Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: A regular verb can be conjugated in a standard way, such as talk: I talk. He talks. They talk. She talked yesterday. The verb do is irregular because it doesn't follow a regular verb pattern: I do. He does. They do. She did yesterday. As you can see, both the present and past have unusual, or irregular, formations.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) President is capitalized because it is a title of a person. Hilda Bruckner is capitalized because it is a proper noun, the name of a person. The Department of Business is capitalized because it identifies an official organization. Gable University is capitalized because it is a proper noun and the name of an institution. Insurance is neither a proper noun nor the name of something. It is an ordinary adjective, so it should not be capitalized.
