Which sentence uses a colon or a semicolon correctly?
A. Before you jump in the car and start it, think; Do I have everything I need?
B. Pedro summarized the speech; "Serving your country is a noble cause."
C. This is what I saw: a row of metal garage doors shaded by a long awning.
D. Ian bought spoons, forks, and knives: a spatula and ladle set: and a blender.
Answer:
This may leave you wondering if you should use a colon or a semicolon to connect two independent clauses. Here's a good rule of thumb. If the two clauses are merely related, not necessarily sequential in thought, use a semicolon. However, if the two related clauses follow a sequence of thought, use a colon.
Explanation:
Option B. Pedro summarized the speech; "Serving your country is a noble cause." uses a colon or a semicolon correctly.
What is semicolon?A Semi-colon(;) and a Colon(:) exist as both punctuation marks utilized in a sentence or phrase. A semi-colon stand is essentially utilized to bring together two independent clauses that are related in a sentence. It exists used to obtain together complex clauses utilizing coordinating conjunction.
A colon exists as a supporting component in a sentence. It exists used to demonstrate that a sentence observes the other. Colons are utilized to keep apart two independent clauses. It can also be utilized in a sentence having quotations.
Given the above, "Pedro summarized the speech" and "serving your country exists a noble cause" can stand on their own but exist joined by a semi-colon.
Hence, Option B is correct.

Letter to editor / Editorial piece

I find it that Carnivals are not only a waste of money and precious time, but also they are rooted to paganism beliefs. The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, edited by James Hastings states that carnivals were dedicated for the goddess Dionysus. She was primarily associated as the goddess of fertility and wine. But, she is also known as the goddess of “Grape-harvest, winemaking, orchards and fruit, vegetation, insanity, ritual madness, religious ecstasy, festivity and theatre” as mentioned by Wikipedia. The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics also states that: The worship of Dionysus had its Roman counterpart in the Bacchanalia, as also in the Saturnalia and Lupercalia—festivals which in the later Roman period were characterized by wanton raillery and unbridled freedom, and were in a manner a temporary subversion of civil order. This general spirit, together with certain special features, was transmitted to the Carnival in particular, and this explains why that festival has assumed its peculiar character in regions where Roman civilization reigned supreme.”—Vol. 3, page 226.
Carnivals were celebrated inside the Catholic environment. But, in reality what they did was a modification of ancient pagan festivals. The Encyclopedia Britannica, in its eleventh edition explains the attitudes of the popes toward carnivals. He stated:
“The carnival was held to begin on (6th January) and last till midnight of Shrove Tuesday. There is little doubt that this period represents a compromise which the church always inclined to make with the pagan festivals and that the carnival really represents the Roman Saturnalia. Rome has ever been the headquarters of carnival, and though some popes, notably Clement IX. and XI. and Benedict XIII., made efforts to stem the tide of Bacchanalian revelry, many of the popes were great patrons and promoters of carnival keeping.”—Vol. 5, page 366.
But why have religious leaders who have claimed to be Christian promoted a festival that is of pagan origin? The reason behind it is because of the profound attachment this festival had with the ancient people. The festival was so much attached to the people that the individuals did not want to give it up. So, what happened was that the Church gave in and let the individuals keep celebrating their festival or carnival by claiming it holy. And, the festival they changed its meaning, “associating them with Church teachings such as Lent” as so explains the magazine “Carnival and its Origins” published in 1973. The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics explains:
“By way of effecting a desirable change in the character of long-established popular festivals which could not be summarily abolished, the Church adopted the plan of providing them with Christian motives—a procedure which was very largely adopted in the case of the Carnival festivities.”
Carnivals are bad for people who are Christians and have a religious conscious. Sure, many people who aren't religious will come. But, we want an entire crowd of pagans, non-believers and Christian worshippers to assist to our events. So, its best to go for something that will appeal to everyone. And, focus on everyone's needs.

How do the words used to describe the poems arrest help contribute to the idea that the arrest in the poem is unjust?
Hi. You have not indicated the poem to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question, exactly like yours, which featured the poem "Resisting Arrest." If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.
The words used in the poem convey a sense of impotence, that nothing can be done to free the poem from being found guilty. This frustration and impotence is a result of the poem's inability to defend itself and this refers to the lack of justice, since defense is a right of any accused, the poem, however, does not have this right.
This feeling can be seen by the lines:
"This poem will be guilty"
" this poem will fail."
" this poem knew it was dangerous to ask why?"

Friendship is Man’s emotional and psychological necessity. You can share your feelings, frustrations and happiness with your friend. You can also depend upon your friend for keeping your trust.
A true friend never lets up down even under most threatening circumstances. He/she will never jet ray you even under pressure.
Friendship requires devoting time and patience. There can bal disagreements and quarrels also, which is natural, but one must have till patience to deal with such frustrations.

was chris mccandless sympathetic character
Answer:
Many people feel that Krakauer was rather sympathetic if not outright biased towards Chris. In his writing some people find is a certain heroic slant to Chris's story. I think the novel becomes more readable not because of bias but rather that Krakauer understands MCandless. He sees in Chris similar motivations and attitudes as he had as a young man. This gives the book a depth of meaning because Krakauer is a great writer and Chris somehow inhabits parts of Krakauer's belief system. I think Krakauer is critical of Chris when it comes to Chris's treatment of his family. I think, however, that there are the sensibilities of a kindred spirit going on here that gives us a unique access into Chris's world.

O
a. My brother rode a beautiful big black Friesian horse in the parade.
O
b. My brother rode a beautiful Friesian big black horse in the parade.
O c. My brother rode a big, black, beautiful Friesian horse in the parade
Answer:
The answer is C
Explanation:
Because you can't say beautiful big black Friesian horse or beautiful big black horse .
You can't say beautiful big black Friesian horse or beautiful Friesian big black horse because beautiful has to come in front of the noun which is Friesian horse , beautiful comes in front of Friesian horse cause beautiful is the most important adjective in that sentence even though the words big and black is there and smaller adjectives like Big and Black comes to the front of the line because they are small adjectives
so the order is = smaller adjectives , big adjectives and noun
Hope it helped :)
My brother rode a big, black, beautiful Friesian horse in the parade.
Thus, the correct option is C.
What do you mean by Friesian horse?The Dutch province of Friesland is where the Friesian horse breed first appeared. Despite having a shape similar to a light draught horse, Friesians are graceful and agile for a horse of their size.
Ancestors of Friesian horses are thought to have been in high demand as battle horses throughout continental Europe throughout the Middle Ages. Their size allowed them to transport an armored knight during the Early and High Middle Ages.
In the Late Middle Ages, it was necessary to have heavier, draught-type animals. Despite multiple occasions when the breed was on the verge of extinction, the Friesian horse is now increasingly prevalent and utilized both in harness and under saddle. The breed has most recently been introduced to the dressage discipline.
Although the black coat color of the Friesian breed is the trait most typically used to identify it, this breed can also occasionally have chestnut coats since some bloodlines do possess the "red" gene. Chestnuts and bays were common in the 1930s.
