The correct sentence is option two:

There have been many accidents during airshows; for example, last year the wind toppled a tent and equipment on top of bystanders.

The semicolon is a punctuation mark which indicates a pause, usually between two clauses that are not joined by a coordinating conjunction. Semicolons can also replace commas to separate elements in a list that already includes commas.

In the example sentence, the semicolon separates two clauses. Besides, a comma follows the introductory phrase "for example" because it introduces a clause.

For each sentence, cross out any prepositional phrases. Then underline the subject once and the verb twice. Remember to include
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer and Explanation:

A prepositional phrase is constituted by a preposition and its object (complement). We can easily find it in the sentence by finding the preposition.

Now, I know we are supposed to cross the prepositional phrases out as our first step, but since that format is not supported here, I will italicize them. Please, consider them as having been crossed out:

1. Gasoline <em>from the broken fuel line </em>dripped onto the floor of the garage.

2. Elephants often form lifelong bonds <em>with members of their herd</em>.

The next step is to find and underline the subject once. Remember, subjects are the topic of the sentence. Let's do this:

1. <u>Gasoline</u> dripped onto the floor of the garage.

2. <u>Elephants</u> often form lifelong bonds.

Finally, we must underline the verbs twice. Again, that format is not supported here, so I will highlight the verbs:

1. <u>Gasoline</u> dripped onto the floor of the garage.

2. <u>Elephants</u> often form lifelong bonds.
