Which statement about excerpts is true. 1 an excerpt should always be enclosed in quotation marks. 2 an excerpt does not need to be cited. 3 an excerpt should start on a new line. 4 an excerpt is not a quotation

Hello!

An excerpt is a section of a book, play, essay, etc. Because it comes directly from a piece of writing, it should always be enclosed in quotation marks.

An excerpt should always be cited as well, but it does not need to start on a new line. 

I hope this helps answer your question! Have a great day!
