Answer 4

1b, 2b, 3a

1: Commas on dates always go after the number and before the year, never the month.

2: This sentence is inverted. Really, it doesn't make a lot of sense, but that is where the comma goes, yes.

3: In this case, the words captain and crew are not naming the captain and crew. They are improper nouns because they remain undefined. Do capitalize Voyager, though, becuase it is a name.

Answer 5

1. B you do not place a comma between the month and day.

2. B the comma is not needed.

3. A captain and crew are not proper nouns. If it was Captain Kirk, or Captain Sparrow then you would use an upper case letter.

Answer 6

1) b-you don't need a comma after the month when writing dates.
2) b-there is a natural pause after the "Climbing higher..."
3) a-captain and crew aren't proper nouns, while Voyager is.

Answer 7

1 -B, 2 - B, 3 - A

Answer 8

1. b. 2.b. 3.a
3 would only b capitalize if they were naming a specific captain and crew.

Answer 9

1(b)
2(b)
3(a)

Answer 10

1] B
2] B
3] The first letter in the alphabet. For some reason when I go to submit, it only shows a star. lol
