Answer:
The answer is B, a semicolon.
Mr. Gomez made sure we understood fractions; we then began algebra.
Explanation:
A sentence uses a semicolon when it does not have the word "and", "but", "because", etc.
In this example, if it were to say "Mr Gomez made sure we understood the fractions and we then began algebra", It would need a comma.
Because this sentence continues without that word "and", it needs a semicolon. This is because it is two separate sentences within one sentence.
I hope this helps :)

Answer:
D. In Brueghel's Icarus, for instance: how everything turns
Quite worriedly toward the disaster
Explanation:
Brueghel's Icarus refers to a painting made by Pieter Brueghel, which puts the spotlight on the townsmen who were around during Icarus' mythological fall from the sky since he flew too close to the sun. It depicts the indifference of the witnesses, who were busy engaging with their pursuits to bother paying attention to the fact that Icarus had just fallen. Since Auden's poem is written in honor of the painting, (D) would be the best answer if the painting instead depicted the witnesses' concern over what is happening instead of indifference.
It was used as an excuse to create problems
