It’s the thesis soo it’s A
Mount Doom is a fiction, My journey to Pompeii is a non-fiction.
Explanation:
- Mount Doom is a fictional volcano in J.R.R. Tolkien's book. The book talks about the damage caused by the volcano and the struggle in a caravan. In the end the evil falls into the fire and destroyed.
- This book talks about Pompeii, the famous city destroyed by a volcano in 79 CE. Mount Vesuvius, erupted and destroyed the whole city.
- The land was covered with ashes and volcanic debris. The city was buried under the ashes and later in the 16th century, it was rediscovered.
The correct answer is actually D), not A.
Although these are independent clauses indeed, the punctuation in A,B, and C is not correct.
Before 'however' there needs to be a semicolon (;). And after however, you have to put a comma. Therefore D is the correct answer.
After a comma there needs to be a pause in reading. Does A sound correct to you if you make a pause before 'however' and not after it? Of course not.
