Answer:
Im not sure if you need this answer, but I beleive it takes place in Fredrick, Maryland during the Civil War
Explanation:
In the poem in says "clustered spires of Fredrick Stand"
and "Green-walled by the hills of Maryland"
Later on in the poem it mentions Stonewall Jackson who was a general during the Civil War
The correct answers would be "using contractions, slang terms, and colloquial expressions" and "using expressive punctuation". This way the writer brings the topic closer to the reader by making it "sound more like conversation". If you use "formal rules of grammar", it does not sound like a conversation, and "underlining words for emphasis" only draws your attention to those words. Mentioning your friend in the letter doesn't really affect anything.

surprised by how loud my new baby sister could cry I might have to get ear
plugs.
Explanation: A
run-on sentence is a sentence that conjoins thought with the usage of
conjunctions and punctuation such as a comma or semi-colon. Choice C did not
use any punctuation, besides a period (which doesn't matter in this case) and
did not contain any conjunctions whatsoever.
Choice A is
incorrect because the word "so" was used to bridge two thoughts.
"So" is a conjunction. Also, a comma was used, so we know this isn't
a run-on sentence.
Choice B is
incorrect because the word "and" was used merge two thoughts.
"And" is a conjunction.
Choice D is
incorrect because a semi-colon was used to couple two thoughts into one
sentence.
Thus, the answer is
Choice C.
