Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. In "Pole vaulting—and shot put—are Olympic track and field events.", the em - dashes are misused as they disrupt the flow.
  2. "The Industrial Revolution (a period between 1750 and 1850) brought many changes to manufacturing." correctly uses parentheses to add non - essential information.
  3. "Students will study economics, and history throughout the course." has an incorrect comma usage before "and" in a simple compound object.
  4. "The show (was a spectacular event) that people will remember for many subsequent years." incorrectly uses parentheses to enclose the verb phrase which is essential to the sentence structure.

Answer:

The Industrial Revolution (a period between 1750 and 1850) brought many changes to manufacturing.
