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 :)

A well-known proverb states, "A picture is worth a thousand words." What story does the image below inspire you to tell? Write a
seraphim [82]

It was a brisk summer evening. Gray came to the edge of the lake that surounded his grandparents summer house. He looked at the sunset for a while and then remebered what he has promised to his grandmother Lily. Book was hanging from his pocket, as he stepped over a rock and sat on the moss covered ground. The sun was turning the horizon into the warmest hug. The book belonged to his mother Anna, who passed away just over a year ago. Since then, Gray has been living with his grandparents in the country side. Anna was a beautiful woman, who served as a public defender. She was not at home a lot of the times, which meant that Gray had to learn how to take care of himself since the early age. He had a lot of friends from school and he spent a lot of time playing with them around the neighboorhod. He never met his father and Anna never cared to speak about him. It all happened so suddenly. One night, his mother was rushed to the hospital and he never saw her again. He could not remember the last conversation they had, but it was probably something related to his home work and his lack of discipline. He never enjoyed studying. His mind was alwyas set on some skeem or a project that he needed to complete. Sitting and reading seemd so boring and unnececcary. As he was opening the first page of the book, a piece a of paper fell into his lap and he recognized his mothers writting. The sun casted the last rays of golden light and he started reading, rushing through the words before the nightfall.
