Answer:

a colon

Explanation:

A colon is used in sentences where the author wishes to state the order of things. A semi colon which looks like the colon is used to set apart two independent sentences. In the sentence above, a colon is the right punctuation to use because the author states the order of important points.

Before he begins stating this order, he attaches a colon to show that a list is being made. Colons are used to distinguish lists, examples and quotes.

In “Your Laughter,” the symbol of the blue flower expresses the speaker’s _____.
cluponka [151]

Answer: I do not know if this is a multiple choice question or not, but I would contend that the blue flower is a reference to Neruda's country, Chile.

Explanation: The color blue is part of the flag of Chile. It symbolises, in part, the Pacific Ocean, and I believe that in these lines of his famous poem, the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda was referring to his beloved country, which he had had to abandon due to his political views. He is telling his lover that he wants her laughter like the flower he was waiting for, "the blue flower, the rose of my echoing country." He cannot have his country, but his lover's laughter will bring him the comfort that he needs in these difficult days away from his homeland.

Adding many irrelevant facts to a paragraph makes it more interesting true of false?
nikklg [1K]
False. 

Adding many irrelevant facts to a paragraph may just cause confusion. When writing a paragraph, it is always better to present one idea and support it with relevant facts. If you're writing an essay, one idea per one paragraph should be followed. That way, you will present all your ideas clearly.
