B: ;

A semicolon is the best choice for this sentence. The first half of the sentence "Jonathan was not particularly hungry" is a complete idea. The second half of the sentence "he spent the meal picking at the food on his plate" is also a complete idea. When joining two complete ideas, a comma is not enough punctuation. It needs to have a conjunction as well. A semicolon is enough punctuation by itself and should not be paired with a coordinating conjunction.

One critic called wiesel "part conscience...and part warning signal." how is that appropriate?

irinina [24]

The truth for this is that Wiesel is like a conscience,reminding people of the evil of persecuting others. Also he acts as a warning signal because he is cautioning others to be on guard against intolerance.It is then more than fitting to call wiesel part conscience and part warning signal.
