The correct answer is A. Hannah Teter has won medals in several Olympic games: 2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver

Explanation:

In grammar, the colon (:) is mostly used to introduce a list or set of elements that explain a previous sentence. This means the colon should be placed right before the elements it introduces and besides this, it can only be included if the previous sentence is independent. According to this, in the sentence "Hannah Teter has won medals in several Olympic games: 2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver" the colon should be placed after the word "games" and before "2003 Aspen" because "2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver" is the list of items that explain the Olympic games Hannah Teter participated in, also by placing the colon in this position the first sentence is complete and independent.

Answer:

body weight of the runner. As a result, knees and other joints may become injured.

Barefoot runners tend to land on the balls of their feet when running. This is a healthier,

softer landing, which reduces the amount of impact and injury on the joints.

Barefoot running is an inexpensive, natural, healthy way to exercise. Expensive shoes

aren’t needed to improve your health. Running barefoot allows the runner’s body to

perform naturally. Their muscles become stronger, and their balance is improved.

Exercise can be inexpensive and efficient without the use of shoes. So, throw off those

shoes, and run free!

Mariulka [41]

Answer: a. to inform readers about different types of ads

Explanation:

The Passage is meant to convey to the reader that there are multiple types of Ads around as well as how those ads work.
