This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

A student noted the following information that will be included in the works cited page for a magazine.

Author: Raymond MaroniTitle of Article: "Overtime Win on the Ice" Magazine Title: Sporting TimesIssue Number: LXIVDate of Publication: November 1, 2001

A. the page numbers

B. the date the article was read

C. the city of publication

D. the magazine editor

What additional information is needed to cite this source in MLA format?

The correct answer is A. The page numbers.

Explanation

The MLA style is a style format for writing articles and citing sources within the liberal arts and humanities. Specifically, the latest edition of this format establishes the mode of citing periodicals such as a magazine as follows:

Lastname name. "Article title". Magazine title. Day month (abbreviated) year:

pages. Publication medium (print).

According to the above, the citation form used by the student in the example is correct, but it lacks a piece of information, which is the number of pages. So the correct answer is A.
