writingWhich choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?
A
settings
B
arenas
C
venues
D
venue
Correct Answer: D
Choice D is the best answer. The sentence describes a single specific place ("an aircraft carrier"), so the singular noun "venue" is required.
Choice A is incorrect because "settings" is plural. Choice B is incorrect because "arenas" is plural. Choice C is incorrect because "venues" is plural.
