Question

the road runners club of america; has a main office in arlington, virginia, with a beautiful view of the potomac river. which choice makes the sentence most grammatically acceptable? a no change b club, of america c club of america d club of america,

Explanation:

The original sentence has a semicolon which is incorrect here as the part before the semicolon is a noun phrase (not a complete sentence) and the part after is a complete sentence. We need to correctly punctuate the name "The Road Runners Club of America" and then have the main clause. Option D corrects the punctuation: the name is "The Road Runners Club of America" and then a comma is used to separate the introductory noun phrase from the main clause "has a main office...". Option A uses a semicolon incorrectly. Option B mispunctuates the name. Option C doesn't have the necessary comma after the name to separate it from the main clause.

Answer:

D. Club of America,
