The sentence that uses dashes correctly is A) I'd love to stay and talk, but - yikes! I'm really late now.
Since you introduced an exclamation <em>yikes, </em>you also need to separate it from the rest of the sentence using a dash.

A. <span><span>I'd love to stay and talk, but—yikes! I'm really late now.
</span>This is the correct answer. The dash here is used properly because it shows the break in thought, and it changes the tone of the speaker. That is one use of dashes.
<span>
B. </span></span><span>Today we studied a poem, did an experiment, and multiplied fractions. (The sentence doesn't need the dash.)
C. </span><span>The coat—one of the most colorful that I've seen--seemed to be made of string. (It needs another dash after seen.)
</span>D. <span>There on the stage was my sister! (Does not need the dash.)</span><span>

</span>

Answer:

persuade listeners to embrace democratic freedoms.

Explanation:

President Ronald Wilson Reagan, born on the 6th of February, 1911 and died on the 5th of June, 2004. He was the 40th president of the United States of America; served between 1981-1989.

John Hinckley Jr. attempted to assassinate President Reagan on the 30th of March, 1981 in Washington DC but fortunately the president escaped sustaining only a gunshot wound.

In 1988, President Ronald Reagan visited the Soviet Union, where he delivered a motivational speech on democracy and individual rights to the students of Moscow state university.

President Reagan posited that, no country in the world can survive, thrive, grow and develop without allowing some form of democratic freedom such as freedom of expression, freedom of speech, freedom of information, freedom of religion, freedom of thought etc.

Hence, one purpose of President Reagan's address at Moscow state university was to persuade listeners to embrace democratic freedoms because he is considered to be an anti-communist.
