Identify whether each quotation is formatted correctly,
and, if not, how it needs to be improved.
(1) In "The Gettysburg Address," Abraham Lincoln says,
"the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here,
have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or
detract." He believes that the world has taken notice of
the battle but that the war is far from over. (2) He urges
that it is "for us to be here dedicated to the great task
remaining ... that this nation..." He hopes that others
will continue to fight for the freedom of all men. (3)
Finally, he is determined to make sure that, "these dead
shall not have died in vain."

Answer:

Capitalization, use of ellipsis, and comma are the correct answer.

Explanation:

In the first quotation, capitalization is the mistake because the quote expresses a complete sentence, so the first letter must be a capital, as in "The brave men..."

In the second one, the ellipsis is incorrect. An ellipsis consists in an omission indicated with a set of three dots (...) and it expresses a complete idea. In this case, the last idea is incomplete and makes its understanding difficult.

In the third one, the comma after finally is not necessary because the introduction phrase is short and it doesn't affect its understanding.
