What is the correct way to write the missing words in this sentence?

Cara chose to study Jupiter, Saturn, _____________for her science project.

  1. Neptune, and The Sun
  2. neptune, and the sun
  3. Neptune, and the Sun
  4. Neptune, and the sun

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Both “Neptune” and “Sun” are capitalized in this sentence because they are proper nouns. Proper nouns are always capitalized and they include name-specific people, places, organizations, and things.
Note: If you were talking about suns, in general, of which there are many in the universe, you would not capitalize the word sun. Example: “Each solar system revolves around a sun.” Then, you would not be talking about any particular sun. But, when you use the article the before sun and it is mentioned along with other celestial bodies, it indicates one particular sun and that is capitalized.



Which transition best completes this sentence correctly?

Sarah did not realize until after she arrived in New York that she had left her ball gown at home; _____________, she was fortunate enough to find a shop that rented them by the evening.

  1. because
  2. while
  3. however
  4. after all

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

However is the correct answer because ‘however’ indicates that the relationship between two independent clauses is one of contrast or opposition. In this example, the first independent clause is a negative one, while the second is the positive that contrasts it.



Which of these sentences contains an active verb tense?

  1. The woman was given an engagement ring by her boyfriend.
  2. The boy was rewarded with a trophy for his win.
  3. The lawyer presented his case to the jury.
  4. The spaghetti was quickly devoured by the hungry children.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because active tense is when the subject of the sentence is performing the action.

Passive verb tense shows the receiver of the action as the subject and is used in the other three choices. Active and passive verb tense is not dependent on whether the verb is in present or past tense.



Which sentence is grammatically correct?

  1. Kevin prays at St. Mary’s Church fervently for his sister’s salvation.
  2. Kevin prays fervently at St. Mary’s Church for his sister’s salvation.
  3. None of these are grammatically correct.
  4. Kevin prays for his sister’s salvation at St. Mary’s Church, fervently.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

This choice presents the information in the clearest and most concise manner. Modifiers, such as “fervently,” should be placed adjacent to the verb they modify. The other two versions of the sentence do not accomplish this.
