Hope this helps!
The correct answers are:
_________________________________________________________
b. immediately after the information or quotation to be documented ;
_________________________________________________________
c. enclosed in parentheses;
_________________________________________________________
d. very brief .
_________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:
_________________________________________________________
Choice: [A]: "immediately after the last page of the text "— is INCORRECT. This refers to the "Works Cited" section — { in MLA format }.
____________________________________________________________
Choice: [E]: "complete information about a source" — is INCORRECT.
To the contrary, "<u>in-text citations</u>" are: "very brief" — {refer one of the correct options — [D]: "very brief" .}. In fact, MLA format style —or any format style—cannot — and does not provide <em><u>complete </u></em>information about a source in any part of the the work. This would, literally speaking, be impossible. Also, for the most part, in many cases, this would be impractical, as well. This would apply <u><em>particularly </em></u> to "<u>in-text citations</u>". Furthermore, the MLA format—and the many other scholarly formats —have provisions for the inclusions of more thorough information about sources used in a "Works Cited" [e.g. MLA format] or "Citations" or "References" or "Footnotes" or even "Annotated Bibliography". Additionally, these provisions tend to provide sufficient information for the scholar/other reader to allow for <span>to find/access/verify any credible sources (e.g. journals, books, other publications) — should anyone desire.

As such:
____________________________________________________________
Choice: [F]: "</span><span>gives the exact information as on the works-cited list" — is INCORRECT. Furthermore, the "in-text citations" provide easy reference for the reader to specific — and more detailed — description of the source in the "Works Cited" section at the back of the paper — with minimal distraction to the reader.
____________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>: The "MLA" stands for the "Modern Language Association" .

Hope these answers—and explanations — have been helpful to you.
Best wishes in your academic pursuits!

Answer:
I ran, and ran until there was nothing left but trees in sight. I ran through the woods, my heart pounding and my feet constantly slamming at the ground frantically. I was scared for my life because behind me was a killer. A killer who slaughtered everyone I ever loved and is now coming for me.
I cringed at every twig that broke, and every leaf that crunched beneath my feet because I knew he could hear me. The autumn wind was cold and relentless pushing me back as I pushed forward.
He came closer and closer to me and my heart raced higher with every step he took that was closer to me than before. I did not want to die. But I was helpless against him. I found a hollowed out tree and quickly sheltered within. I heard him run past me and I stayed quiet.
As soon as I knew he was gone, I cried and cried. Everyone I ever loved is dead, I am truly alone, and now I know that there is no man I can trust.
Reasoning for writing this bit:
I wanted to have fun and write a story. now i'm gonna make a book on this.
