Answer : My sister and I love to cook; we spend hours cooking together.

Among the choices presented above, this sentence shows a semi-colon being used properly in connecting two independent clauses. A semi-colon is a punctuation mark that helps in connecting two independent clauses that have closely related ideas. In the sentence above, the two independent clauses are “ My sister and I love to cook” while the other one is “We spend hours cooking together”. These clauses can both stand on their own and have related ideas.

In the book The breadwinner, what is a good argument for the thesis that children in Kabul are hardworking?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

A good argument that supports this thesis is that Parvana makes many sacrifices to be able to support her family through work, even if it damages her dreams and characteristics.

Explanation:

"The breadwinner" was written by Deborah Ellis and addresses the difficult lives of families living under the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. In this book we got to know Parvana, an 11-year-old girl who, after her brother's death and her father's arrest, had to disguise herself as a boy and work, in the most diverse ways possible, in order to support her family. Parvana makes a lot of sacrifices to work, in addition to facing the danger of being discovered by the Taliban, she must leave her dreams of studying, of going to Paris and has to, even, renounce her vanity.

What is the best way to emphasize a point when giving a speech?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

There’s no one single best way to make a point. The real question is which is the best way to do it in this or that situation. For instance, you might do best with speaking a bit louder on the part you want to emphasize. So compared to what’s around it, the louder part will stand out, thus providing emphasis. Then again, a gesture might be your best approach. Repeating the point to make sure everybody got it and stress it’s importance is one more technique. Using a powerful example to illustrate your point and/or its importance or effectiveness is another strategy.
