Answer:

The sentence choice that does NOT use the semicolon correctly is:

A. it is late at night; and my coffee is not helping with my exhaustion

Explanation:

In order to link two independent clauses, a semicolon is used. The two independent clauses are equal in the position which are joined by the semicolon. The independent clauses are joined by the connectors which are but, and, or, nor, etc when one or more commas appear in the first clause. In the above sentences, the first sentence does not have any comma in the sentence. The other two sentences have independent clauses.

Which two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country" show that medals and awards in war don’t always
Marat540 [252]

The answers are

After that their manner changed a little toward me, although I was their friend against outsiders.

I was a friend, but I was never really one of them after they had read the citations, because it had been different with them and they had done very different things to get their medals.


These two are sentences because they are separated by peridods, commas only denote a smaller break in a long sentence. In these two sentences the author says that after learning how he got his medals the others were less enthused about them and started treating the narrator differently.

Reread Sonnet 30 by William Shakespeare. How does the speaker behave and feel in the poem before he thinks of his “dear friend”?
aev [14]

Answer: 1. He feels and behaves depressed and regretful about his past actions and thoughts. 2. The thought of his "dear friend" compensates his losses and his sorrow ends. 3. Because by changing his tone he makes emphasis the fact that his "dear friend" was indeed the light of his life.

Explanation: Shakespeare conveys a very sad and depressing message in the sonnet, regretting how he failed to achieve his goals, wasted the best years of his life, and crying over the loss of his friends. We can see this in the following lines: "I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought, then can I drown an eye, and with old woes new wail my dear time's waste.

Nevertheless, in the lines "But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restor'd and sorrows end", he acknowledges his "dear friend", and the sonnet makes a twist. He emphasizes that thinking of this person relieves all his guilt and pain, making then, a tribute to them.
