Answer: Jules likes to watch comedies, but Dale prefers to watch dramas.
Explanation:
A comma splice is the use of a comma to join sentences that were originally independent. Comma splices should be avoided and there are a few ways to do so. One of them is by adding a conjunction such as "and" or "but".
For the question we are answering here, the options were
a) Jules likes to watch comedies, but Dale prefers to watch dramas.
b) With Jules liking comedies, Dales prefers to watch dramas.
c) Jules likes to watch comedies Dale prefers to watch dramas.
d) Jules likes to watch comedies, however Dale prefers to watch dramas.
Options b, c, and d do not solve the comma splice or present a different punctuation problem. Option a, however, uses the conjunction "but" after the comma and establishes a connection between the two sentences.
