Texas EOC English 2: 4.2 Editing

Okay we're done We're done skimming That is alright what's

the correct way to write sentence three choices rejection Okay

so the big problem here is that public education is

capitalized Usually we only capitalized proper noun like barack obama

Albuquerque and mr volker are weird neighbor who crams his

guard with statues of himself but separate issue there anyway

Public education doesn't reference something specific enough to be considered

a proper noun This makes it a common noun and

like all calm announce it should not be capitalized Knowing

this helps us to quickly eliminate a which leaves public

education capitalized is actually extra wrong since it uses the

plural verb refer to refer to the singular noun education

original sentence three is right in using the singular verb

refers like he refers don't go getting full of yourself

sitting three you've still got your problems though so goodbye

anyway choice see has the same Issue as the original

How many times do we have to say that public

education should not be capitalized And c is also unnecessarily

wordy so it's a definite no meanwhile choice dee is

the awkward ist sentence that ever awkward it we did

there monday You really think it's a good idea for

thomas to use that phrase to the schools of elementary

middle and high in his paper Well phrases like that

make it sound like he didn't pay attention in any

of the schools he attended and be finally solves the

problem here Since public education isn't a proper noun it

doesn't need to be capitalized However we can use quotation

marks to show that we are using a term that

some people defined differently in this case be correctly uses

quotation marks and keeps the grammatical structure of the sentence

which happened to be correct to begin with the astute

shmoop er may ask do we have to have quotation

marks here which we say no but it's a nice

touch which one might say well what if i don't

feel like it to which we say fine don't if

you want your paper to be mediocre Okay sorry we 00:02:24.03 --> [endTime] officially went too far with that scenario No
