How does the author describe Delia’s character? Why is establishing this important to the story

English

Karolina [17]3 years ago

It seems that Delia, a “habitually meek” character, as is stated in the story, has endured years of domestic abuse from her husband, Sykes. She works tirelessly to take care of the family, with little, if any, input from him, and instead of being appreciative of her efforts, he beats and bullies her without end. I believe that Delia has always been a fighter.  For fourteen of the fifteen years of their marriage, Sykes has beaten his wife, but still she stayed, even though she was supporting him.  If her work taking in laundry has enabled her to keep her house, it's safe to assume she could have survived without Sykes in the house.

nydimaria [60]

In ancient Greece, Ptolemy asserted that the earth was at the center of the universe. The sun, moon, planets, and stars all revolved around it.  

This is another compound complex sentence due to the complexity it has. It contains one dependent clause and two independent clauses.

So the answer is letter D compound complex.
