Answer:

O A. I have some . . . fantastic news to share.

Explanation:

Punctuation allows for a better understanding and usage of the English language in such a way that there are indications for how the sentences must be taken and how they are to be read. It also shows when and where the sentence ends, pause or even have a long pause, as in hesitation.

In the given sentences, the best show of hesitant speech is in the use of (. . .) in the sentence. This indicates that there is some sort of pause in the sentence, before "fantastic". Options C and D have no pause so they are wrong. Option B uses a hyphen, which is not how pauses are indicated.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

<h2>                                                NATURE</h2>

Have you ever wondered how Nature works? Well, I will help you learn how Nature works. You may have heard of mother nature. Mother Nature controls the weather, such as rain, snow, hail, and much more. Mother nature can also control disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and much more.

We may not know everything that Mother Nature does, but we know a few things about Mother Nature. We do know how Mother Nature can control loads of things. Mother Nature also controls when it is fall, etc.

Mother Nature can make grass disappear, or even make the leaves fall out of the trees. Mother Nature helps us determine what is coming etc.

Mother Nature helps us find more things about science. We all know that science is important to us humans. Nature is important as well to humans or even animals.

Now that you know how Nature works, I will now explain how it is the correct way how Nature works.

Humans and animals are always in Nature. We may not know that, but we are! You know how there are rain and snow. Snow usually appears during winter. Rain appears every season.  Rain is normal, same for snow.
