Final answer:

The corrected sentence should read: "Oh my, Bruno Madrigal can tap his head and rub his belly at the same time!" Additional sentences have also been corrected to demonstrate proper comma usage, addressing common errors such as a missing comma after an introductory clause or before a conjunction in a compound sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the sentence provided, the correct punctuation would be: "Oh my, Bruno Madrigal can tap his head and rub his belly at the same time!" The interjection "Oh" is followed by a comma to signal a pause. Now let's correct some other sentences:

  • I finally found my keys, and I got to work just in time.
  • Mrs. Contreras threw out her old coffee table and cleaned the carpet.
  • Taking the elevator to the roof, we hoped we could see the skyline and the bay.
  • Though Susan wasn't feeling well, she went to the store anyway and bought ice cream, pizza, and candy.
  • I let my neighbor borrow my phone because she said hers was tapped by the police.

Here, we have enhanced the clarity of each sentence by adding or removing commas where necessary. By doing this, we ensure that the sentences flow smoothly and the meaning is preserved.
