Sagot :

Answer:

B

Explanation:

B is the only one that connects two sentences.

Answer: I’d say B (I assume the “,” is supposed to be a semicolon since the other answer options have semicolons)

Explanation: For B, you could both say “The coffee pot shut off. I would like another cup.” as well as “The coffee pot shut off, I would like another cup.”, which is where the semicolon comes in.
