Cape Cod is a proper noun, and both words should be capitalized is right.

Sentence correction
Sentence no 5: We took a tent, a cooler, and a sleeping bag.
This bothered me and my teacher. Sentence itself is correct unless we consider serial comma aka oxford comma. In US it is ok but in British English it is discouraged and the serial comma is only permissible for clarity sake. So we both are wondering about the style guide of CSS. Has anyone any info over it? Good luck everyone who appeared in 2016. Overall papers are quite well-balanced if we overlook few things.

Because, I believe that sentence has irregular parallelism.I.e. each object is in simple form without any gerud;while,that of sleeping is creating non-parallelism. So my suggested correction is We took a tent, a cooler, and a bag. Sentence structure (Subject+intense verb+ object) Here all objects must be in same condition not object1=object2=object 3 While in case of sleeping bag,state of equilibrium is disturbed. P.S.That's my own recommendation,you may have your own. |

Here:
"most British style guides discourage use of the serial comma unless the items in the series would be confusing without it." http://grammar.about.com/od/rs/g/serialcommaterm.htm http://www.grammarly.com/handbook/pu.../oxford-comma/ http://grammar.wikia.com/wiki/Oxford_comma What you are suggesting is something completely different. I'll forward his to my teacher but the thing is sleeping bag is a specific type of bag. Replacing it with just a bag won't be a plausible solution because then it can be any bag. When should we use oxford comma, http://www.grammarly.com/blog/2015/w...much-about-it/ This explains when it will be necessary to absolutely use oxford comma. See this is why we are fretting over style guide. It can be quite confusing.

Oh the main question, the style guide. What should I tell my teacher about that, any idea?
