Which is the best way to correct: “The trip was cancelled, we stayed home.”?
A. The trip was cancelled we stayed home.
B. The trip was cancelled; we stayed home.✓ 答案
C. The trip was cancelled, and but we stayed home.
D. The trip was cancelled. We stayed home, however we were sad.
解說
B 用分號正確分隔兩個完整句子,是修正 comma splice 的標準做法。A 直接連寫更錯,C 連接詞重複,D 又把 however 當連接詞(however 是副詞,前面應加分號或句號)。
