Did I use this semi-colon correctly? If not what is a good alternative since its already a fairly wordy sentence? Only real answ

ers please, I don't need suggestions to websites or apps that help with this. Anyways, here is the text:
"Whether that be Jack London illustrating the complete indifference that Nature views our lives with or Kate Chopin giving her audience a glance into the oppressive nature of many relationships at that time; These pieces of literature have given our society the outside perspective that many of us need."

Answer:

Hey I get why ya doubted yourself but the semi colon works.

Explanation:

Let me explain:

So with the two sentences you have if you had used a period the sentences wouldn't have connected as well. And since the first sentence connects to the second by trying to explain how the literature has changed perspective for society it just flows better.

I mean in my opinion the semi colon just works better than a period or comma. It allows a breath to read the second sentence but indicates that the second sentence is what makes the first sentence work.

r-ruslan [8.4K]
The correct option is C.
From the sentence given above, it can be inferred that Sheralyn did not really like the idea that Dominic has a new sport car and she is probably feeling jealous of Dominic because of his car. When Dominic left the parking lot, Sheralyn was happy that people will no longer notice that Dominic has a new sport car.
So, Sheralyn was uttering the statement given in the question in order to express her strong feelings of jealousy but she said it in such a way that mask her true feelings.

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

b. Cover a single topic.

Explanation:

In any academic writing, or in general any form of writing, it is necessary to make sure that the topical sentence is part of the description of the whole passage. It should and must be the central theme of the work, and must be referred to whenever necessary.

A paragraph can be the distinct and particular section of the work that may or may not discuss the main theme of the whole work. But it is necessary to make sure that a paragraph concentrates on a single topic and not talk of multiple issues/ topics in a single paragraph. Rather, if one point is made in a particular paragraph and another point taken in another paragraph, it will make it easier and more understandable for the readers to get to know the main point of the whole work/ paper.
