Answer:

The correctly punctuated sentence is:

Juan plans to travel from Santa Fe, New Mexico, to Boulder, Colorado, for business.

Explanation:

Commas are punctuation marks used to show a brief pause or break in transition in a sentence. There are some rules to observe when using a comma, starting with the rule obeyed in the answering of this question, I will briefly explain them.

1. Commas are used to set off all geographical names: in the sentence; 'Juan plans to travel from Santa Fe, New Mexico, to Boulder, Colorado, for business', after 'Santa Fe', there is the introduction of a geographical name 'New Mexico', and by the rule, it is preceded by a comma. The same rule is observed with 'Boulder', introducing 'Colorado'. Also the use of a comma after 'Colorado' before 'for' is important, because it tells a change in transition, from naming a place, to the reason for going there, without which the phrase 'Colorado for business' will be considered just as one idea (the name of a place)

Other rules of using commas include:

a. commas are used to separate two or more independent clauses, when they are joined by the conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, or yet. Example, We wanted to come over but, the rain was heavy.

b. commas are used after introductory clauses, phrases, or words coming before the main sentence, e.g. Moreover, we still did it.

c. commas are used to set off and to end non-essential parts of a sentence. E.g. The big house, which was built long ago, was demolished.

d. commas are used to separate contrasting coordinating elements in a sentence to show a distinct pause or shift.

Example, Although he recently has an accident, he ran fast.

I suggest you check out the other rules of using comma, to help your understanding.

Answer:

Juan plans to travel from Santa Fe, New Mexico, to Boulder, Colorado, for business.

Explanation:

The sentence allows a reader to pause and emphasize words and phrases. Each phrase is separated and emphasized distinctly. This prevents a run-on sentence that confuses readers.

<span>Which poets address it in terms of the times they live in (and its threat of fascism) and which address it in a more personal way?
</span>
Answer: First we should know that both of these poet's had a bad experience in their lives, suffering similarly under tyranny and oppression during World War II, which shaped their perspective in very different ways. Milosz is the one that took it very personally and considered his life as emotionally destroyed while Szymborska looked at it as another chance at life that might never be given again. It is clear that the poet that addresses death in terms of the times they live in and as a threat of fascism is Milosz. This is apparent in the poem “City Without A Name”.

I hope this helps, Regards.
