Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: To express a date of June 1966 you don't need to place a comma between the month and the year.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Punctuation should be placed inside of the quotation marks in most cases, for example: It became clear to me that money doesn't grow on trees. The punctuation goes outside of quotation marks only in specific situations, as when the sentence is a question but the quotation is not a question: Why are people always telling me to take it easy?
