Answer:

His name was Geoffrey of Monmouth.

Explanation:

Geoffrey of Monmouth was a cleric born between 1095 and 1100 who is famous to this day for his influence over the Arthurian myths. Much of his life cannot be accounted for since information is scarce. We do not know precisely where he was born; some sources say he was Welsh, others say he was British. The exact year when he was born is also controversial.

Geoffrey was the author of the "History of the Kings of Britain", or Historia Regum Britanniae, which was translated into several languages. Nowadays, this work is considered unreliable. But Geoffrey's earliest work was probably the Prophecies of Merlin which, as its name reveals, contains a number of prophecies attributed to the wizard Merlin. Some say the character Merlin was created by Geoffrey himself, but Geoffrey claimed to have based him in older Brittonic traditions.

7. Which of the following sentences has an error in capitalization? A. Maybe you've already heard the news: Jamie and Alex are g
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The answer is: B. He looked at me carefully and stated, "Don't worry because I'm here."

Explanation:

In British English it is frequent to use a capitalization in the first letter of the word after a colon, but only if it's a proper noun or an acronym as in American English but it also depends on one thing: if a sentence is being introduced, this is why the first option cannot be possible. The penultimate option doesn't have any mistakes either as Atlantic Ocean has to be capitalized in both words, for the word "ocean" belongs to that part of the proper name; the same with the last option: Central Park and New York are proper nouns and must be capitalized. So the second option shouldn't be capitalized, with the comma and then the quotation marks, for someone saying something, unless it was a proper noun.
