This looks like a homework assignment. You will never learn if you have others do your work for you. Where do you think the commas go?

1.I never go to bed until 10 00 PM.
2.I have three hobbies. I collect coins, read, and knit.
I would like to rephrase this sentence. My hobbies are collecting coins, reading newspapers and knitting.
3. Glen doesn't have any friends. He's always mean to them.
I would like to rephrase this sentence too. Glen has no friends. He is always mean to them.
4.You will need stationaries for school: Pencils, erasers, and markers.
5.There are three rules in my class. Raise your hand, don't speak out, and stay on task.
6.I'm feeling really sick today. I have a headache, and I have nausea.
7.I wish I had a pet. I have always liked animals.
8.I have been really happy today. I just found out my sister topped the exam.
9.The friends I play with are as follows: Jill, Jack, Tom, and Eden.
10.There are four parts to a plant: roots, stem, leaves, and flowers.

speak out has different meanings. They are as follows:
1. To talk freely and fearlessly, as about a public issue.
2. to state one's beliefs, objections, etc., bravely and firmly
3. to speak more loudly and clearly
In your sentence 5, I think butt in/interrupt would fit in.
