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:
A
Explanation:
C usually doesn't help with anything aside from implying how fast the plot is progressing, or a sudden break/ change from the initial storyline, that kind of thing.
B. The surface level topic is always very apparent, it's the underlying topic that requires knowing what's the tone of the text and some other factors to know.
D. The quantity of adjectives used usually doesn't matter as much as the quality of the adjectives used.
So A is the answer I deducted.
fetching water from the well to the woman's house, chopping firewood for conventional cooking purposes, pounding rice grains, and many others.

No, inchworm is not an affix
[] Reasoning \ Evidence []
An affix is a word or part that is added onto another word. Once that second part is added onto the original word, the original words meaning has changed. Here are two types of affixes: Prefix, suffix.
A pre fix, as you can guess by the word pre, goes before the main word. For example, for the word impossible, the word "im is the prefix. The original word is possible. Once you add the prefix im, the word possible changes to impossible. The meaning of the original word has now changed.
A suffix is a word that is added to the end of an original word. The word "ed" is a suffix. Once you add "ed" to a word like "passed", the word pass has been changed and given a new meaning.
Those are examples of affixes. The word inchworm is not an affix.
