Which sentences are punctuated correctly?
a) some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance others workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners.
b) that's the other thing i learned: being active is just as important as eating better foods.
c) over the years, many of us have read the words of henry b. adams: “a teacher affects eternity; she can never tell where her influence stops."
d) you know the feeling. it's minutes until the school bus comes, but you just rolled out of bed, threw on some clothes, barely brushed your teeth, and now you’re racing out the door to catch the bus.

The sentences that are correctly punctuated are Sentences B, C, and D.

Sentence A is not correctly punctuated as it is a run-on sentence.  Contrary to what the name “run-on sentence” implies, a run-on sentence is not a sentence that runs on with lots of words.  It, for instance, is entirely possible for a grammatically correct sentence to have, even, over a hundred words as long as it is properly punctuated.  In fact, a run-on sentence is a sentence this simply missing punctuation.  For a sentence to be considered a run-on sentence the appropriate punctuation will be missing between two complete thoughts.  That said, Sentence A has two complete thoughts, and they are as follows:

Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance

others workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners

There are three ways to correct a run-on sentence.  

1) You could use a period between the two complete thoughts:

Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance.  Other workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners.

2) You could use a semicolon between the two complete thoughts:

Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance; other workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners.

3) You could use a comma/conjunction between the two complete thoughts:

Some workers train dogs to become service dogs for people who need assistance, and other workers accompany the mobile spay and neuter project for inner-city pet owners.

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

in general, fiction refers to plot, settings, and characters created from the imagination, while nonfiction refers to factual stories focused on actual events and people. however, the difference between these two genres is sometimes blurred, as the two often intersect.
