Select the sentence that uses semicolons correctly.

English

Answer:

The first one is correct.

Explanation:

When you write the name of one city, you put a comma inbetween the city and the state names.

<em>Ex:</em><em> Durango, Colorado</em>

When you list multiple cities in multiple different states, you need to put semicolons in between them. When you don't do this it looks like you are just listing states and cities separately. The last option is a perfect example of this. If you read it out loud, it just doesn't sound right.  <em>Ex: </em><em>Durango, Colorado, Las Vegas, Nevada. </em>It sounds as if you were reading a list of names off the class roster.

When you add semicolons, it clarifies a series and indicates two closely related sentences. The first answer does this correctly, so the first answer is the correct one.

Hope this helps :)

How does the opening of "Marian Anderson Sings" compare to the opening structure of the biography of Marian Anderson?
dem82 [27]

D, Both "Marian Anderson Sings" and the biography use a cause and effect structure; therefore, each open with an important event and the effect it had on Anderson's life.


Marian Anderson was one of the first African American singers to perform at the White House and at the New York’s Metropolitan Opera. She was the one who helped in breaking the barrios of racial discrimination of the African American artists. Her voice was free from the bitterness, blame, and meanness. Her art of singing was considered saintly and humanly.

She began singing at the Lincoln Memorial with the song My Country 'Tis of Thee.’ The whole auditorium arose with her emotional and sensational voice.
