That's correct, it's option D) Both A and B.

Option C looks incorrect due to the misuse of punctuation. Since the conjunction "and" was added, there is no reason to use a semicolon before it in this situation.

Option A uses correct punctuation, comma, before the conjunction "and". Let's keep it in mind that it is a conjunction's role to connect two sentences in order to form a compound one.

Option B is also correct because, even though it does not use a conjunction to connect the sentences, it uses the semicolon to indicate the sentences are related, that their ideas are connected.

IceJOKER [234]

There is a difference between both, while old money has had their money for generations they also have an upper hand. They might have a bit more of insight in they’re buisness and know the ins and outs better than new money, new money is just begining to see and understand the do’s and don’ts.

Which of the following lines creates a natural pause by using an em dash correctly?
Ulleksa [173]
Hey there!

Em dashes are meant to indicate brief pauses within a running sentence. If you were to include one within a quote, it would go wherever a person pauses for an extended period of time (at least longer than the person would normally take to start their next word).

In your first answer choice, the reader is put under the impression that the em dashes used between "I", "uh", and "am" are pauses, as if Carla was at a brief loss for words. Since she likely paused and said "uh" while thinking of the next thing to say, this is the correct use of the em dash. 

In your second answer choice, an em dash wouldn't be appropriate. It's not likely that Bianca would stop her sentence midway, pause, then tell Nawal to duck before the frisbee would hit his head. She likely stopped her sentence and immediately told him to duck instead. 

In your third answer, this sentence doesn't even require a dash anywhere. There isn't a need for a pause between "shrieked" and "Laura".

In your fourth answer, this is also an incorrect use of an em dash. There wouldn't be a dash before "exclaimed" in this sentence.

Your answer will be your first option. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
