Which of the words in this sentence is a noun? The girl likes to run and jump.

  1. and
  2. run
  3. girl
  4. likes

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

A noun is a person, place, or thing.



Which of these sentences is written correctly?

  1. Its been a great day.
  2. It’s been a great day.
  3. Its has been a great day.
  4. It’s has been a great day.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

It’s is used in this sentence as a contraction for It has and requires an apostrophe (‘) to show where letters are missing (h and a). Writing any form of *it’s has” would effectively make it mean “it has has.”



Which words should be capitalized in this sentence?

michelle watched the movie silence of the lambs and was afraid to sleep.

  1. Michelle, Silence, Lambs
  2. Michelle, Movie, Silence, Lambs
  3. Michelle, Silence, Of, The, Lambs
  4. Michelle, Silence

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Michelle is the first word in the sentence and it is a person’s name. Silence and Lambs are the important words in a movie title. Articles and other small words in titles are not capitalized. The word movie, as used in this sentence, is just an improper noun because it is not part of the name of something, so it is not capitalized.



Which sentence is grammatically correct?

  1. Because less people showed up to the party, we served less cookies.
  2. Because fewer people showed up to the party, we served less cookies.
  3. Because fewer people showed up to the party, we served fewer cookies.
  4. Because less people showed up to the party, we served fewer cookies.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Both people and cookies are items you can count and would require the use of the word fewer. The word less is used to describe the amount of something generally appearing in bulk form and, therefore, uncountable, such as less sand or less water. However, you would write “fewer” bags of sand” and “fewer glasses of water.”
