Answer to Question 1

FALSE
The words north, south, east, and west are capitalized whenever they refer to specific
sections of the country and when they are part of proper names. They are not capitalized
when they refer merely to direction.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
Single quotation marks are used for words quoted within other quoted material. Quotation
marks serve primarily to tell the reader the exact words written or spoken by someone, but
they also have other important uses.
