Question 5 • CA-Common Core English Language Arts 11 A-CR

Anthony is writing a research paper about healthy eating, and this is one entry on his works cited page.Adams, Ruth. “Eat Apples.” The Journal of Nutrition 222 (2011): 26-31. Print. What does “26-31” represent?

Answer
A
the pages of the source that Anthony used
B
the issue number of the source
C
the date the source was published
D
the pages of Anthony’s paper where he used the source

Explanation

In a works-cited entry for a journal article, the numbers after the publication year give the article’s page range. “26–31” means the article appears on pages 26 through 31, so it identifies the pages of the source Anthony used. It is not an issue number or the pages of Anthony’s own paper.
