The correct answer is - the introductory text in the sentence cannot stand alone.


The colon after 'including' should be removed because it is completely unnecessary. The word 'including' acts as a colon of sorts, so using both is redundant. You can either delete the colon and leave the sentence as is, or delete the word 'including' and add a colon, but not both.

Answer:

<em><u>mr</u></em>. and <em><u>mrs</u></em>. <em><u>hunt</u></em> are members of the <em><u>elks club</u></em> of <em><u>topeka, kansas.</u></em>

Explanation:

Mr. & Mrs. = always capitalized before a name

Hunt = that's their last name and names are proper nouns

Elks Club = because it refers to a specific club. what club is it ? an elks club. but if it said they were member of a club, you wouldn't have to capitalize it cause it isnt specific!

Topeka, Kansas = specific locations/places are proper nouns and need to be capitalized
