The correct answer is "The new electric pencil sharpener does not sharpen well; I prefer the old manual one."

Explanation:

In grammar, to combine to sentence often implies to use a punctuation mark or transition to create a longer and more complex sentence, which varies depending on the type of sentences and the relation between both.

In the case presented, the two sentences "The new electric pencil sharpener does not work properly" and "I prefer the old manual one" are independent clauses, this means they can stand by themselves and express complete ideas. Due to these, according to grammar these sentences can only be linked using a semicolon (;) or a comma (,) and a conjunction, this means, from the options presented the only one that shows a correct way to combine these sentences si "The new electric pencil sharpener does not sharpen well; I prefer the old manual one".

cluponka [151]

The answer is between B and D.

The 300 villages in the Lottery are blindly obedient to a tradition that is years and years old. Some things have been dropped and others added and nobody quite knows why.

The beginning of June 28 is just as serene. There are all sorts of interpretations, but nothing hides Jackson's anger about blind tradition that would even sacrifice young children and accept it as being a "good sport."

Tilly is the only one who is justifiably upset. The stones are going to be about her and they will kill her. Being stoned in the Bible was a slow painful process. You weren't killed by being hit. You died by suffocation because the weight of the stones eventually was greater than what the lungs could push up and let down so you could continue breathing.

This stoning is less biological and more what you think stoning should accomplish -- death by loss of blood.  It is a horrible death. Everyone seems to take it for granted -- everyone but Tilly who had to endure it.

If you were writing an essay, you could easily defend A, B and D.  My choice is D, but I wouldn't discount B at all.
