D seems like the most correct.

BartSMP [9]3 years ago

Answer: The semicolon is used correctly in sentence D. Joe watered the garden; however, the plants did not grow.

Explanation: A semicolon is a punctuation mark mainly used to join two independent clauses. When using a semicolon, conjunctions should not be added. Moreover, a semicolon is used in a sentence when there is a conjunctive adverb connecting two independent clauses. Therefore,<u> the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly is D.</u> ("Joe watered the garden; however, the plants did not grow")<u> since the semicolon has been used before a conjunctive adverb ("however") that is connecting two independent clauses. </u>

What is the noun phrase in the sentence below?
Veronika [31]
The noun phrase in the sentence above is the first option - the gooey, chocolate fudge brownies.
You have to write the whole thing and not separate these words because they are intricately connected into one noun phrase, so you cannot say just fudge brownies because that's not the whole phrase.
Tasted perfect is a verb phrase, and topped with icecream is an adjective phrase.

you are a computer addict, and this has affected your studies. So you have decided to write a letter to your pen-friend to ask h
Effectus [21]

Hi  (name of your pen-friend)

Hope you're doing well. I really have a problem and need your help. I realized not so long ago (that) I was addicted to computers and of course the Internet. At first I was going on the Internet for my homework, but now, I spend my time on it. I used to read books, go to the movie, listen to music..

I go on social networks, read the news on the Internet, knowing that there are a lot of lies.. you know what I mean.. that kind of news becoming virtual.. but I just can't help it. I made virtual friends.. which is ridiculous.. I do have true friends. They don't understand why I always find an excuse not to be with them...

I spend my nights on the computer, on the Internet, playing online, chatting with people I don't really care about ...

My computer is becoming a golden cage .....  but it's all fake !! I loved going out with my friends, to parties, to the stadium or whatever..  It's all finished... they're going to let me down if I don't wake up !!

I told you I had good marks, I was doing well at school.. Well, not anymore ... I didn't pass the last exams.. I still want to be a doctor.. but I really have to wake up ...

I could have sent you an email.. but, my first step was to write a letter to you and not hurry on my computer.

Everything seems easier with a keyboard and a screen, but it's like being in a jail when you become addicted to it ..

So please help me to get out of this stupid addiction I'm getting into..

Don't let me down. I became a disappointment for my parents, my friends and myself ...

I really want to stop and be back in a "normal" life.. I mean everybody's life and mine. I don't want my dreams being a doctor to go away ..

I know you won't judge me and will give me good advice and help me to wake up !!

Thank's for everything... so long
