which sentence uses a semicolon correctly
Answer:
sentence no.1
Explanation:
Answer:
4
Explanation:
Semi colons are used for 2 independent sentences which are related.
Option 1 is WRONG because the words after the semicolon is not an independent sentence. If a "colon" was used here, it would be correct.
Option 2 is WRONG because of the same reasoning above, but using a "colon" here would still be wrong.
Option 3 is WRONG of the same reasoning for option 2.
Option 4 is CORRECT because it has 2 independent sentences combined with a semicolon which the topics are also related to eachother.

In your own words explain what this quote means to you: “I may think I see you as you are, but in truth, I see you as I am.” - Susan Scott
Answer:
We can not see any person for who they are. We can only see similarities between us. Every person has hidden feelings, extraordinary thoughts, and meaningful tallents. We judge people by what we see ( similarities or differences between us ) We can not put ourselves in anyone's shoes. We can not see them as they see them because we have not ever seen anything with their eyes. We all have a different story to tell even if we saw the same play, fight etc. We judge ourselves and compare ourselves to other people. We make assumptions and judge even without realizing it.

Palomina was all set for the pool party. It was summer, her favorite season, and she was happy to make a great use of her wardrobe today. After hours of thinking, planning, and shuffling through her clothes, she finally picked out a pair of white shorts and a yellow polka-dot T-shirt.
"Yes!" she approved of herself in the mirror. "Now, this is when my yellow and white striped sandals come in handy."
Palomina smiled at herself. I just might be a fashion designer or something, she thought with glee and took dainty steps from her front yard to the neighbor's. That was when raindrops started attacking her all of a sudden. In a matter of seconds, Palomina was soaked to the bone.
"Well, I will certainly make a great impression looking like this," she said, shaking her head in despair and rushing inside her house.

Please Hurry: Only answer if you are 100% sure). Read the passage. " I hope you are able to see the distinction I am trying to point out.

" Question 1) Why does King use the phrase " openly, lovingly, and with a willingness to accept the penalty " when describing how to break an unjust law? A) To describe all law breakers in a positive light, B) To highlight the difference between breaking just and unjust laws. , C) To demonstrate that people who break unjust laws are thinking emotionally, D) To suggest that no laws should ever be broken. ( Next Passage) " Since we so diligently urge people to obey the Supreme Court's decision of 1954 outlawing segregation in the public schools, at first glance it may seem rather paradoxical for us consciously to break laws. One may well ask: ' How can you advocate breaking some laws and obeying others?" Question 2: Which phrase BEST helps the reader understand the word " paradoxical?"

Answer:
I hope that you would understand - is somewhat more formal in tone - than I hope you understand. You could use either but - - I hope that you would understand - uses the conditional and that puts respect into the sentence - and a bit of respectful distance - that is very appropriate to formal writing.

A story that ends i suddenly woke up realized it was a dream

Nadia had seen the best of times and the worst of times in her school. But, she had constantly maintained her grades. When Mrs. Sue came to Woodland High as the new English teacher, things changed for everyone, including Nadia. Mrs. Sue expected her students to be at the Advanced Placement level classes and challenged them each and every day.
It was no surprise when she tested her students' knowledge of world literature on the mid-term. During the quiz, the students were sweating like horses at the finish line of a racetrack on a Texas summer day.
"So, how was it?" Nadia asked her best friend Paul after the test. "Didn't see that coming."
"Oh, I thought it was pleasant," Paul replied, wiping sweat from his brow. "Like a root canal."
Why is Paul's response at the end of the story an example of verbal irony?
A. because he knows Nadia is smarter than him
B. because Nadia helps him study for the exam
C. because Mrs. Sue can actually hear his response
D. because he feels the exam was painfully tough
Answer: D. because he feels the exam was painfully tough
Explanation:
Verbal irony: a figure of speech when somebody means something other than what they said/they reality.
Paul says that the exam was as pleasant as a root canal, and root canals are not pleasant at all. This tells us that Paul did not find the exam nice, rather, he found it painful, hence he meant the opposite of what he actually said.

It's cringe read if you want and give me ur opinion
William glared at his son in horror. He sat in tears on the floor, both hands clutching his bloodied face as the crimson-coated blade rested in the delicate, pearly hands of William's new bride. In normal circumstances, he would have raced to the child's side and intervened if he saw a woman beating a 4-year-old child and viciously slashing his face in a fit of rage. Yet, his son meant nothing to him, and his bride meant everything to him. If she got so angry as to cut him, it was for a good reason. That day he cast little Edgar out of his home and life. He was officially dead to him.
Alice stared at Edgar with warm but concerned eyes. He glanced back at her and quietly asked,
"What's wrong, Mama?"
She was not his true mother. She'd found him curled up in an alleyway crying and almost ran away when she saw his disfigured face. Still, because he was only a child, she took him home and nursed his injuries, ending up informally adopting him. Nobody but her, her father, and the house staff even knew of his existence. Fourteen years had passed since that day, and he still bore scars. There were two grotesque slashes on his youthful face which ran the length of his entire face. Both his eyes were cut, and although he retained some of his vision, his brown eyes turned yellow, without a visible pupil, which gave him an even more disturbing appearance. Because of him, she lived in a fully remote country estate. That way, he could be free and wouldn't have people looking at him with ridicule, or worse, fear.
"Nothing, Edgar." She said in a flat voice. He stared at her for a while before going out for a walk. Even though his eyes looked inhuman to a stranger, Alice could see the warmth and emotion in them.
Edgar's brow furrowed as he walked along the narrow trail that ran throughout their property. He turned 18 a week ago, and since that day, he'd been overcome by a stygian melancholy. As much as he loved his mother, he longed for other company. He thought of the looks people would have on their faces if they ever saw him. The scars on his face were tolerable, but his eyes were repulsive. Even the doctors thought he was demonic. Still, he could tolerate it. He squeezed his eyes shut and kept walking, hearing the crisp, rapid water of the river flowing beside him. He'd walked too far. Turning around, Edgar faced the large country house he lived in. A finely dressed man stepped outside a black carriage and into the house. A low combination of panic and interest drained into his lacquered eyes as he ran to the house.
Alice stood in the entry with sunken eyes. She looked like she'd aged a decade in the last few minutes.
"Mama?" Edgar asked, regarding the man speaking to her as invisible. The man slowly turned to face him, and his eyes were obviously disgusted. However, after studying Edgar for a short while, his solemn, pale eyes steadily relaxed. Before him stood a tall young man with two deep cuts on his face and pale milky yellow irises that blurred into a white pupil. Despite this, he exuded a gentle and honourable demeanour.
"Edgar, come inside." Alice muttered. The three of them stood in the living room nervously before the stranger spoke.
"My name is Emanuel White. I came from London to collect you because your father has just died and, as his eldest son, it is your right to inherit."
Edgar looked at Emanuel with indignant bewilderment, then to his mother, who looked vacantly at the floor with a solemn smile.
"My father has been dead for years." He proclaimed with unfaltering certainty, remembering what his mother told him. The man's face shifted into an expression Edgar couldn't read, but his lips pulled together closely.
"No, he has not. Your father is a rich landowner named William Loxley. Your mother is The Honourable Miss Elizabeth Forest, Lord Coin's daughter. Mr. Loxley remarried an evil lady from an ambitious family after your mother died. This woman violently disfigured Miss Elizabeth's only boy, you, and then abandoned you in an alleyway." Emanuel said.
Sorry it's too long so its like cut off
Answer:
I think it is good. However, I think it would be better if you had explained the description of Alice and Edgar before you went into the part with "Alice stared at Edgar with warm but concerned eyes. He glanced back at her and quietly asked, "What's wrong, Mama?".
I thought this because it went from William to Alice/Edgar which was kind of a confusing jump (I thought Alice was the wife). Overall, it was really good.
It's pretty good, but i'm confused because the first paragraph feels like a different story. The child went from being injured to being okay? It's kind of jumping all over the place, and it's difficult to identify different characters. Other than that it's a great story.

Read this passage from The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe. Then, answer the following
questions:
The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult
vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that I gave
utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitely settled - but the very
definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk. I must not only punish but
punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally
unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong.
It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had van Fortunato come to do my dood
will. I continued, as was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive
at the thought of his immolation."
"impunity: freedom from consequences
