Answer 1

The correct answer is A (NO CHANGE).

The original sentence reads: "Carrara marble—which has been quarried for over two thousand years,_ has had many famous applications, including the Pantheon and Michelangelo's David."

The em dash (—) is correctly placed to indicate a break in thought, and the underscore (_) appears to be an error or typo. Therefore, the original wording with the em dash is appropriate and should remain unchanged.

The other choices either replace or incorrectly punctuate the break in the sentence, so they are not suitable replacements. Thus, the best answer is A (NO CHANGE).
