The correct answer to what effect has the author created by joining her reactions with a semicolon instead of two separate sentences is A. to emphasize the quickness of her thoughts and feelings.
The semicolon usually indicates <em>only a pause, instead of a break, like an effect usually caused by a period</em>, that indicates the end of a sentence. The pause created by the semicolon shows that<em> there is a connection between what was said before it and after it.</em> In this case, Sylvia's reaction, <em>her heart's wild beat, is directly connected to her thoughts that came right after it.</em> Therefore, her <em>thoughts come very fast right after her heartbeat</em>, and that effect is caused by the use of the semicolon, that creates only a small pause. Thus, the effect that the author has created by joining her reactions with a semicolon was A. to emphasize the quickness of her thoughts and feelings.
The correct answer couldn't be<em> B. to demonstrate her love of nature</em>, because there is n<em>o indication of her love of nature in this passage, only of her feelings and thoughts</em> as she observed the heron mentioned. Thus, the correct answer couldn't be B. to demonstrate her love of nature.
The correct answer couldn't be <em>C. to show how confused she is about what the stranger is asking</em> because there was <em>no sign of Sylvia being confused</em>, on the contrary,<em> she had a fast emotional response to the stranger's question and the semicolon reveals her feelings and thoughts altogether.</em> Hence, the correct answer couldn't be C. to show how confused she is about what the stranger is asking.
The correct answer couldn't be <em>D. to cause the reader to wonder what her reaction will be</em> because<em> her reaction is expressed </em>in this passage, as the <em>author describes her feelings and thoughts.</em> The reader doesn't have to wonder but has <em>her reactions there explicit.</em> So, the correct answer couldn't be D. to cause the reader to wonder what her reaction will be.

Explanation:
<span>The oratory of African Americans has been judged by a primarily epideictic, aesthetic character since the "principal motif of African American discourse has necessarily been the subject of appearance sheer physical appearance and its fateful effects on public life". Douglass' characterization as an epideictic orator may also be in part due to his fiery style and his tendency to appropriate epideictic occasions for his oratory. This reduction of Douglass' rhetoric to an epideictic or ceremonial function is limiting and no doubt has contributed to the lack of scholarship and critical inquiry surrounding his oratory.</span>
