The correct answer should be A. Colons are not used to replace question marks, nor to replace strong words, nor to introduce quotation marks.
They may be used to introduce a list, however.
Hope this helps.

Dear sir/madam
I amm a regular user of your transportation service and take your buses to travel to and from my office. I am writing to bring to your attention a few critical issues inflicted upon me and other commuters who use your service. I am hoping you would address these issues promptly.
First, during the last couple of weeks, your buses are making recurring delays and this is affecting our arrival in our workplaces on time. To add more grief, a few buses do not arrive at all. A number of times, I had to wait for more than an hour and then hail a taxi to reach my office. Finally, some buses are full when they arrive and cannot take any more passenger from the Victoria Stand. This situation forces me and many other travellers to either take the congested bus and stand all the way in a miserable condition or wait for the next bus. I believe this would reduce people's trust in your service.
Answer:
1. True.
2. False.
3. The dialog tag is not the start of a new sentence if it is in the middle of a sentence.
4. The sentence is incorrect because the word "said" should have the lowercase "s" as it is part of the middle of the sentence.
5. none of above.
Explanation:
Dialog tags are clauses that identify a speaker of a speech in a text. Examples of speech tags are: She said, he yelled, she asked, he asked, among others.
It is common for these dialog tags to appear in the middle of sentences, being part of the sentence that starts the dialog and not as a new sentence, although this can happen in certain cases. Therefore, the dialog tag is usually enclosed in commas. The comma that precedes the dialog tag must be placed before the closing of the quotation marks, while the comma placed after the dialog tag must be placed before the opening of the quotation marks. An example of this can be seen in the sentence: "The cat is black," said John, "that's why it's so cute."
If the clause before the dialog tag ends with an exclamation or question mark, the comma must not be used.
The answer would be 2. memoirs
