Answer:

Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview; he had thought through each potential question.

Explanation:

<u>It is best to put a semicolon before the part “he had thought through each potential question”. </u><u>This part can stand as a separate sentence, which is why it is correct to put semicolons here</u>, and not after “Despite his nerves” like in example B. This part is dependent on the rest of the sentence.

<u>The reason why it can also be put after the semicolon is the fact it adds the information to what has been said before</u>. <em>Because </em>Sameer thought through the questions, he is feeling ready. This is why example A is not correct – it includes the word <u>although</u>, which would mean that he was ready <em>despite </em>doing something and not <em>because </em>of it.

Example C is not correct because it provides no connection between the first and second parts of the sentence.

PLEASE ANSWER FAST 2. The author states, “I thought back to the previous morning, remembering the crazy repacking of my sled wit
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

A or D.

Explanation:

“I thought back to the previous morning, remembering the crazy repacking of my sled with gear ending up in all the wrong places as I just stood there not wanting to offend anyone"

(A) or (D) are the most likely answers because there is no mention of blisters or hurt feet in the above sentence, and there is no mention of obstacles or challenges. Whereas, we know that the author did not want to offend anyone and that they were repacking the sled, so (B) is possible. Similarly, we know that the author is daydreaming about repacking the sled, so it is possible that the actions of the previous morning were causing issues in the current moment (C). Hope this helps!
