Answer 1

Sentence 13 needs a question mark added to it because it is an interrogative sentence. It is asking what has been accomplished, and although rhetorical, still needs a question mark.

Often times, sentences that need a question mark will start with words like "what, who, when, where, why, and how." but can start with others.
