The sentence that uses a colon correctly is: "Maggie was turned away at the door of the show: she didn't have a ticket or any money, and the show had already started an hour before. The rule applied here is, the punctuation mark, colon, can be used to separate two independent clauses in the sentence given that the second clause is the explanation of the first clause.
Answer:
Revised laws, just leaders, unwavering support— this is how we restore peace and end segregation.
Explanation:
The em dash or long dash is one form of punctuation in grammar that has been confused and even mixed with the en dash, hyphen, etc. It has also been majorly replaced in its usage in a sentence by the comma, parenthesis, or even the semi-colon.
In the given sentence, the em dash will be used. This is so that the first part of the sentence <em>"revised laws, just leaders, unwavering support"</em> is the list of points that the sentence is trying to make. And the em dash will emphasize them while also separating them in the same manner.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
