Answer:
(1) An author doing research for a book asked thousands of Americans what made them happy.
Explanation:
It's tempting to say that the main idea is the conclusion of the paragraph, which is stated in sentence (5). However, the main focus of the paragraph is more on the research on what makes American happy, which is detailed by the responses of the research subjects, as well as the conclusion of the research study. If (5) was the main focus, there would be more details about why most of the things that make you happy are simple and free or inexpensive or what the general research about this topic has been, instead of just one study in particular.

Everything looks good except the first sentence it should say my family and I
Hello!
This is a simple sentence. It is simple because it only contains one subject and one predicate.
Often times, compound sentences are built up of two simple sentences.
For example, a simple sentence would be "John ate a banana." A compound sentence would be "John ate a banana and he threw away the peel." This is a compound because both "John ate a banana" and "He threw away the peel" are simple sentences that combine with each other to create a compound. The word "and" is used as a conjunction to connect the two simple sentences together.
I hope this helps you!
