The trend is to use fewer capital letters in writing.

• A. Use more capital letters
• B. Use no capital letters at all
• C. Use fewer capital letters
• D. Capitalize every word

Answer: (C)

The main idea is a directional change in writing style: the trend is toward using fewer capital letters. The option that matches this idea communicates a reduction in capitalization, which is exactly what the statement describes. Saying “use fewer capital letters” captures the intended move toward less capitalization without signaling an extreme or a different pattern.

Why the others don’t fit: using more capital letters would describe the opposite trend. suggesting no capital letters at all would be a stronger, absolute shift not implied by “fewer.” Capitalizing every word describes a distinct and inconsistent style, not a move toward reduced capitalization. In many modern styles, writers lean toward sentence case or minimal capitalization, which aligns with using fewer capitals.
