Read the excerpt from a website article. [1] In 1963, only 417 nesting pairs of bald eagles remained in the United States. [2] Over 40 years later in 2007, figures placed the number of
nesting eagle pairs at close to 9,789. [3] The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service then removed the national bird from the federal list of endangered
species. [4] The bald eagle's amazing recovery from near extinction signaled that it no longer required protection. (5) To achieve this population
rebound, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service worked closely with state agencies and countless supportive landowners, both pricate and public
[6] Wildlife biologists claim that two crucial elements contributed to the success: the banning of pesticide DOT and habitat protection to ensure vital
feeding roosting, and breeding. [7] If bald eagles need protection in the future, they can again be placed on the endangered list. (8) Individual states
can also pass laws to protect them.
Monique is writing a report about the history of the bald eagle in the United States. She wants to quote the website article but plans to leave
out sentences 4 through 6.
How should Monique indicate there is missing text in her quote?
1. She should use brackets in place of the missing text.
O 2. She should use an ellipsis in place of the missing text.
O 3. She should note the missing text in a bibliography at the end of the report
4. She should include the missing text in a footnote at the bottom of the page.

Monique should indicate there is a missing text in her quote in the following manner:

2. She should use an ellipsis in place of the missing text.

Explanation:

It is common for a passage to have more information than what we wish to quote. In case you decide to omit any part of the original text in the quote, the right way to do it is by adding ellipsis in the place of the omitted words or sentences. There is no need to add brackets or to quote the missing part somewhere else in the article.

In Monique's case, since she wants to leave out sentences 4 through 6, this is what it would look like:

[1] In 1963, only 417 nesting pairs of bald eagles remained in the United States. [2] Over 40 years later in 2007, figures placed the number of  nesting eagle pairs at close to 9,789. [3] The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service then removed the national bird from the federal list of endangered  species. . . . [7] If bald eagles need protection in the future, they can again be placed on the endangered list. (8) Individual states can also pass laws to protect them.

2. She should use an ellipsis in place of the missing text.

Explanation:

The other person who answered has a much more detailed explanation. Even if you just want the answer. I still think you should read what the other answerer wrote. Very interesting explanation.
