17. Select the sentence in which a word has been italicized incorrectly.
A. He was an avant garde poet who lived hard and died young.
B. Funding for the NASA space program has been cut in recent years.
C. According to an article in today's Washington Post, Senator Giles will resign.
D. Her favorite Broadway musical is South Pacific.
Student Answer: C
Answer: Incorrect

Answers

Let's do this.

10.
• A is wrong because Macedonia is a country. Countries are capitalized.
• B is wrong because it's not a SPECIFIC valley, so no need to capitalize it.
• C is correct.
• D is wrong because the first word in a quotation generally needs to be capitalized (unless it's an embedded quote, which you can look up online).

12. This is a frustrating question. There is absolutely no set rule for how long a paragraph should be. But since you got A wrong, I think that D might be your best answer. Again, I'm guessing here because there is no set rule on this.

17. Unfortunately I can't answer this one with total confidence since you didn't italicize anything when you typed in the answer choices. But I know this much:
• A might need to have "avant-garde" italicized, since it's a foreign phrase. However, sometimes foreign words and phrases become common enough in English that we no longer need to italicize them (like "cappuccino" for example). Many people consider avant-garde to be one of these phrases.
• Nothing in B needs to be italicized.
• C is obviously wrong.
• In D, South Pacific needs to be italicized. It's the title of a play, and titles of books and plays are always italicized.

The first one is C. I believe
