The speaker shows how in the eighth month of waiting, she is sad to see the butterflies flying in pairs, as this reinforces the idea of loneliness that she feels.

"Changgan Memories" by Li Po is a poem about a young couple who had to split up after two years of marriage.

A comma splice is where two independent clauses (complete sentences) are joined together with a comma without also including a conjunction such as "and" or "but." Sentences B and D above both contain comma splices (the comma after "century" in B and the comma after "areas" in D). D is also missing a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence. The problem in sentence C is the commas surrounding the word "however." When the word "however is used to join two independent clauses like this, it should be preceded by a semicolon and followed by a comma. In this sentence, the semicolon belongs after the word "area." The word "however" begins the second independent clause. Thus, the only correct sentence above is A.
