Which of the following sentences uses a colon correctly?

English
2 answers:
Tomtit [17]2 years ago

The correct answer is C. The first example cannot be correct because the colon simply doesn't fit there - a comma would fit better. The second one is also incorrect as you don't need to put a colon after every word, just once before the first word. The last example also doesn't need a colon, you can just enumerate these various states without the use of colon. So naturally, we are left with only one option, and that is C.

C shows the correct use of the colon.   After the colon you may express a list.

You might question why D is not correct too.
It is not correct because the colon is not needed in that sentence.  You are stating the four states you visited, not expressing them as a list.

Kay [80]

The correct option is: <em>the reader could set his or her own pace and reread parts for clarity.</em>

When we read a text, we are able to do it in <em>our own pace</em>, <em>managing our time</em>, and <em>reading again</em> the parts we could not understand the first time.

On the other hand, <em>listening to audios</em> (or watching videos) can easily <em>affect our emotional perception</em> about a particular theme.
