Answer:

D.  To link ideas across sentences and paragraphs.

Explanation:

The purpose of transitional words within a piece of text is to smoothly shift to your next point. Think of it as a period. A period signifies the end of a sentence right? Then you can think of transition words as the end of a point you have just made, and the start of the next one you are about to make.

PLZ HELP 40 POINTS!!!!!
xenn [34]

Answer:

D. I see three new students on the roster: Brown, Brian; Jones, Janis; and Monroe, Max.

Explanation:

In this situation, due to commas using two functions may lead to confusion, a semicolon is used as a more powerful comma.

A does not use this, so <em>it could be misread easily</em>.

B puts the semicolon where only a comma could suffice, so <em>it separates the entity "Brown, Brian" and turns it into "Brown" "Brian, Jones"</em>.

C works correctly <em>until the oxford comma, which throws up the entity grouping</em>.

D is the only one that perfectly groups the three entities.
