Which of the following uses dashes correctly?
lesya692 [45]

<u>Answer</u>:

Out of the following sentences, the one that uses dashes correctly is - "The New Zealand Papua New Guinea handball team's stars Fredrickson, lacho, Honey, and Ipatas, have all demonstrated - hey, what's that duck doing here? Here, the right answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation</u>:

There is a surprise element at the end of the sentence which is marked by an exclamation ‘hey’ and a question. So, the dash is placed after the verb ‘demonstrated’ to highlight this surprise element of the sentence.

Also, the dash is used to emphasise on the conclusion or introduction of the sentence. Over here it gives importance to the conclusion of the sentence. Plus, it helps in breaking up the dialogue here.

Write a letter to your friend who left your school for another​
olga55 [171]

Answer: Hoi friend,

Hey, I missed sooo much and you dont even know it! Its just not the same around here with you gone. Oh and today Anniyah just pranked the teacher and it was soo funny and when I just turned around to see you I forgot you were gone :( . I miss getting into something crazy with you. I miss our crazy plans and things we say to each other. It is genuinely true that we would be put in a mental hospital if other people heard what we said to each other. I miss writing to each other in class instead of writing notes. I miss our fast food runs after school instead of studying together. I remember when we first met. Neither of us knew what to say, so we started the way most great friends do, with “hello, my name is…” From there, one could say the rest is history. But it’s that history that is so important.

There are so many things I miss about you. I miss seeing you smile when I say something unintentionally funny. I miss our movie nights, when it was just the two of us. I miss the way you were an open ear, a shoulder to lean on and someone to laugh with, all in one package. Omg I miss you  :(

From your friend, Annikah
