Answer:
Yes, I have experienced a journey by train several times.
The very first journey was an eye-opener, taking me to new places and new experiences I wouldn't have dreamed or known about. But it was this first experience that led me to discover new places and also allow me to explore and travel more, and by train, too!
Explanation:
My very first train journey was one of the most exciting yet embarrassing events of my life. It was just full of many eye-opening moments that helped me be more knowledgeable about future journeys.
Like all 'firsts', my first train journey was a result of my friends constantly cajoling me to visit them at their holiday home in the hills. Being alone, and unfamiliar with the way, I was nervous and anxious at the same time about what might happen. But as the journey began, I found myself relaxing and even enjoying the ride- the scenery, the ambiance, everything was perfect. Living in cities, this was a welcome break from the busy lifestyle of a city girl. I loved the path that we took, the forests, the 'outskirts' of the cities, the mountains, nature, everything. And from that moment on, I made a point to make a trip by train at least once a year just to get that same feeling all over again.

Complex Sentences-<span> Has one main (or independent) clause and one or more dependent (or subordinate) clauses.</span>
Example:
<span>“I burned dinner but not the cake.”</span>
Answer:
A. The connotation suggests that the narrator is annoyed by indicating that the counselor is being too aggressive in her questioning.
Explanation:
There are two types of meaning a word possesses:
- Denotation - explicit or literal meaning;
- Connotation - an emotional or cultural association that a word carries.
When someone is pushy, they are constantly trying to get something or to make someone do something. Such behavior often makes other people annoyed. So, the narrator is also annoyed, which is confirmed by the second sentence: <em>I didn't realize that thinking about my future could be such a chore</em>.
Thus, the correct option is A.
<span>From the passage "Four

made by those who support appeasement.</span>
