Answer:

Your answer would be A.

Explanation:

The revision that corrects the run-on sentence is sentence A. A run-on sentence occurs when two independent clauses are not joined correctly.  There are two types of run-on sentences: fused sentences and comma splices. The first ones occur when two independent clauses run together with no marks of punctuation or coordinating conjuctions to separate them, while the second ones occur when two independent clauses are joined only by a comma. The sentence above is therefore a comma splice.

You should use a semicolon to link in a single sentence two independent clauses that are closely related in thought. What is more, when you use a semicolon to bring together two ideas in a sentence, you are giving them equal rank or position. All in all, that is why A is the right choice.

4. "And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country" Yes. The contrast is between what the country can do and what the citizens could do.

Read the excerpt from The Diary of a Young Girl.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Longing

Explanation:

From what the author writes, "I can't take that at all" and "I miss her every minute of the day", we know that the answer is not optimism, joy, or confusion.

Optimism is a positive emotion, so this answer is cancelled out by "my eyes fill with tears".

Longing means to miss someone/something, and we know that this is the answer when the author writes "I keep dreaming she'll come back to us"

Joy is also a positive emotion, so we can cancel this out for the same reason as optimism.

Confusion is not the answer as the author goes into depth about her sadness towards Moortje, so we can cancel this one out too.

Please rate 5 stars and /or mark brainliest if I helped, thanks for reading!
