Which sentence demonstrates correct use of the semicolon?

English
1 answer:
Ket [755]3 years ago

The correct answer is - Sara suddenly became very ill; therefore, she went to see her doctor.
A semicolon is used to separate two sentences, two separate but also connected thoughts. It should come naturally as a pause within a sentence, which is why the first three options are incorrect as they break up the sentence in grammatically incorrect locations.

Which themes are found within Jack London’s ""To Build a Fire""? Check all that apply. Belief in oneself is all that is needed t
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

I believe three options should be checked:

B) Nature is a powerful force and should be given great respect.

C) Humans can learn a great deal from animals around them.

D) Wisdom is gained by listening to those who have gone ahead.

Explanation:

"To Build a Fire" is a short story by Jack London. The main character unfortunately dies from the harsh cold in the Yukon territory in Canada. <u>The first </u><u>theme</u><u> comes from his suffering and death: </u><u>nature is more powerful than men, and it should be respected. The man in the story acts arrogantly when he thinks his skills and knowledge are enough to keep him alive</u><u>. The second theme is that </u><u>humans can learn from animals. The man is accompanied by a dog</u><u> and, since the narrator reveals the thoughts of the animal, readers can see the dog is actually wiser. </u><u>The dog knows when they should stop and make fire. He also knows that, if the man fails to save the both of them, he (the dog) must dig a hole in the snow to survive.</u><u> Finally, the third theme is that </u><u>wisdom can be gained by listening to those who are more experienced. The main character was advised by an old man in Sulphur Creek to not go out without a companion. His arrogance prevented him from listening but, while suffering, he remembers those words and realizes their value.</u>

Why do authors use tension in a story
Neko [114]
Authors use tension so that it creates for excitement and is more interesting for the reader/audience. By telling the story backwards or by telling the story in bits and pieces to finally join all the pieces and show you a masterpiece( the whole picture). By heightening the emotions of the characters and the situations. An example of dramatic irony is when the author uses Oedipus not knowing he was the killer and making a promise that he shall kill the person who killed his <span>father. </span>
