Which sentence in this passage correctly uses the semicolon? jane was tired of living an unassuming life; in the suburbs.  she yearned to expand her horizons and travel the length and breadth of the world.  she was also very curious to learn; and have new experiences. just last year, she spent four months learning a foreign language in the hope that a job opportunity abroad would open up to her.  however; all her attempts were in vain.  but, instead of getting dismayed, she put on her bravest face and continued working toward her goal.  she had made up her mind; she was going to travel the world one way or another.

The correct answer is "She had made up her mind; she was going to travel the world one way or another."

Explanation:

The most common use of the semicolon (;) is to separate two independent clauses or sentences that can stand alone and express a complete thought. Besides this, semicolons are used to separate long elements of the same type in lists or before some conjunctions such as however, also, therefore, moreover, etc. In the case of the text presented, the only sentence that includes a correct use of semicolon is "She had made up her mind; she was going to travel the world one way or another" because in this the semicolon is used between the two independent clauses "She had made up her mind" and "she was going to travel the world one way or another", considering each of this contains a subject, verb, and complete idea.
