A compound sentence is made up of two or more simple sentences joined with a conjunction.

Complex sentences must include at least one dependent clause introduced by a subordinating conjunction or a relative pronoun and an independent clause.

A compound-complex sentence has one complex sentence joined to a simple sentence with a conjunction.

Therefore, the sentence, "because our favorite restaurant was closed, we decided to cook dinner at home." is a complex sentence. This is the correct answer because the dependent clause, "because our favorite restaurant was closed" was introduced by the subordinating conjunction, "because". It also has an independent clause, "we decided to cook dinner at home."

Read the excerpt below and answer the question:
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

What the speaker is suggesting is the means by which she thinks peace, love and reconciliation can be achieved by people, not only with others, but also with themselves. The means she believes are necessary and people would be willing to do, in order to achive these goals, are, first, to bring out from the world of "dreams", or from "sleeping", all those good intentions and good principles, that would become the means of reaching those goals. So she proposes people to open the world of sleeping, of dreams, to bring those good things out into reality. Then she also says that people, if willing to open their entire selves, will be able to allow all those good intentions and actions that are closed up inside, to flow and help them to push their limitations, go beyond those limitations, even release those means, or ways, in which they might try to achieve their final goal of peace making, love making and reconciliation, but which might be wrong. Finally she says that people, who wish to achieve those three goals, are those who are willing to wake, which means, are willing to open up themselves to let all that is good inside, flow out. War is a very complicated matter, and it usually is produced by the greed, and ambition of people, as well as because of the envy that people may have towards one another. But it is possible that if people discovered a little bit more what´s truly within their hearts, which is not all bad, these goals might be achieved.

Read this excerpt from We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March.
Aleks [24]

Answer: to reveal the challenges of social activism

This is the most accurate answer. In this excerpt, the author does not describe a routine action. The event was an anomaly in the lives of African Americans. The author also does not talk about the actions of police forces, as the father gave in without the intervention of the police. Finally, the author does not actually describe the pride the author feels for her father. What the excerpt shows is the challenges of social activism, and the judgement that activists faced when trying to do the right thing.

Which sentence from Washington Irving's short story "Rip Van Winkle" is an example of indirect characterization?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The answer is letter D.

Explanation:

Characterization refers to how the characters in a story are represented by telling or showing a certain feature or description of their personalities or characteristics. There are mainly two types of characterization:<em> direct and indirect.</em>

  • Direct Characterization- the writer <em>tells</em> the character's personality by mentioning direct statements. For example: "She was a brilliant girl." In this case, he is directly telling the reader.
  • Indirect Characterization- the writer <em>shows</em> the character's personality by cumulative details. Examples of this are the thoughts of the character, or the way she dresses.

Among the choices above,<u> it is only letter D which shows indirect characterization.</u> <u>The statement shows what the character thinks about working in the farm, according to what he declared.</u>
