Hi!

When we have a quote, we often times use a colon to separate our text from the quote's text.

With this in mind, the best answer choice here is C.

Hopefully, this helps!

Answer:

The sentence that is punctuated correctly is sentence C.

Explanation:

When you use a complete sentence to introduce a quotation, you need a colon after the sentence. If you used a comma, you would create a comma splice. In the sentence above, the sentence introduces the quotation, the words actually said by the speaker's grandmother. That is why the words are inside quotation marks.

The quotation is not a question, so that leaves out option D. In B, the colon is wrongly placed. Finally, the semicolon in A would create a similar error as with the comma. Taking all this into account, it can be said that C is the right choice.

The meaning behind that simile is that ‘they’ are getting tons of gold like they were corn grains which if you’ve seen them, there’s a lot in just one corn. So basically those people were getting a lot of gold.

Why does Antigone go willingly into the cave where she will die?
Vlada [557]
The correct answer is A. She wants to please the gods by continuing to obey them.

She is resigned to her fate, and she believes that god's laws are above the laws of men, which is why she obeys the gods.
