C. The events actually took place over the course of several years, not over a short time as Shakespeare suggests.
Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar" is heavily based on Plutarch's "Lives of Noble Grecians and Romans." In "Lives of Noble Grecians and Romans", Plutarch shows that the events took place over the course of some years, but that sort of format would have been impossible for a 3 hour play. So Shakespeare had to change it to be over a short period of time.
The sentence that is written correctly is <u>C. My father has just won a trip to Australia.</u>
<span><span>A. is wrong because Australia is a proper noun and should be capitalized.</span></span>
<span><span /></span><span><span>B</span></span><span><span>. is wrong because father in this case is not a proper noun and should not have been capitalized and Australia is a proper noun and should be capitalized.
</span></span><span><span>D. is wrong because father in this case is not a proper noun and should not have been capitalized.</span></span>

Answer:
C. The poem's word choice and word order
The best sentence that shows the lack of interest of white Americans in the lives of African Americans and other minorities is “They shy away from romantic stories about Negroes and Jews because they feel that they know the public indifference to such works, unless the story or play involves racial tension.”
In this sentence of the excerpt we can infer publishing houses will not sponsor books or publications based on stories about minorities and black people because the public is not interested in those stories and would not buy books related to topics that have minorities as main characters.
