yan [13]

The correct answer to what effect has the author created by joining her reactions with a semicolon instead of two separate sentences is A. to emphasize the quickness of her thoughts and feelings.

The semicolon usually indicates <em>only a pause, instead of a break, like an effect usually caused by a period</em>, that indicates the end of a sentence. The pause created by the semicolon shows that<em> there is a connection between what was said before it and after it.</em> In this case, Sylvia's reaction, <em>her heart's wild beat, is directly connected to her thoughts that came right after it.</em> Therefore, her <em>thoughts come very fast right after her heartbeat</em>, and that effect is caused by the use of the semicolon, that creates only a small pause. Thus, the effect that the author has created by joining her reactions with a semicolon was A. to emphasize the quickness of her thoughts and feelings.

The correct answer couldn't be<em> B. to demonstrate her love of nature</em>, because there is n<em>o indication of her love of nature in this passage, only of her feelings and thoughts</em> as she observed the heron mentioned. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be B. to demonstrate her love of nature.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>C. to show how confused she is about what the stranger is asking</em> because there was <em>no sign of Sylvia being confused</em>, on the contrary,<em> she had a fast emotional response to the stranger's question and the semicolon reveals her feelings and thoughts altogether.</em> Hence, the correct answer couldn't be C. to show how confused she is about what the stranger is asking.

The correct answer couldn't be <em>D. to cause the reader to wonder what her reaction will be</em> because<em> her reaction is expressed </em>in this passage, as the <em>author describes her feelings and thoughts.</em> The reader doesn't have to wonder but has <em>her reactions there explicit.</em> So, the correct answer couldn't be D. to cause the reader to wonder what her reaction will be.
