Which sentence is punctuated correctly?

English
1 answer:
TEA [102]3 years ago
6 0

Hello!

Option C is punctuated correctly.

The answer is not A, because the sentence contains no punctuation, therefore making it a run-on.

The answer also is not B, because a comma does not connect the sentence. The sections "Customer service must be a priority of all employees" and "ignoring our customer needs will surely put us out of business" are independent thoughts that cannot be connected only with a comma.

C is the correct answer because a semicolon connects two independent thoughts and shows how they are related without making the second section seem irrelevant.

I hope this helps you! Have a lovely day!

Summarize What secret plan do Pyramus and Thisbe make?
Vanyuwa [196]
Pyramus and Thisbe are star-crossed lovers, and many believe they provided the inspiration for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Both couples had sad fates. Pyramus and Thisbe were next door neighbors, but sadly their families hated one another. Because they lived next door, their homes shared a wall. In this wall was a tiny crack that allowed the two lovers to communicate. Madly in love, the two devised a plan: they would sneak out in the middle of the night and run off together. The plan was to meet by a mulberry tree and elope. Thisbe gets there first, but sees a lioness all bloody from hunting. She runs off, accidentally leaving a piece of her clothing behind. The lioness sniffs it and gets blood on it. As a result, when Pyramus arrives, he believes Thisbe has been killed. In despair, he kills himself. Thisbe later returns to find Pyramus dead, and she decides to join him by killing herself. The two lovers met a sad end, all because their families hated each other so much.

Why would it have been a bad idea to buy a color TV when they first were released?
Bezzdna [24]
It might have been a bad idea because they weren't yet fully tested, so no one was sure if they were safe or reliable. It's like how today, many people are reluctant to buy virtual reality machines: because it a new technology that hasn't been dully developed yet.<span />
