Answer:

Sentence D is an example of a complex sentence.

Explanation:

A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. The difference between an independent clause and a dependent one is that the former can stand alone as a sentence as it represents a complete thought. The ungrammaticality of sentence A proves this point.  As you can see, without the independent clause (B), the dependent clause (A) does not represent a complete idea, it depends on the main clause to complete its meaning (C).

A) *Because it is cruel

B) The death penalty should be abolished

C) Because it is cruel, the death penalty should be abolished

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The magazine chosen was "Teen Vogue".

Explanation:

After reading some articles written in Teen Vogue magazine, I came to the conclusion that the magazine uses artifices and languages to attract a female audience and, as the magazine's name says, teenagers. This is done through articles that expose fashion trends, teen celebrities and subjects of teen interest such as fashion, dating, vacation, style, travel, personal care, among others.

The magazine uses a colorful look that attracts the attention of its audience, uses a simple and direct language, easily understandable and that does not require major interpretations. In addition, the magazine uses photos and writes articles and interviews of teen celebrities, which are easily identifiable by its target audience.
