Answer:

A. The aunt thinks that the content of the story was too graphic for the children,  but the bachelor disagrees.

Explanation:

The short story "The Storyteller" by Saki tells the story of a train journey where three small children along with their aunt were on a train to Templecombe. Beside them in the same compartment was a young bachelor who seemed less than impressed to be in the same compartment with the group.

In an attempt to distract and quieten the children, the bachelor ended up telling a story of a<em> "very good girl"</em> who was devoured by a wolf. Though the children were able to be good and <em>"quiet for ten minutes"</em>, a feat which the bachelor insist the aunt wasn't able to do, the aunt exclaimed that it was too graphic for them to be told that story. the gory details, the ending which resulted in the good girl dead, and the medals for being good leading to her death all were the many topics that the aunt had most presumably tried hard to swerve the children away from learning. In her opinion, she wanted to teach them only good things and not something as graphic as the young man had just done. This causes conflict between the two adults.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Incomplete question. Here are the options that complete the question;

A. Some cartmen tried to overcharge people who needed help.

B. People hurried away from the fire in large, chaotic groups.

C. Many people were unable to carry their belongings on their own.

D. Some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>D. Some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, after the narrator had stated that some cartmen demanded up to $150 for carrying a single load, the narrator stated, <em>"</em><u><em>some cartmen </em></u><em>worked for </em><u><em>whatever the sufferers felt able to pay.</em></u><em>" </em>

Indeed, cartmen are ordinary people, and to act heroically also involves showing human sympathy. Thus, <em>since some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay, it becomes evident that ordinary people can act heroically in difficult times.</em>

Convert the following sentence from compound to complex sentence.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

As much as water is an endangered resource, we cannot live without it.

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence that has two independent clauses, meaning there should be a conjunction to connect the two clauses (FANBOYS) or a semicolon.

A complex sentence has one independent clause and one dependent clause.

Note that independent clauses can stand alone as a sentence, meaning they have both a subject and a predicate.

On the other hand, a dependent clause can not stand alone as a sentence, has both a subject and verb, and will most often start with a subordinating conjunction.

<u>We have the sentence:</u>

Water is an endangered resource and we cannot live without it.

<u>We can make it:</u>

As much as water is an endangered resource, we cannot live without it.

As much as is the subordinating conjunction that makes the first clause dependent.

"We cannot live without it" is the independent clause.

You can remove "As much as" and replace it with any subordinating conjunction that makes sense, it's just hard to find a perfect replacement for the conjunction "and."
