Answer:

For seven nights he sneaks into the old man's room and watches the sleeping man.

Explanation:

The narrator himself gives the reason why he only killed the old man on the eighth night. He had been visiting his room at midnight for seven nights in a row expecting to see the old man's wasted eye open.

The best answer is the first option: 
<span>For seven nights, he sneaks into the old man’s room and watches the sleeping man.

A good  way to select the right answer is to read all of the options out loud. Which combination of the sentences sounds the most fluid and logical when you read it, and best preserves the meaning of the sentence? The first option does this best. </span>

In a compound sentence, the comma is placed _[blank]_ the independent clause and _[blank]_ the coordinating conjunction.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Your answer would be D.

Explanation:

A compound sentence joins two or more independent clauses with a coordinator such as and, for, but, or a semi-colon. Independent clauses are made up of two phrases that can stand alone as a complete thought. They are not dependent upon one another, but they put together similar ideas. What is more, they contain three things: a subject, an action, and a complete thought (take 1).

1) I like reading, and I'm buying a new book on Friday

In the sentence above, you can see that the comma is placed after the independent clause (I like reading) and before the coordinating conjunction (and).
