Question 8 • GA-GSE English Language Arts 11

Which sentence is written correctly?

Answer
A
Ms. Andrade showed us a documentary in class today because the film “Focuses on a similar subject” to a book we are going to read.
B
Ms. Andrade showed us a documentary in class today because the film, “focuses on a similar subject,” to a book we are going to read.
C
Ms. Andrade showed us a documentary in class today because the film “focuses on a similar subject” to a book we are going to read.
D
Ms. Andrade showed us a documentary in class today because the film, “Focuses on a similar subject” to a book we are going to read.

Explanation

The quoted words are part of the sentence, not a complete sentence standing alone, so the first word inside the quotation marks should not be capitalized. The quotation also fits smoothly into the sentence and does not need commas around it. Choice C correctly reads, “the film ‘focuses on a similar subject’ to a book.”
