Jules likes to watch comedies, dale prefers to watch dramas. which revision most effectively corrects the comma splice?

Jules likes to watch comedies, but Dale prefers to watch dramas.

Explanation:

A comma splice is the use of a comma to join sentences that were originally independent. Comma splices should be avoided and there are a few ways to do so. One of them is by adding a conjunction such as "and" or "but".

For the question we are answering here, the options were

a) Jules likes to watch comedies, but Dale prefers to watch dramas.

b) With Jules liking comedies, Dales prefers to watch dramas.

c) Jules likes to watch comedies Dale prefers to watch dramas.

d) Jules likes to watch comedies, however Dale prefers to watch dramas.

Options b, c, and d do not solve the comma splice or present a different punctuation problem. Option a, however, uses the conjunction "but" after the comma and establishes a connection between the two sentences.

even though there may be variations in human emotions over time, the poem “ a contribution to statistics” by wislawa symborska suggests that the only unchangeable characteristic is mortality.

the author poses a distinction between the approximate and non-approximate numbers which correspond to our need for certainty in life and the difficulty of achieving it. our efforts to measure the exact often fail because the world is not always clearly structured .the poem seems to imply   that the only thing that is certain and has an exact number is death.
