The correct answer is D.
None of the words in this excerpt needs to be explain since they can all be understrood through context.
The world "passé" may be in a foreign language and unfamiliar for some of the readers, but the sentence structure helps understand its meaning from context.
The word "markerspace" is described in the same sentence, and therefore does not need further explanation.
The phrase "staying power" may be new for some readers but its meaning can be easily deducted from the word choice and the context of the sentence.
Answer:
Quotation 1 contains a capitalization error.
Quotation 2 wrongly uses 'ellipses.'
Quotation 3 makes incorrect use of a comma.
Explanation:
The first quotation communicates a complete sentence and therefore, the first letter must be capitalized('The brave men') to make it grammatically correct.
In the second quotation, ellipses have been used incorrectly. It is a punctuation mark consisting of three periods('...') to indicate the omission of a word or phrase that can be inferred from the text. It communicates a complete idea but in this quotation, the idea is not completed after 'nation...' and therefore, the readers are not able to understand it.
The last quotation employs comma inappropriately succeeding the word 'finally' as the sentence is quite short and the use of comma unnecessarily breaks its meaning. There is no need for a comma here as the meaning is more clear and precise without using it.
