The sentence that uses a colon correctly is:

  • Rose and her friends played: Bridge, Canasta, Poker, and Rummy

<h3>What is the correct use of the colon?</h3>

When writers wish to introduce a list, a proper symbol they can use is the colon. In the sentence above, the purpose of the colon can be seen clearly. Here we can see a list of the names of four kinds of games Rose and her friends engaged in.

A reader can thus see the names of the games and identify them with ease. There are other uses of the colon. The colon can be used in headlines to differentiate different parts of the sentence.

The colon can also be used in dialogues between two or more persons. Another use of the colon is that of emphasizing the main point.

For the text provided above, option A accurately describes a function of the colon.

blondinia [14]
The answer is:- To show how slavery can destroy the deepest of human bonds.

Explanation— Frederick Douglas’ mother was not allowed to see him due to the laws given to them by their masters. He could only see her at night, because this was when she would sneak out to lie with at night. The practice of separating a mother and child by the slave master was a custom that was intended to break the natural bond of affection between mother and child.


I hope this helps.

[animal farm help] (8 pt)
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
The best answer here is A. If we refer to the text itself, we can see why. As the story progresses, the pigs start to think of themselves as superior to the other animals for one reason or another. In fact, they start to take on many of the characteristics of the humans they earlier touted as being evil and the reason for all their problems.

While the other animals might not have totally believed them, they went along with it because the society itself was equal. Each animal had its job to keep things running. However, because the pigs think themselves superior, they decide they should be the ones to rule and stop working. They also come up with a variety of rules that are supposed to exert their superiority over the other animals. However, at this point, there isn't much the other animals can do except grin and bear it and hope that it gets better.
