Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. In dialogue writing, the comma or period that ends the quoted text goes inside the closing quotation marks. Also, when a dialogue tag (like "Kira said") interrupts a quoted sentence, the first word after the tag should not be capitalized unless it's a proper noun or the start of a new sentence.
    • For the first - set of options, the correct form should have the punctuation inside the quotes and proper capitalization. The correct one among them is: "That wasn't part of the plan," Kira said, her voice sharp, "and you know it." The first "and" should not be capitalized as it's part of the same sentence interrupted by the dialogue tag.
  2. For the second - set of options, the correct one is: "This is exactly how horror movies start," Nina muttered under her breath. The period at the end of the quote goes inside the closing quotation marks.
  3. For the third - set of options, the correct one is: Yara spun the ring on her finger. "I kept it... just in case." Here, the action is described first, and then the dialogue starts. The dialogue should be in quotes and the ellipsis is used correctly to show a trailing - off of thought.

Answer:

  1. "That wasn't part of the plan," Kira said, her voice sharp, "and you know it."
  2. "This is exactly how horror movies start," Nina muttered under her breath.
  3. Yara spun the ring on her finger. "I kept it... just in case."
