You did this correctly in your other posts. Use all CAPS for the stressed syllables, and leave the unstressed syllables as lower case.

Post what you think about b, c, and d, and we will check them for you.

b ) in the LIGHT of the aBOVE STATEment, i shall absTAIN from VOTing

c ) good MORNing. how can i HELP you ?
