The answer is D. “'I expect it was the spaniel...'”
U can tell because this is the sentence that starts and contributes the most to the humor in this short story . I hope i helped!! GOOD LUCK :D
Can I know what poem or short story these lines are from?
Answer:
C
Explanation:
C is the main theme of this story, for the reason of it providing multiple clues of text evidence throughout the passage that leads back to option C. Therefore, option C should be your answer.
Well, let's see... I don't know what a coordinating conjunction is off the top of my head, but I know B isn't the answer, since 'independent' means 'highly capable of handling oneself'. C <em>certainly</em> isn't the answer, simply because you can see by this answer they obviously do combine with a dependent clause from time to time. That leaves us with D and A, which both leave the same term. However, I do believe I can use the word preceding <em>conjunction</em>, which is <em>coordinating</em>, to realize that 'and,' 'but,' and 'or' are coordinating conjunctions. Seriously, D cannot be the answer because not every sentence starts with any of those. So your answer is A.
