The last sentence out of all of the sentences is grammatically correct - He couldn't find his baseball glove; it was under a pile of clothes.

As the rule stated, a semicolon is prefered rather than a comma if you have two independent clauses connected without a conjunction. If you have two long independent clauses when conjunctions such as and, or, but, for, nor, you will prefer a comma.

So, the correct option is D. He couldn't find his baseball glove; it was under a pile of clothes.

Since we have two independent clauses without a conjuction to connect them, a semicolon is employed to separate them.

The best option among the answer choices to put the sentences in the correct order and form the paragraph is 3,2,4,1, as stated in option B.

<h3>What is the appropriated order?</h3>

After analyzing the sentences, we can see the following:

  • Sentence 4 complements sentence 2. That means the two of them should appear together in our answer choice.
  • Since sentence 2 begins with "or", it should come after another sentence that suggests something different. In that case, the best option is sentence 3.
  • Sentence 1 can appear at the beginning or the ending of the paragraph, as long as the order of the other sentences makes sense.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the best answer choice is option B, 3,2,4,1.

Read the passage from act 3 scene 4 of twelfth night by William Shakespeare . Which recurring idea in the play does the passage
Rus_ich [418]
Alleged madness

The passage from Act 3 Scene 4 has the recurring idea of  alleged madness. First, Olivia, Maria, Sir Toby and Fabian were all making Malvolio seem crazy and devil-possessed with his snobbery and arrogance. Then, the passage shows Olivia desperately in love, thinking she is like Malvolio--going mad. Lastly, Antonio's friendship to Sebastian ( who was actually Cesario) was introduced. Antonio was made to seem mad from his misdirected loyalty.
