ii. and if you are wise, you will wear full long - sleeved woolen undershirts even on a summer trip.
iii. a common garment in the west is the copper - riveted overall.
iv. i bought a pair of ordinary khaki riding breeches, and had a tailor cover them completely with unbleached buckskin.
options:
○ i and ii
○ i and iii
○ i and iv
○ ii and iii

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Sentence I: The commas are used appropriately to set off the introductory phrase "on round - up" and the dependent clause "when the chuck wagon goes along", and the quotation marks for "grub" are correctly placed.
  • Sentence II: There is a hyphen error in "long - sleeved" (missing hyphen in original? Wait, no, the original has "full long sleeved" which should be "full - long - sleeved" or maybe a different error. Wait, actually, let's re - evaluate. Wait, sentence III: "copper - riveted - overall" has incorrect hyphenation; it should be "copper - riveted overall" (no hyphen after riveted). Sentence IV: The punctuation seems correct. Wait, no, let's check again. Sentence I: "But on round - up, when the chuck wagon goes along, the cookfire has his 'grub.'" The commas are used to separate the introductory phrase and the dependent clause, and the quotation is correct. Sentence IV: "I bought a pair of ordinary khaki riding breeches, and had a tailor cover them completely with unbleached buckskin." The comma before "and" is correct as it separates two independent clauses. Sentence II: "And if you are wise, you will wear full long sleeved woolen undershirts even on a summer trip." There should be hyphens: "full - long - sleeved". Sentence III: "A common garment in the West is the copper - riveted - overall." The last hyphen is incorrect; it should be "copper - riveted overall". So sentences I and IV are correctly punctuated.

Answer:

I and IV
