Answer 1

What did you get for this?

Answer 2

A wouldn't work because teacher is not a proper noun so it shouldn't be capitalized.

Answer 3

I think it is either B or C

Answer 4

Okay good. It's not A, or D. So that leave B or C. Which do you think is the most reasonable?

Answer 5

I think B because Rock in Ayers Rock is capitalized
