A complex sentence is a sentence which contains both an independent and a dependent clause. Having this in mind, the only correct answer is A. As Jake was reading the email from June yet again, the flight attendant coughed gently to get his attention.
Here, the first part of the sentence (up until the comma) is dependent, and the other part following the comma is independent. The other sentences do not have such a structure - all of them are compound, not complex sentences, given that they consist of at least to independent clauses, with no dependent ones.

Is unprogressable a real word?
ruslelena [56]
Well if its a "real word" may depend on dialect, or where your from specifically. There are many words in Texas not really recognized as "real words" like "y'all" or many things like that. Perhaps it is a word somewhere. But I have never heard it. Remember, language is like a liquid, always shifting, and changing.
