A. Correctly punctuated

Answer 5

Both c and d are correct, but I prefer d.

Answer 6

d should be correct from my research but there are dictionaries with hardworking as one word i guess go with the simplest answer which is close the words into one adjective...since i assume the posters are taking a test go its sad your teachers put a question that is disputed without telling you which one they want..
