Question

Read the sentences.

Answer 1

Answer - The open spaces and opportunities for independence appealed to many.

In the sentence above, the individual subjects of the original two sentences (i,e "The open spaces" and "The opportunities for independence") are combined to give a compound subject. They are joined by the coordinating conjunction, "and".

Other coordinating conjunctions that can be used in forming a compound subject are: "or", "neither", and "nor".
