Which sentence in the passage uses the colon correctly? After years of conforming to her parents' wishes and ideals: Allison had

finally decided to rebel. She was tired of constantly having the weight of her parents' expectations on her shoulders. She had made up her mind to travel westward: and pursue her dreams of becoming a songwriter. She had been participating in songwriting contests since she was ten: nothing fulfilled her more than music. She risked her parents' wrath because she knew they would understand her once she succeeded. So, without any hesitation, Allison made up her mind: to continue pursuing her dreams.

Answer:

F

Explanation:

 The sentence in option F uses the colon correctly because one of the purposes of the colon is to separate two independent clauses, where the second explains the first. The sentence "So, without any hesitation, Allison made up her mind" is complete but leaves a certain expectation, which is explained by "to continue pursuing her dreams", placing a colon between them.
