Question

12/45
which quote is embedded correctly?
after killing the man, o’flaherty describes how the sniper “became bitten by remorse” (11).
after killing the man, o’flaherty describes the sniper. “he became bitten by remorse” (11).

Explanation:

To determine correct quote embedding, we check if the quote is properly integrated into the sentence. The left option clearly attributes the action (becoming bitten by remorse) to the sniper, making the quote part of the description of the sniper's state. The right option has a wording issue as it says "describes the sniper" then the quote, which is less clear in attribution. The left option correctly embeds the quote by showing the sniper is the one who "became bitten by remorse".

Answer:

The left quote: After killing the man, O’Flaherty describes how the sniper “became bitten by remorse” (11).
