The correct answer is D. Vice President Hill approached the podium and read the opening lines of the Gettysburg Address.

Explanation:

In general terms, all proper nouns should be capitalized, this includes the last names and names of people; specific places such as mountains, parks, rivers, cities countries; names of companies and brands; names of specific historical events and in the case of titles such as president or vice-president capitalization is a must in the case the title is placed before the name of the person.

According to this, in the sentence presented the words "Vice President", "Hill", and "Gettysburg Address" should be capitalized because in the case of "Vice President" this is a title placed before the name of the person; also "Hill" and "Gettysburg Address" are proper last names as the first is the last name of a person and the second is a historical episode. Thus, the correct sentence is "Vice President Hill approached the podium and read the opening lines of the Gettysburg Address".

The fourth sentence contains correct capitalization.

"Vice President Hill approached the podium and read the opening lines of the Gettysburg Address."

When vice president goes before a name, as in a specific vice president, it needs to be capitalized. That is why the sentence should capitalize Vice President Hill. Also, the Gettysburg Address is the name of a speech and should always be capitalized.

Idk if dis will help but here is a summary.

The Chorus wonders aloud about the origins of Oedipus. An old man is led in by Oedipus’ servants and identified as the herdsman, the man who gave the baby to the Corinthian messenger so many years ago: Oedipus insists on him revealing exactly what he knows. The messenger says that Oedipus is that same baby, who was abandoned by his father and mother - and the herdsman reacts with fear and begs the messenger to hold his tongue. Oedipus threatens the messenger with physical violence, and finally the man confesses that the baby was a child of Laius's house.

Oedipus asks if it was a slave's child or Laius's child, and the shepherd confesses that it was Laius's child - a child that Jocasta gave him to expose on the hillside because of a prophecy that he would kill his father. The shepherd says he didn't have the heart to kill the infant, so he took it to another country instead. “They will all come, / all come out clearly!” cries Oedipus. “Light of the sun, let me / look on you no more!” (1183-4). He has finally realized what has happened and all exit except the Chorus. The Chorus reflects on the mutable nature of human happiness - all happiness, they say, is only “a seeming” and “after that turning away” (1191-2). Nobody can ultimately escape fate.
