Hello.
1. a. This results in a tension in the art world that is largely unresolved ─ the tension between art as a satisfying mode of expression and art as a precious collectible object, between the experience of making and the experience of owning. (from Korean university entrance exam)
Question 1: My book says that in this sentence, dash is used for the additional information about the former, whole sentence. But I think that it is used for the additional information about only 'a tension'. Am I right?
Question 2 : I think that the comma before the second between is used for avoiding a confusion with the first between. Am I right?
Thank you always~.
