Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This choice properly completes the sentence by adding an independent clause that explains why Mary is watching the shooting stars. Option B is incorrect because adding "because" at the beginning of the sentence would create a dependent clause instead of an independent clause which does not give the sentence the proper structure. Option C is not a grammatically correct construction.
