Answer:

A. Add a semicolon and main clause it reminded me of a story I once read after ledge.

Step-by-step explanation:

New compound sentence.

"Long strands of ivy curled around the window ledge; it reminded me of a story I once read."

A compound statement is full on its own, but it becomes more significant when joined.

Even though each part of a compound sentence could stand on its own, putting them together gives the sentence more meaning.
