规则
A semicolon joins two complete, closely related sentences. Both sides of a semicolon must be able to stand alone.
分号连接两个关系密切的完整句子,分号两边都必须能独立成句。
✔ 正确: Bees pollinate crops; without them, harvests would fall.
✘ 错误: Bees pollinate crops; which helps farmers.
→ 改正: Use a comma: "Bees pollinate crops, which helps farmers."
技巧: Treat a semicolon like a period. If one side is not a complete sentence, the semicolon is wrong.
