Question

Choose the option that best corrects the sentence at the underlined point.
She called her accountant on Tuesday morning:

• A. morning;
• B. morning,
• C. morning.
• D. NO CHANGE

Answer 1

The correct option is C morning.

According to general rule, a period is used to mark the end of a complete sentence. Thus, the correct answer will be Option C, in place of the colon.

The remaining options are incorrect, as a comma is used to indicate a pause whereas, a semi colon is used to separate major sentence elements. A colon is used to indicate emphasis or introduce a list.
