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 "The Story of a Warrior Queen." When Boadicea saw that all hope was gone, she called her daughters to her.
MAVERICK [17]

Read the excerpt from "The Story of a Warrior Queen."

When Boadicea saw that all hope was gone, she called her daughters to her. "My children," she said sadly, as she took them by the hand and drew them towards her, "my children, it has not pleased the gods of battle to deliver us from the power of the Romans. But there is yet one way of escape." Tears were in her blue eyes as she kissed her daughters. She was no longer a queen of fury but a loving mother.

Which archetype does Boadicea, the queen of the Britons, best represent?

a. the sage

B) the rebel

C) the tragic heroine

d. the villain

Answer:

C. The tragic heroine

Explanation:

An archetype simply means a similar example of something, or what someone embodies.

From this excerpt of "The Story of a Warrior Queen", Queen Boadicea was about to lose a battle and saw that all hope was lost, so in a desperate moment, she brought her daughters to her and told them that there was no way to win this battle because the gods were against them, but she had one last trick up her sleeve.

This is the perfect archetype of the tragic heroine.
