The sentence that is punctuated correctly is: D. The swim meet starts in an hour--we need to hurry!

The other options have punctuation issues:

  • A should use a semicolon or a period instead of "..." before "but."
  • B should end with a question mark instead of "..."
  • C should use a comma instead of a dash before "and."
