Answer:
The list that requires semicolons instead of commas is:
<u>B. Sacramento, California, Denver, Colorado, Phoenix, Arizona, and Santa Fe, New Mexico.</u>
Explanation:
Notice that letter B has the most confusing list of places, while the other lists look neater. The reason for that is the fact that <u>lists A, C and D all mention places that are similar</u>. A only lists states, C only lists countries, and D only lists continents. <u>On the other hand, list B mentions cities as well as the states where they are located. Therefore, to make it easier to understand, we should use semicolons instead of commas. The correct form would be:</u>
- Sacramento, California; Denver, Colorado; Phoenix, Arizona; and Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Answer:
I shot up in bed awakened by the sound that I had thought was my alarm clock. I was surprised to find that the glowing red LED lights read 2:11 am. If it wasn't the alarm clock what was it? I had thought to myself while wiping the sleep from my eyes. Suddenly I heard a deafening crack. The type of crack you hear when you pour boiling water on ice. While the noise filled my ears a blinding light lit up my bedroom. I could make everything out as if someone had just flipped the switch on. I saw my vanity clear as day across the room.
t took a few moments before I came to my senses and realized what was happening. I had scanned the weather only hours on my laptop and had not noticed any warnings of a storm approaching. But here I was looking out my bedroom window face to face with the violent beast.
Suddenly I heard another deafening crack of thunder. This one so powerful my whole house trembled under the force of the storm. Like a child I ran for the security of my bed. Still warm from the few hours I had previously spent peacefully sleeping in it. I crawled deep within my blankets, covering myself from head to toe. Leaving nothing but a small space exposed, just large enough for me to see out of.
It felt like hours I lied there listening to the storm wishing that it would pass. Just when I thought it had moved on I was proven wrong and it gave me another terrifying blast as if it just needed a moment to put all of its power together.
My eyelids became so heavy that the struggle to keep my eyes open became stronger than my fear of the storm. The warmth that my body had generated under the blankets was getting to me. I was falling asleep. Despite my intense fear of closing my eyes and leaving myself vulnerable to the storm I eventually drifted off.
Despite the fear that the storm had embedded on my soul and the disaster it had turned my yard into. It sure did bring on a beautiful day.
Explanation:
Violence should be censored, this would reduce crimes because the rate of people exposed to violence would go down causing the rate of people desensitized (unaffected) by it to go down because the more a person is exposed to something visually the less it starts to bother them ( violence in movies,video games, social media, etc.). Once the rate of unaffected people goes down it will bring down the rate of crime because things like blood, gore, etc, will displease people and they themselves wont be comfortable with being the cause of it.
Here is the sentence using the words capacity and regulation:
The capacity of the hall can only accommodate at most 500 people; therefore, strict regulation of the flow of the people going in and out must be observed all the time. Regulation means control or management. Capacity means the amount or size that something can contain. Hope this answer helps.
