Which sentence uses a dash correctly?

English
2 answers:
Ilya [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The answer is: <u>C. Roland glanced over his shoulder — John was following him!</u>

Explanation:

Dashes are used to make a pause, they are different in usage to a hyphen as this last is used to separate words, not groups of words as dashes do. In this case, we can see that the sentece has "somehow finished": <em>Roland glanced over his shoulder... </em>we made a pause to add extra information which here is basically the reason for why he glanced over his shoulder. The other examples do not have a pause, for instance the first option is only a question which is not adding extra information not making a pause, as it's pretty linear. Option B doesn't have a dash before the one at the end, so this is incorrect. and finally letter D, as letter A, doesn't need a pause there, and it is not adding extra information, the extra information is given after the comma.

Jlenok [28]

In my opinion, good looks and behaving childishly is what the standard is these days. It's not that the people who have extraordinary skill, courage, and determination did anything wrong or are missing a step in accomplishing their goals, it's the people. In this day and age, teens have the need to support people that make them laugh even if the subject is revolting. For example, an app includes many talented people, but those people don't get enough recognition because some teens just aren't interested in a majority of the people that actually have talent, instead, they focus on hyping up people that do a small dance with their arms and have an appealing appearance. If we change today's standards and revolve into a more knowledgeable society, talented people that actually deserve fame would get what they deserve.
