The ellipses is used correctly in option C. I cannot help it...I love her against reason.

The ellipsis is the economist of the language, which enable us to avoid the unnecessary repetition of words. Ellipses are common to both formal and informal English. An ellipsis occurs when a word or a group of words is deliberately left out of a sentence. It can be marked or unmarked.

Ellipsis is often used by fiction writers to create dialogue that resembles the way people really talk.

Answer:

i did six. i cant go any farther

these all are origianal, and i worked really hard.

#1. Horror: As I crept down the hall to the office, I felt a chill roll down my spine as I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. A doll. Not just any doll, THE doll. The doll that has haunted my dreams since I was six. Here is how it all happened.

#2. Comedy: Hi, my name is (Louise/Louis), I'm five foot seven, and I'm a total loser, or at least I was a total loser. that was until my best friend John posed a video of me dancing to my favorite song on Intsa'. Now, I am a total loser, with no friends, and a thousand hits.

#3. Romance: Everyday I wonder when the perfect person for me will come along. I wonder where. and i wonder who. But i had never wondered if it would be my best friend, Aspen Moral. He is the hottest dude in school, I never noticed that. He is totally cool, I never noticed that. And I never noticed that he was really good at making me feel like I have never felt before. Until now.

#4. Mystery: Shawn was my best friend, my sisters boyfriend, and the most popular guy at school. Everyone loved him, everyone knew him. He was such a great guy, never did anything wrong to anyone. So why would anyone kill him. That has been the question on everyone's mind since that night. The police have given up, and we still haven't gotten closure. it is time for me to figure this out, for me, for my sister and for the whole town, i will find the man who killed Shawn.

#5. Science fiction/futuristic: He knows. Someone told him. I haven't told anybody. Ever. So how did the president figure out about the Cyborg Rebelion. We have been planning for five years. We started in 3087. It is now 3092. Five years of work down the drain. Whoosh! A droid rushes past me in the hall of my school.

#6. Dystopian. my worst genre as an author. jesus

The bell. That means another death. Another one who tried to escape. Another life gone down the drain. Lyrica hoped that she didn't know who did it. she had already lost Mirce, here brother, Swan and Dove here twin best friends who were twins. Everytime someone tries to get out, and doesn't succeed, a bell chimes. This has been happening for hundreds of years. millions of people gone. All because of Marissa Lupez.
