Let's solve each sentence by adding the correct punctuation. The goal is to make each sentence grammatically correct and clear in meaning.
---
1. hurray hurray
- This is an expression of excitement or joy.
- "Hurray" is an interjection, so it should be capitalized and followed by an exclamation mark.
- Since it's repeated for emphasis, we can write it as one sentence with proper capitalization and punctuation.
✔ Corrected: *Hurray! Hurray!*
---
2. is this a giraffe
- This is a question asking about identification.
- It starts with "is", which is a question word, so it should begin with a capital letter and end with a question mark.
✔ Corrected: *Is this a giraffe?*
---
3. the boy is sick
- This is a declarative sentence stating a fact.
- The first word should be capitalized, and the sentence ends with a period.
✔ Corrected: *The boy is sick.*
---
4. anita is tall and pretty
- This is a statement about Anita.
- The name "Anita" should be capitalized (as it's a proper noun), and the sentence ends with a period.
✔ Corrected: *Anita is tall and pretty.*

5. where are you
- This is a question asking about location.
- It begins with "where", so it should start with a capital letter and end with a question mark.
