The correct answer is:  [B]:  "semicolon" .
___________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  
___________________________________________________________
Choice:  [A]:  "comma" — is INCORRECT.  Note that placing a "comma" would result in an error known as "comma splice".
___________________________________________________________
Choice:  [C]:  "period" — is INCORRECT.   Note that placing a "period" would be incorrect.  Doing so would result in a new sentence that does not begin with a capital letter.
____________________________________________________________
Choice:  [D]:  "no punctuation is needed" —is INCORRECT.  Note that if the statement were left alone, the statement would be a "<u>run-on sentence</u>". 
___________________________________________________________
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "semicolon".  If a new sentence could be formed; and if the ideas could connect; it is acceptable to place a "semicolon" between the "two potential statements to form one statement" ; and to NOT CAPITALIZE the first word of the "second [potential sentence]" —<u>unless</u> that "[second potential sentence] begins with a proper pronoun.

In this line of <em>Brave, New World</em>, John uses a quote from <em>The Tempest</em> by William Shakespeare to communicate with Lenina. John talks about how some forms of "baseness" (something that is low, or that lacks merit) are undergone nobly. This means that some actions, even of they are bad or difficult, must be accepted honourably. This points to the idea of sacrificing and enduring difficulties. What John wants Lenina to understand is that he has a desire to make sacrifices or offerings in order to win her love.

Dear friends, today we are gathered to say goodbye to Don Quixote, a great man, whom I have sweet memories and that will never be erased from my mind. Don Quixote was a dreamer, intelligent and courageous. Many called him crazy and throughout his life he had to live with the humiliation and mockery of his closest friends who saw him as insane for living his own convictions. I confess that I was one of those and I regret not having given my attention to him before. I believe his friends would also be sorry if they heard him without judgment, as I did when I decided to be his faithful squire.

Don Quixote was a knight inside and out, he dared to keep the wonderful world of fantasy in our cruel reality. He was noble, kind, generous and passionate ... in love with life, books, adventures, landscapes and fantasy. Today he promotes his latest adventure and while we say goodbye I ask him not to be sad to continue the walk without me, because I know that when we meet again, our trips will be even more profitable.
