I should like to see the time come when women shall help to make the laws. I should like to see that whiplash, the ballot, in the hands of women.

Which quotation correctly uses an ellipsis to shorten Twain's words without changing their meaning?

Respuesta :

The correct quote is "I should like to see the time come when women shall help to make the laws. I should like to see . . . the ballot, in the hands of women."

How to choose the correct quotation?

According to the instructions, we are supposed to choose the quotation that uses ellipsis correctly in order to shorten Twain's words. However, we must not change their meaning.

That is why option B is the best answer. It removes only the part of the passage that is less important, whose removal does not change what Twain originally means to say.

Therefore, by removing only "that whiplash," there is no change in Twain's words that would alter their meaning. Option B is the correct answer.
