<p>This references Question 50 of English Practice Section 3 (p.169) in my Princeton 1,296 ACT book.</p>

<p>Anderson's model was different from todays models, though, because it was hand-activated by a lever from inside the car.
* "todays models," is underlined.</p>

<p>F. NO CHANGE
G. today's models,
H. todays' models
J. today's models</p>

<p>I picked choice J, but the correct answer is G. Can you explain why a comma is need after "models"? It seems awkward to pause there if you read it out loud.</p>

<p>Thank you so much!</p>

<p>The comma is needed to set off the word ‘though’ which interjects the sentence and does not need to be there. The following sentence would also work:</p>

<p>Anderson’s model was different from today’s models because it was hand-activated by a lever from inside the car.</p>
