The answer is A. Because a Question mark is not formal or professional writing it’s just asking a question so I think it’s sorta formal but not formal enough and Aposrope isn’t for writing anyways lastly Semicolon is used for writing but is not formal or professional in any way.

Hope this helped!

A) Exclamation points should not be used in formal or professional writing.

Exclamation points can be viewed as overly emotive. They can have the same effect as overdoing capitals, underlining or emboldened letters. Formal and professional writing punctuation should be clean and simple.

ANSWER: A) exclamation point

Hope this helps! :)
