The way I learned it was if it's an article or an excerpt, it gets quotation marks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Everything else eas like movies or books or names are underlined/ italicized

OpenStudy (greencat):

Only one uses italics, making it the obvious answer if im not wrong.

OpenStudy (jgirl128):

I don't think it's B because you use quotation marks when referring to a short poem. source: http://web.cn.edu/kwheeler/documents/punctuating_titles_chart.pdf

OpenStudy (jgirl128):

it's not D because you use italics when referring to a movie

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C is using nothing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which makes it wrong

OpenStudy (jgirl128):

yeah, I think it's A. because article titles are always supposed to be in quotation marks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would say A as well

OpenStudy (jgirl128):
