Solution

Answer

The answer is d. Aunt Gloria asked, "Is

Explanation

Option a: aunt Gloria asked, "is

This option is incorrect because "Aunt" is a title and should be capitalized. Additionally, the first word in the quoted sentence should be capitalized.

Option b: Aunt Gloria asked, "is

This option is incorrect because, while "Aunt" is correctly capitalized, the first word in the quoted sentence should also be capitalized.

Option c: aunt Gloria Asked, "is

This option is incorrect because "Aunt" should be capitalized, and "Asked" should not be capitalized as it is not the beginning of a sentence.

Option d: Aunt Gloria asked, "Is

This option is correct because "Aunt" is a title and is correctly capitalized, and the first word in the quoted sentence, "Is," is also correctly capitalized.
