Well,
Let's start with these rules:
1. There should be a comma before a(n) direct/indirect quotation.
2. The ending punctuation should be before the close quotation.
3. The quotation should begin with a capital letter.
Option A does not have a comma, and does not capitalize the first letter, so it is eliminated.
Option C does not have a comma either.
Option B's exclamation mark is outside of the quotation marks, which excludes that.
The only option left is D, which is the correct answer.
The correct answer is rewards.
There are various types of motivation, but all of them involve some kind of a reward, whether it is something intrinsic, like happiness when you learn/achieve something, or extrinsic, like good grades/money. It is not a secret that we perform better when there is a reward involved because we are anticipating receiving that reward and therefore we try hard to get it.
A ) Paulo`s time:
1.56 x 10^4 s = 1.56 x 10,000 s = 15,600 s
60 s = 1 min
15,600 s : 60 = 260 min
260 min = 4 h 20 min ( standard notation )
b ) 4 h 16 min < 4 h 20 min
Miguel ran the race in the shorter amount of time.
Question:
The story below is culled from the "<em>Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass."</em>
In the afternoon of that day, we reached Annapolis, the capital of the State. We stopped but a few moments so that I had no time to go onshore. It was the first large town that I had ever seen, and thought it would look small compared with some of our New England factory villages, I thought it a wonderful place for its size – more imposing even than the Great House Farm!
Which of these is a true statement about travel during Douglass's youth?
Answer:
It was a rare occurence for any slave to go beyond the perimeters of the plantation where they were required to work and even sleep sometimes.
So the trip to Baltimore was a great privilege, one that Frederick, who had lived most of his life on the farm, found to be a refreshing experience.
Cheers
