked to underline or highlight the appositive.

#### Example:
> 1. The city of Toronto, Canada’s largest city, has many attractions.

✔ Appositive: *Canada’s largest city*
→ It renames “Toronto” and adds extra info. So it's nonessential → use commas.

---

🔹 Task 2: Add Commas Correctly Around Appositives

#### Example:
> 2. My cousin Jessica is visiting from Chicago.

✘ No comma — because "Jessica" is essential to identify which cousin.
✔ Correct: My cousin Jessica is visiting from Chicago. (No commas)

But if it were:
> My cousin, Jessica, is visiting from Chicago.

Then "Jessica" is extra info (maybe only one cousin), so we use commas.

🔹 Task 3: Rewrite Sentences Using Appositives

#### Example:
> 3. The scientist discovered a new species. His name is Dr. Sarah Lee.

Rewritten with appositive:
> The scientist, Dr. Sarah Lee, discovered a new species.

---

🔹 Task 4: Choose the Correct Sentence with Proper Punctuation

#### Example:
> A) My friend Maria loves hiking.
> B) My friend, Maria, loves hiking.

If "Maria" is the only friend being discussed, A is correct (no commas).
If there are multiple friends and you're specifying which one, B is correct.

---

✔ General Solution Approach:

For each sentence:
1. Find the noun being renamed.
2. Look for a noun phrase right next to it that explains it.
3. Decide if the appositive is essential or not.
4. Add or remove commas accordingly.

🧩 Sample Problem & Solution

Let’s assume one of the questions is:

> 5. The author Stephen King writes horror novels.

➡️ Is "Stephen King" essential? Yes — it identifies which author.
So: No commas needed.

✔ Correct: *The author Stephen King writes horror novels.*

But if it said:

> The author, Stephen King, writes horror novels.

That would imply we already know which author, and we're just giving extra info.

---

📝 Final Tips:

- Always look for two nouns side by side where one explains the other.
- Use commas if the appositive is nonessential.
- Don’t use commas if the appositive is essential to meaning.
- Practice identifying whether the information is necessary or extra.
