Answer:

The third sentence - "It is upsetting to think that society punished these people who are now considered heroes".

Explanation:

The given statements except for the third one, are depicted in an informative tone that displays and describes the readers about the sacrifices made by Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela for the reformation of society. The third sentence is going off track as it portrays the consequence that they faced which is diverting the tone and flow of the information. <em>Thus, this one is off-topic as the focus here is not towards the brutality these heroes faced but the sacrifices they made for their beliefs in order to reform the society and how eventually they became successful in their attempt.</em>

Read the following passage and answer the question that follows.
amm1812

The properly formatted example is the last one:

Romans were very particular in their dining habits. They reclined on "special couches" (Phin 429).

For an in-text citation in Modern Language Association (MLA) style, you give a  parenthetical reference to your source by an author name and page number.  The full information about that author and source will be included in your bibliography.

So in the examples shown, the third example is incorrect because it only lists a page number, not the author name.

The second example shown is incorrect because it splits apart the reference to the author (Phin) from the reference to the page number (429).

The first example is close to correct, but is punctuated incorrectly.  The in-text citation in MLA style is considered part of the sentence, so the period goes at the very end of the whole sentence, which means after the reference (Phin 429).

Thus the fourth example shown is the only one that is fully correct in its format.
