    The excerpt best illustrates Jack Kerouac’s use of minimal punctuation.

    As you can see in the excerpt, there is only one comma in the sentence, and there should be a period in the end. The sentence could be divided into smaller parts using commas or semi colons, however, Kerouac's style involves as few punctuation marks as possible.

    No words are repeated, every word exists, and there is no dialogue, which is why the other options are incorrect.
