Since there are no choices, the way I would correct this sentence would be:

You shouldn't pat a strange dog; sometimes they're not friendly.

I would replace the comma with a semi colon to make more sense.

The correct answer would be:

You shouldn't pat a strange dog; sometimes they're not friendly.

The semicolon or semi-colon is a punctuation mark used in the following three cases:

<u><em>In lists that have internal commas</em></u>, to make it easier to read. For example y favorite store is having a huge sale; you can buy pants, shirts, and shoes for half price.

<u><em>Between two independent clauses</em></u>, particularly with clauses that are complex,  have commas and don't have a coordinating conjunction. For example, You shouldn't pat a strange dog; sometimes they're not friendly.

<u><em>When a comma replaces a full stop in a quotation.</em></u> For example, "Is this your child?" he asked; "I found him outside".

Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved.
Alona [7]

Answer:

Female factory workers had to work long hours, sometimes up to eighty hours a week.

Explanation:

Joan Dash provided a poignant and eye-opening historical account of the women's factory strike of 1909 in "We Shall Not Be Moved." This provides an insight into what the condition was like for women and also how the Women's Trade Union League came to be.

In the given passage from the text, the narrator reveals how the women's demand was simple: <em>"a fifty-two-hour week with extra pay for overtime, an end to the fines and petty tyrannies, and a living wage." </em>And in order to understand what the basis of the demands were, we have to know the situation of workers, especially female workers during the early 1990s. And the fact that <u>women workers were expected to work for long hours, at times even up to eighty hours a week</u> was too much for any living being to endure.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
