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 :)

The _____ is what all the sentences are about and answers the question, "What's the point?" a. Connection b. Author's purpose c.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

d. Main idea

Explanation:

The main idea of a paragraph refers to the point or idea that the author intends to convey. Thus, it communicates the aim, purpose and topic of the text. Therefore, the rest of the sentences in the paragraph act as the supporting details, since they develop, explain and exemplify the main idea, which is usually stated in the topic sentence.
