Which change should Clair make to correct the punctuation in her sentence?

O 1. Insert a semicolon after the word "dark.

O 2. Delete the comma after the word "nevertheless."

O 3. Insert a semi-colon after the word "camp."

4. Delete the comma after the word "dinner."

The change Clair should make to correct the punctuation in her sentence is:

1. Insert a semicolon after the word "dark".

Explanation:

"Nevertheless" is a conjunctive adverb joining two independent clauses. When we use conjunctive adverbs, we must add a semicolon before them. That includes "however", "moreover", "therefore", and "consequently", for example. Thus, for Clair's punctuation to be correct, we should add the semicolon after "dark", right before "nevertheless".
