A. Dangling modifier.
B. Capitalization.
C. Semicolon.
D. Redundancy.
E. Parallel structure.

Answer 1

Answer: C. Semicolon

Step-by-step explanation:

The semicolon is used to link two independent clauses in a sentence. It can also be used for the introduction of a new sentence with words like therefore, however, etc.

In this question, the semicolon after China isn't appropriate, a comma will have been better in this regard. Therefore, the correct option is C.
