Problem 9 - Entrance Test

Choose the sentence that uses a semicolon correctly.

Correct: D

A semicolon is correctly used to join two independent clauses that are closely related, especially when the second clause is introduced by a conjunctive adverb (like 'for example,' 'however,' 'therefore'). In option D, 'for example' introduces an elaboration on the preceding independent clause, making the semicolon appropriate.
