Answer:

The answer to your question would be that the sentence that demonstrates the correct use of the colon is the following one: Please pick up the following items from the grocery store: milk, eggs, bread, and cheese. That is, your answer would be D.

Explanation:

A colon means "that is to say" or "here's what I mean". You should use the colon to introduce an item or series of items and you should not capitalize the first item after the colon. In this case, the information after the colon includes the series of items that should be picked up from the grocery store.

These are a lot of question on one thread but I'm going to try and answer them all. Some of the I cannot explain so you're just going to have the answers.

1. Felipe never had any interest in playing basketball.

In this case, it's going to be happiness where you remove “y” and add “i”.

3. homophones.

Homophones are, for example: ate, eight.

4. Too much cheese isn't good for your diet.

5. crisis

All of the others are plural. I don't think crisis has any plural form.

6. fameous

It's going to be famous.

7. They don’t never have chocolate.

The double negative is don't never which means: do not never

You just have to add s to make holiday plural. Like this: holidays.

11. Reign and rein are homophones.

In this sentence, they’re using the alphabet t repeatedly. “Tripping and trembling they traipsed through the trees.”

Remorse and regret are same or almost similar words.
