A. “I don’t pretend to know all the answers<u>”,</u> James said, “but I do know a lot of the right questions”. comma goes before " and also the period.
B. “I don't pretend to know all the answers” James <u>said</u> "but I do know a lot of the right questions.” said needs a comma after it.
C. "I don't pretend to know all the answers, James <u>said</u> "but I do know a lot of the right questions.” said needs a comma after it.
D. “I don't pretend to know all the answers,” James said, "but I do know a lot of the right questions. missing " after questions.
The best fit definition for this example would be definition 3. Definition 2 doesn't apply to closing a window correctly so that is already out of the question. A bolt that is part of a window isn't made out of fabric so definition 4 is out as well. Now that it's down to 1 and 3, considering it says "please make sure you <u>latch</u> the bolt", keep in mind that the definition of 'latch' is "a metal bar with a catch and lever used for fastening a door or gate" so choice number 3 would best fit :) Hope this helps! x
