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

Rewrite the following sentences or phrases on a separate sheet of paper to make them more direct, more readable, or less wordy.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

"Strike matches on rough surface found on the outside of the box. Do not touch flame, the head of the match, and please keep away from children"

Explanation:

The first two sentences feel like common sense, so I would not include them. The middle sentence is descriptive and I would keep it. The last three sentences can be combined to make the sentence less wordy and read easier. Hope that helps somewhat!
