The first two sentences have similar structure, a salutation followed by a question or a declaration. However, the first uses an exclamation followed by a question; whereas, the second uses a comma after the salutation and then continues making it all one sentence, If you use the first sentence's pattern, i.e. using an exclamation instead of a comma, this is marked wrong. Please explain, as this is a recurring issue.. Thanks
