The correct answer is "here, than". In the sentence, the word "here" is used to indicate the location where the party should be held, specifically at a restaurant. The word "than" is used to compare having the party at a restaurant to having it somewhere else.

The sentence "I plan to go to Canada this summer to watch the Calgary Stampede." uses capitalization correctly because it capitalizes the proper nouns "Canada" and "Calgary Stampede."

The correct answer is "Have the paychecks arrived yet?" This sentence is punctuated correctly because it begins with a capital letter, ends with a question mark, and uses proper spacing between words and punctuation marks.

The correct answer is "The bookstore had to move its collection of children’s books." The sentence correctly uses the possessive form of "its" to indicate that the collection of children's books belongs to the bookstore. The use of "it's" in the other options is incorrect, as "it's" is a contraction for "it is" and does not indicate possession. Additionally, the use of the apostrophe in "childrens'" in the other options is also incorrect, as the possessive form of "children" should be "children's."

The correct answer is "When Yoshiro saw the beautiful cabin, by the lake, he was happy too." This sentence is punctuated correctly because it uses commas to set off the phrase "by the lake" as an interrupter. The commas indicate that the phrase is providing additional information about the location of the cabin.
