Answer: B.

Explanation: You don't place a semicolon before coordinating conjunctions like "and", "but" or "so." Sentences A and D would be correct <em>without</em> the semicolon, and in sentence C, we should replace it with a comma (which is also an acceptable solution in sentences A and D). Sentence B successfully links two independent clauses that are so related semantically that it's best for them to be in the same sentence.
