Question 2 • Online English 10A

Which sentence uses capitalization correctly?

Answer
A
Last year’s festival in Carlos Garcia park was an enormous success.
B
That musician plays the violin and joined the Symphony just last year.
C
You should visit the Grand Canyon next time you are in the southwest.
D
This year Ray Wallace will run against Governor Anna Lee in the election.

Explanation

In choice D, the names Ray Wallace and Anna Lee are capitalized correctly, and a title directly before a person’s name—“Governor”—is capitalized. In A, “Park” should be capitalized as part of the park’s name; in B, “symphony” is not part of a specific proper name; and in C, “Southwest” should be capitalized when referring to the region.
