The answer would be D. "I made just one request for the camping trip: I wanted to stay in a cabin instead of a tent."

Generally colons are used after phrases that are complete sentences. "I made just one request for the camping trip" is a complete sentence, and should therefore have a colon after it.

D) I made just one request for the camping trip: I wanted to stay in a cabin instead of a tent.

Colons are used between two independent clauses to show that the second sentence is explaining the first sentence.

An Open Boat by Alfred Noyes See - quick - by that flash, where the bitter foam tosses,
 The cloud of white faces, in the black open boat,
 The literary device used in these lines is personification to give the foam a human quality.

Through the characterization of sea as humanistic, animalistic and deistic, Crane profoundly believes that the sea is indifferent to human’s plight. Narrator describes the development of sea as earlier it “snarls, hisses, and bucks like a bronco” and later it purely “paces to and fro,”. This depicts that the sea can be both hurtful and helpful, sea doesn’t change its motivation in the light of men’s struggle nor it can be understood.
