The correct answer is A. My cat likes sleeping in the window and my dog likes sleeping on me.

Explanation:

In writing, the punctuation refers to the use of comma (,), period (.), semicolon (;), colon (:) and others used to separate different element withing a sentence according to strict grammar rules. In the case of the sentence "My cat likes sleeping in the window and my dog likes sleeping on me" this is a compound sentence that integrates two main ideas, the first one is "My cat likes sleeping in the window" and the second one is "my dog likes sleeping on me" and in this case besides using the conjunction "and" to separate both a punctuation mark and more specifically a comma is required as "My cat likes sleeping in the window, and my dog likes sleeping on me". On the other hand, other sentences presented are simples sentences and do not require any punctuation. Therefore it is the first sentence the one that is missing a punctuation mark.

Read the following passage to answer questions

7nadin3 [17]

1. A. strength

The simile that likens his shoulders to a full sail shows the force that must be exerted to plough the field. A "globed" sail would be rounded because of the powerful winds blowing against it. Just as the wind's, resistance is transformed into something useful by moving the boat forwards; his father's exertion transforms the land into fields that grow crops of food. While ploughing the land in this way would certainly require knowledge and skill, the simile does not refer to these qualities.

2. D. "Mapping the furrow exactly" 

Reference to the father's expertise is indicated by his "mapping the furrow" and doing so "exactly."
