Underline each word that should have an apostrophe and rewrite the word below, using apostrophes where they are needed. Its hard to understand why people decide to buy certain cars. Even though a persons old car might be running fine, once he sees one of the new models, hes not going to be happy until he has traded in his old car. John, one of my best friends, is a good example of a victim of new car fever. Johns 1993 Camaro was running fine, but when he saw the advertisements for the 1996 Camaro, with more valves for extra fuel injection and a sleek, sporty new air foil, he thought of thousands of reasons why he needed a new car. Johns girlfriend didnt see much of him for several Saturdays while he was listening to this salesmans sales pitch and looking at that dealers display. Meanwhile, his girlfriend had started going out with an old friend of hers and Johns. She says she doesnt mind going out in her new boyfriends 1968 pickup at all. Now Johns got a new car, but is looking for a new girl to go out with, preferably one who will be impressed with his new cars extra valves. Instructions: In the following paragraphs, add an apostrophe wherever necessary. Ethans house is a world of its own. Downstairs lives his Uncle Abe, who takes advantage of his sisters hospitality by living rent-free. Ethans fear prevents him from ever entering Abes apartment. Abes old, yellow teeth and his stringy hair frighten Ethan. Upstairs, in the front room, Ethans parents sit for hours and talk, oblivious to the old man in the basement. Pete, the familys old beagle, sprawls on a hooked rug. In the back room, the boys play ping-pong. Ethans ping-pong table takes up the entire room, leaving a space of less than eighteen inches for each of the players. Ethans and Mikes gentle pinging and ponging almost covers the noise from the basement. On the front porch, Ethans girlfriend, Becky, sits with his grandmother and shells peas. The plunk, plunk, plunk of the peas landing in the round tin tray blends with the raindrops drumming on the screens and the ping-pong balls tapping back and forth inside. Becky hasnt heard Abes sawing and banging in the basement. Of course, no one in the neighborhood realizes what is happening beneath the familys house until the cops sirens tear through the peaceful evening. Perhaps everyones uncle is not an escapee from the state penitentiary, but Ethans is.
