Answer:
(D) Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview; he had thought through each potential question.
Explanation:
Semicolons are used when dealing with two thoughts that could be their own sentences.
Potential Sentence One: Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview.
Potential Sentence Two: He had thought through each potential question.
The semicolon separates these two sentences, so that they are one sentence.
<u><em>Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview; he had thought through each potential question.</em></u>

Answer:
Farenheit 451 is set in the 24th century in a country where no one reads books anymore because life has to be lived quickly. There is no more time for reading. The ideas in books are seen as defamatory and books are therefore burned the moment they are discovered.
Guy Montag works as a fireman, which at the time meant that he burned books. He likes his job and sees the kerosene smell that surrounds him as a kind of perfume. When he comes home after work, he feels lonely. His wife Mildred wants to be entertained 24 hours a day and therefore has a small radio permanently in her ear and the three TVs in the apartment are also on all day.
The correct answer is D. charity.
A colon (:) should be placed after the word charity in the sentence above. This is because you are giving the name to her charity, and therefore, a colon should be there in order to separate the sentence from the actual name. So the sentence should be:
(...) who benefit from her charity: Hannah's Gold.
