Question 14 • LHS English 10

Which sentence uses brackets correctly?

Answer
A
A deduction reduces the amount of your [income] that is subject to tax, thus generally reducing the amount of tax you must pay.
B
[Even if you are not required to file an income tax return], you may choose to file a return if you are eligible for a refundable credit.
C
See Form W-4 [Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate] to determine if you can claim exemption from income tax withholding.
D
Your status as a full-time student exempts you [from filing federal taxes] if your earnings are less than the filing requirement for your age.

Explanation

Brackets correctly enclose words added to clarify or identify information in a quotation. In choice C, “[Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate]” supplies the full name of Form W-4. The other choices use brackets around ordinary wording that is not an inserted clarification.
