Yes, you are correct! The proper noun in the options provided is "Conchita Alonso" (option b). A proper noun is a specific name given to a particular person, place, or thing. In this case, Conchita Alonso is a specific person's name, which qualifies as a proper noun.
To determine the correct answer, you need to understand the concept of proper nouns and apply it to the options provided. In this case, "newspaper" (option a), "River" (option c), and "skyscraper" (option d) are common nouns as they do not refer to any specific person, place, or thing. However, "Conchita Alonso" is a person's name, which makes it a proper noun.
