HELP PLEASE ??? Which sentence contains an error? A.Ten months seem like a lifetime when you’re young, but not when you’re older. B. Twenty-five days is a long time at sea. C.The Sun Also Rises is one of my favorite books. D. all of the above

OpenStudy (rose21):

B At sea, twenty-five days is a long time. i think that is the correct way

OpenStudy (rose21):

@UnkleRhaukus what do u think ?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

Maybe the last word in the first sentence should be 'old' instead of 'older'.

OpenStudy (rose21):

no i think it makes more sense with older

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks, but here's what i was thinking Change: Insert quotation marks around "Sun Also Rises", because it is the title of a book.

OpenStudy (rose21):

YES

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so maby all of the above?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

I don't see the mistake in the second sentence, but those quotation marks do improve the third sentence. Maybe you are right that 'older' is better than 'old'.

OpenStudy (rose21):

no i think just C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright thank you so much (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think C...there need to be quotations

OpenStudy (rose21):

ur welcome :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or it needs to be italiscized

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true

OpenStudy (rose21):

ye both make sense
