Answer 3

Answer 4

A should not be this...
Felicity replied "that (forte) indicates the music should be played loudly."

but this:
Felicity replied that (forte) indicates the music should be played loudly.

^^quotations used inappropriately

B. not this
"What does (forte) mean? asked Phoebe."

but this:
"What does (forte) mean?" asked Phoebe.

C. not this....
Is it possible "pondered Julia," for an orchestra to perform without a conductor?

but this:

"Is it possible," pondered Julia, "for an orchestra to perform without a conductor?"

never use quotations around the subject... use them around what the subject is saying

D. is correct:)
"In music," said Eileen, "tempo is the speed at which the music is performed."

as i said from c... it surrounds the words, not the subject
does that make sense?
