Which of the following correctly uses a semicolon? My cat; never likes to go to sleep in her cat bed. She stays up all night; making growling noises. It is impossible to sleep; with her running around. Cats can be crazy at night; the moon can set them off.

I am thinking C

Google says "A semicolon is most commonly used to link (in a single sentence) two independent clauses that are closely related in thought. When a semicolon is used to join two or more ideas (parts) in a sentence, those ideas are then given equal position or rank."

Try to remove the semicolons in all of the statements, if they make sense without the semicolons, then it's incorrect. If they don't make sense without the semicolons, you found your answer.

So it would be D?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Yes!
