I just did an assignment, and you didn’t list any sentences so I’m going to assume that these are what you needed to solve.

1. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The wind knocked over a ladder; the ladder then broke a window.

2. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

.Lorenzo is colorblind; as a result, his wife lays out his clothes every morning.

3. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The engine is cold; therefore, you can add more water to the radiator.

4. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The air is very stale in the library; moreover, the lighting is poor.

5. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. Larry is not a good babysitter; he treats his little brother like an insect.

6. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The cat slept on the windowsill; she was wrapped in warm sunlight.

7. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. we decided to leave the restaurant; the food was too expensive.

8. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The raisin cookies are delicious; another less, I can’t eat another one.

9. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The weatherman predicted a sunny day; however it is Cold and cloudy.

10. Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly.

. The floor must be swept and mopped; in addition, the carpets must be vacuumed.

Notice how everyone one of them, the semicolon is used to separate the main clauses. I hope that helped.

In sentences a semicolon is used to combine two individual sentences; a semicolon is used in the place of a period. I believe this is right but I taught this to myself.

What value of the period in which it was composed does Beowulf reflect? A. the role of women B. the importance of religion C. th
Julli [10]

The answer is C. This is because Beowulf possesses certain characteristics in which the Anglo-Saxon society viewed as true attributes of a warrior. These include things like his seemingly divine strength, loyalty to his king, courage in battle, chivalrous ways, expertise in politics, and high status. Although the story does reflect moments in which he acts to restore his dignity, he also stated that it was the best thing for a warrior to earn fame before death, which cancels out option D. While he is seen giving thanks to God for his victories, it's widely believed that the story was written by a pre-Christian monk. This belief system implies that one's reputation and taking vengeance to right a wrong holds a higher importance than eternal life, which cancels out option B.
