Which sentences in this excerpt from Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens reflect the author's satirical tone? "Goodness gracious! Is

that you, Mr. Bumble, sir? " said Mrs. Mann, thrusting her head out of the window in well-affected ecstasies of joy. "(Susan, take Oliver and them two brats upstairs, and wash 'em directly.)—My heart alive! Mr. Bumble, how glad I am to see you, sure-ly! " Now, Mr. Bumble was a fat man, and a choleric; so, instead of responding to this open-hearted salutation in a kindred spirit, he gave the little wicket a tremendous shake, and then bestowed upon it a kick which could have emanated from no leg but a beadle's. "Lor, only think," said Mrs. Mann, running out,—for the three boys had been removed by this time,—"only think of that! That I should have forgotten that the gate was bolted on the inside, on account of them dear children! Walk in sir; walk in, pray, Mr. Bumble, do, sir. " Although this invitation was accompanied with a curtsey that might have softened the heart of a church-warden, it by no means mollified the beadle. "Do you think this respectful or proper conduct, Mrs. Mann," inquired Mr. Bumble, grasping his cane, "to keep the parish officers a waiting at your garden-gate, when they come here upon porochial business with the porochial orphans? Are you aweer, Mrs. Mann, that you are, as I may say, a porochial delegate, and a stipendiary? "

That I should have forgotten that the gate was bolted on the inside, on account of them dear children! Walk in sir; walk in, pray, Mr. Bumble, do, sir. "  This is satirical in the sense that Mrs, Mann called to Mr Bumble to come in, but the gate was locked.  In a way that we as readers could assume that Mrs. Mann wasn't keen in letting Mr. Bumble in. and she curtsied when she opened the gate.</span>

5. <u>Until she had her accident</u>, Harriet Quimby was considered an excellent pilot.

Explanation:

The given sentences are examples of complex sentences - sentences that consist of one independent clause and at least one dependent (subordinate) clause.

Independent clauses are clauses that can stand alone as sentences. Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Subordinate clauses can't stand alone as sentences because they lack at least one of these elements. Their purpose is to provide additional information about what is stated in the independent clause.
