Vocaloid:

I'm not 100% sure what they are looking for with "natural pause" but B and C are punctuated incorrectly so they can't be the answers

Ultrilliam:

I have moved this question to English

cookiemonster:

are you sure its not b?

Vocaloid:

you can't put an independent clause after a comma, so no

cookiemonster:

ok so then what would it be?

Vocaloid:

I'm not sure

Vocaloid:

imo the ellipse and the colon could both work since the two clauses are related

cookiemonster:

ok thx
