Answer:

b. Compound

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence containing two or more independent clauses with related ideas joined by a semicolon, a comma, or coordinating conjunction such as <em>and, but, so, for, nor, or </em>and<em> yet. </em>

The sentence provided is a compound sentence because it consists of two independent clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction “but.” Besides, we can tell that these clauses are independent because they both express a complete idea on their own.

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Sarcasm indeed can be confusing.

Explanation:

Sarcasm indeed can be confusing to some extent. Sarcasm can be understood as "indirect criticism", what you say manifest exactly the oposite of what you really mean with the comment.

Sarcasm cannot be prevented, it is a very "human" activity due to the high symbolism, and complexities of human interaction, sarcasm is expected to exist in one way or another.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Both texts show people who are unhappy with their situations and willing to face adversity.

Explanation:

The three texts show people marginalized by society, because of their lives and due to society's prejudiced judgment. However, in all texts marginalized people are not willing to bow their heads and accept the unfair treatment that the system and society imposes.

These people are willing to face the adversities of the situation they are in. Even with the fear of failure, they are willing to fight and improve their quality of life, regardless of what society thinks of them, because they know that these things are not true.

Either you or Miguel ______ leading the group.<br> A: are<br> B: is
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Either you or Miguel is leading the group.

Explanation:

When using compound conjunctions - either... or and neither... nor - we tend to feel like using a plural verb, which may be incorrect. Most of the time, the right way to conjugate a verb in sentences with compound conjunctions is in the singular.

<u>Something else that can be confusing in the sentence we are analyzing here is the fact that "either" is followed by "you". As we know, the right verb form for "you" is "are". However, even in this case, we should go with the form "is" because "Miguel" is the closest noun to the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is</u>:

Either you or Miguel is leading the group.

kolezko [41]
President Kenny explicitly stated that African Americans deserve the full rights of a Untied States Citizen. One main example can be the last sentence in the excerpt,"Now the time has come for this nation to fulfill its promise." To simplify, Kenndy is referring to Americans promise for all men to be created equal. Therefore the explicit meaning of this address is for African Americans to receive all of the right they deserve.
