Answer:
"Farenheit 451" was a popular novel by Bradbury which was published in 1953, which discussed a lot of technological conveniences the world would have in future, which eventually came true. Following is the list of technological conveniences mentioned by Bradbury in his novel, along with the examples from the novel:
1) Parlor Walls (Televisions) : "big walls in each room people and lived inside those wall"
2)Seashell and Thimble Radios (earbuds): "And in her ears the little Seashells, the thimble radios tamped tight, and an electronic ocean of sound, of music and talk and music and talk coming in, coming in on the shore of her unsleeping mind"
3) Ultra Fast Subway (Bullet trains): "The subway fled past him"
4) The self buttering toast (Automated machinary): "Toast popped out of a silver toaster, was seized by a spider metal hand that drenched it with melted butter"
5) The Beetle (Cars): "The beetle was in high thunder. The beetle came skimming. It was upto 120 mph, it was upto 130 mph atleast...."
Answer:
The correctly punctuated quotation seems to be the first one:
According to Dr. Brock at the Amazon Institute, "capybaras have webbed feet for swimming and can even sleep underwater by keeping their nose just above the surface for breathing."
Explanation:
We can easily eliminate the last two options, since their use of quotation marks is completely wrong. Quotation marks are supposed to establish, so to speak, where the quote begins and where it ends. That is, they are supposed to show which words belong to the person being mentioned, separating them from the author's words. In the last two options, the marks are including words that were not said by Dr. Brock.
<u>Now, when it comes to the first two options, we need to be careful because they are very similar. They are both using the quotation marks correctly. They also include the period before the last quotation mark, which is also correct. The difference between them seems to be only the capitalization of "Capybaras" in the second one. Such capitalization is unnecessary, which is why I believe the first option is the best choice.</u>
