Hello. You did not enter the necessary phrases to answer your question. So I put up example sentences and showed when parentheses or colon should be used.

Answer:

  • I knew that the butterfly would be attracted as soon as it smelled the perfume it gave off from the flowers of the tree (cherry).
  • When we went to the market (me, my brother and my cousin) we didn't find the cookies anymore.
  • Mary said, "When I grow up I want to be just like you."
  • The boys' names were: Pedro, Jose, Fernando and Carlos.

Explanation:

The parentheses "()" can be used in a sentence when it is necessary to add information about some words. This information is placed in parentheses to indicate that they should not have any influence on the text, and can even be removed from the text. It is important that the parentheses are placed immediately after the term that will receive additional information as in the sentences:

  • I knew that the butterfly would be attracted as soon as it smelled the perfume it gave off from the flowers of the tree (cherry).
  • When we went to the market (me, my brother and my cousin) we didn't find the cookies anymore.

The colon ":" should be used in a sentence when a quote, list, numbering, clarification or abstract is added to the text. Examples of this are:

  • I knew that the butterfly would be attracted as soon as it smelled the perfume it gave off from the flowers of the tree (cherry).
  • When we went to the market (me, my brother and my cousin) we didn't find the cookies anymore.
  • Mary said, "When I grow up I want to be just like you."
  • The boys' names were: Pedro, Jose, Fernando and Carlos.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Since her uncle enjoyed her company, she didn't worry about what society might think.

Answer: Option 2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The author in the passage talks about her attachment to her uncle whose name of James Adam because of the walk that she used to do with her father on almost every Sunday.

But this attachment of the author with her uncle might lead to some of the trouble some questions like she would be mistaken as her uncle's daughter and not her father's daughter. She also thought that this closeness and attachment would lead the society to identify her as an ugly duckling with her imposing parent but she did not care about what the society thought about all this.
