The playwright Lorraine Hansberry’s 1959 play, A Raisin in the Sun, depicts the experiences of the Younger family, who have recently moved into a predominantly white neighborhood. The play is significant because it explored themes of race, class, and the American Dream. The play’s title is from a line in a Langston Hughes poem, and the idea of "a raisin in the sun" is a metaphor for something that has potential but is being stifled and suppressed. Hansberry’s play is considered to be a groundbreaking work that helped to change the way that race and class were portrayed in American theater.

Which choice best corrects the punctuation error in the passage?

Correct Answer:

The semicolon after "Dream" is incorrect because it is used to connect two independent clauses; however, the second clause is not independent. The second clause is a dependent clause modifying the noun phrase "play’s title" and should be separated from the main clause with a comma. The correct punctuation is in choice D.

“They Just Want to Be Held”: My Life as a Professional Cuddler

April 2, 2026

I never thought I’d get paid to cuddle strangers. And yet, here I am—27 years old, pursuing a career in a completely unrelated field by day, and offering platonic touch therapy by night. It’s unconventional. It’s intimate. And it’s more emotionally complicated than I expected.

People hear “professional cuddler” and assume the worst. That it’s some sort of thinly veiled sex work. That it’s transactional, or even predatory. But I can say—unequivocally—it’s neither of those things. It’s a job rooted in connection, boundaries, and the simple, aching human need to be held.
