:) create an in-text citation for the following information. be careful! remember, your spacing and punctuation must be exact.(note: if the program will not allow you to use italics or underlining, you may ignore this formatting.)1) page 126 of the book, the african american and the settling of the west by sarah nichols and marie hernandez, edited by aaron wilds2) page 56 of world magazine, an article titled, "the christian protesters," published on july 23, 2009below are in-text citations for page 35 of c. s. lewis's the lion witch and the wardrobe, illustrated by pauline bynes and published in 1969. select the in-text citation that is completely correct.3: a)  (bynes and lewis 35)b)  (lewis, 35)c)  (the lion 35)d)  (lewis 35)4: a)  (new international version, john 6: 14-15)b)  (niv john 6.14-15)c)  (new international version, john 6.14-15)d)  (john 6.14-15, new international version)

1. (nichols and hernandez 126)

the in-text citation should include the author's last names, not the editor. this is because the authors are first in the works cited page entry. an in-text citation should be used as an indicator of which source on your works cited page you're referring to. the page number must be included so that the reader can easily find the information you are referencing if he/she chooses to look back at the source. a comma between the author and page number is unnecessary as it is well-known that a person's name is not a number, and this number refers to a page in the source text.

2. ("the christian protesters" 56)

when the author's name is unknown, it is acceptable to use the title of a work. this is the first entry for a source on the works cited page when the source does not have a known author. a comma between the title and the page number is not needed here, especially because the punctuation of the title separates it from the page number.

3. (lewis 35)

there is only one author of this source, so only one last name must be listed. see the explanation for number 1 for further info.

4. (new international version, john 6.14-15)

verses are punctuated with a period and hyphen, not a colon. since there is no author, the name of the source should come first.

closer examination, however, finds the mcdonald's kind of job highly uneducational in several ways. far from providing opportunities for entrepreneurship (the lemonade stand) or self- discipline, self-supervision, and self-scheduling (the paper route), most teen jobs these days are highly structured — what social scientists call “highly routinized.”  

true, you still have to have the gumption to get yourself over to the hamburger stand, but once you don the prescribed uniform, your task is spelled out in minute detail.
