Respuesta :
The statement that uses the correct MLA in-text citation is B: Lenore Westerberg, author of the book Monkey in the Middle, says that young children who participate in sports are more likely to understand the value of teamwork (25).
The name of the author is already included in the quoatation, so it is not necessary to repeat it again as in D. A is vague because the name of the author is not mentioned at all. What does the number 25 referred to then ? Finally, in C the page number is not included.
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
Modern Language Association (or MLA) in-text citation is the format style used in literary works or any humanities studies to cite the sources referred for the study.
The correct format for citing any source is to mention page no(s) in parentheses, mention the name of the author of whose work you are paraphrasing. The name of the author can appear either in the sentence, if not then it should be compulsorily mentioned in parentheses with page no(s).
Option A and C are incorrect since in the first one, author's name is not cited, and in the later, page no(s) is missing. In Option D, author's name is mentioned both in the sentence and in parentheses, so, making it incorrect use of MLA citation.
Hence, The correct MLA in-text citation is used in option B.
