The Thinking Machine was the creation of American novelist Jacques Futrelle, one of numerous 'detective' characters inspired during the early Twentieth Century by the popularity of Arthur Conan Doyle's master detective, Sherlock Holmes. The Thinking Machine was the nickname of Professor Augustus S.F.X. Van Dusen, a scientist turned armchair detective, who possesses a peculiar and unemotional personality - and a massive intellect - that he applies in a most logical manner to solving crimes, always assisted by an investigative reporter.

Select the sentence that correctly uses quotation marks.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. Ashley asked, "Do we have homework tonight?"

Explanation:

If you start by telling who said it, use a comma and then the first quotation mark.

Punctuation always goes inside the quotation marks if it is a direct quote. If you use an exclamation point of a question mark, do not use a comma.

Dialogue begins with a capitalized word, no matter where in the sentence it begins.
