Question 1 of 5
I know you'll be busy on your trip, but will you send me a postcard from Germany?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Question mark. In this context, the speaker is asking a question, seeking confirmation about receiving a postcard. A question mark is used to indicate an interrogative sentence, making it the appropriate punctuation mark. A period (A) would imply a statement rather than a question. A colon (B) is used to introduce a list or explanation, not suitable for a direct question. An exclamation mark (D) would be inappropriate as the sentence is not expressing excitement or strong emotion.
Question 2 of 5
If you go to the market, please pick up some beef, carrots, and celery, and I will make some of that delicious stew we had last week. Which comma should be removed in the sentence above?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because the comma after the word 'delicious' is unnecessary. This comma creates a comma splice, where two independent clauses are improperly connected. Removing this comma would result in a correct sentence structure. Choice A is incorrect because the comma after 'market' is necessary to separate the introductory clause. Choice B is incorrect as the comma after 'beef' is needed to separate items in a list. Choice C is also incorrect as the comma after 'celery' is crucial for clarity in the list of items.
Question 3 of 5

Question 4 of 5
Which of the following movie titles contains a pronoun?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: The Man Who Knew Too Much. "Who" in this title is a pronoun that refers to the man. A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun. In this case, "who" replaces the noun "man." The other choices (A, B, C) do not include any pronouns. "Rear Window," "North by Northwest," and "The Trouble with Harry" do not contain any pronouns and are all movie titles that consist of only nouns and prepositions. The key is to identify the word that replaces a noun to determine the presence of a pronoun.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following sentences has an error in capitalization?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because "Florida" should not be capitalized as it is a common noun referring to a location. In sentence A, "East Coast" is capitalized correctly as a proper noun. In sentence C, "English Composition II" is capitalized correctly as a specific course title. In sentence D, "Jersey Shore" is capitalized correctly as a proper noun. Therefore, the error in capitalization is only present in choice B.
