The correct answer is option (d) "It rained every day of our vacation; nevertheless, we had a wonderful time."
In this sentence, the semicolon is used to separate two independent clauses: "It rained every day of our vacation" and "nevertheless, we had a wonderful time." The semicolon is used instead of a comma to show a stronger separation between the two clauses. Additionally, the comma after "nevertheless" is used to set off an introductory word or phrase.
