❤️Hello!❤️The correct answer is C. Certain sound devices - for example, alliteration can be used to imitate natural sounds

Explanation:

Dashes are punctuation marks, that are mainly use to replace  others such as colon (:), comma (;), semicolon (;) or parentheses (), in this cases a dash is being used to replace a  semicolon (;), this means it is used to separate two ideas that are related and to introduce the term "for example" this means there is a pause between these ideas, but both are still connected, In this way, according to grammar a semicolon (;) should be used before words such as however, that is, for example to state a pause and introduce a new sentence, considering dashes are used to replace multiple punctuation marks including semicolons (;), it is correct to use a dash before "for example, alliteration can be used to imitate natural sounds" as it states a pause and the introduction of the linking word "for example".Hope this helps ↪️Autumn↩️

NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

just took this test ! the previous answer was excellent, though i'd still like to contribute by seconding from a directly experienced point of view.

1. to imply the main idea of the article

it is clear that though we have the ability to spark a flame with ease, in previous times this was far more difficult to do. it adds to the main idea discussing the importance of matches today.

2. it shows the need for matches

this answer emulates the last one, with a similar idea of how crucial matches are to us. we should be incredibly grateful to have access to an instrument that can produce such a resilient flame.

3. thesaraus

thesarauses are used to find synonyms and antonyms of words, so similar words and opposite words. this student is searching for a word like confusion. he can find confusion in the theasaraus and use the resource to search for a better word.
