Semicolons are correctly and effectively used when connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence.

The semicolon (;) is a punctuation mark that separates major sentence elements. A semicolon can be used between two closely related independent clauses, provided they are not already connected by a coordinating conjunction.

The semi colon is employed to connect similar ideas that are independently placed in sentences. If you join the ideas with a semi colon, you don't have to use conjunctions.

1. Why do Odysseus's men refrain at first from
amid [387]

Answer:

At first, Odysseus and his men refrain from eating the cattle because they all swore an oath not to eat any cattle. The situation changed when they were on the island because they were starving and trapped there for a month. Don't forget that it was Eurylochus who convinced the men to eat the Cattle of the Sun: "it's better to die at sea from the wrath of the gods, he said than to die of hunger."

I hope that helps! If you need more contextual evidence, it should be in the book.
