Which sentence contains a properly punctuated and capitalized direct quotation? A. Henry exclaimed, Ow! A bright light is shining in my eyes! B. "After a long journey upstream," The narrator said, "The salmon lay their eggs." C. "Look at that red bird eating seeds at the feeder," called Grandma. D. "I will meet you", said Ted, "in the auditorium".

Answers

Well, A is wrong. There are no quotations!
B is also wrong, when continuing a sentence, the first word of the next sentence does not need to be capitalized. 
D is wrong because the comma needs to be inside the quotations, not outside. so your answer is C :)

The sentence which is properly punctuated and capitalized is

C. "Look at that red bird eating seeds at the feeder," called Grandma.


A. is wrong because there is no quotation marks, it should be written

Henry exclaimed, "Ow! A biright light is shining in my eyes!"


B.  is wrong because you don't need a capital letters at every break, only if it's a new sentence. It should be written.

"After a long journey upstream," the narrator said, "the salmon lay their eggs." 


D.  is wrong because the comma and period belong inside the quotation marks. It should be written

"I will meet you," said Ted, "in the auditorium."

Which is a central idea of Gates’s Mister Jefferson and the Trials of Phillis Wheatley?

Answers

I'm pretty sure, that the main idea concentrates on the racial discrimination and stereotypes of American society in XVIII century. The story is about a black woman named Phillis Wheatley, that was kidnapped in Africa and sold on the market as a slave to the American loyal family. But besides her chores she had an opportunity to study and get more intelligent, so she wrote poems which have become popular. This book is aimed to show the struggle of the black people that are being humiliated by those who treats them as nothing, the black people who can disprove Thomas Jefferson's words : "Blacks are inferior to the whites in the endowments of both of body and mind", and prove that they are not savages.

Answer:

Jefferson's criticism of Phillis Wheatley inspired other Africans to demonstrate African equality

Jefferson's criticism of Wheatley generated more interest in African literature

Criticism of Wheatley's work was based more on gender than race
