Answer: A) After the ceasefire was declared, the soldiers were allowed to go home.

Explanation:

An independent clause is a clause that expresses a complete thought. It can stand on its own and still make sense. The independent clause in this example is "the soldiers were allowed to go home."

A subordinate clause, on the other hand, is a clause that does not express a complete thought. It cannot stand alone, because it has no meaning if not joined to an independent clause. "After the ceasefire was declared" is a subordinate clause.

All the other options contain two independent clauses - in option B, they are connected with a semicolon; in option C, with a conjunction "so"; in option D, with a comma and a conjunction "and."

How does the poem's stylistic form (i.e. punctuation

Explanation:

The poem ''We grow accustomed to the dark” is written by Emily Dickinson whose unusual style innovative use of phrases and punctuation are very much a part of her poetic language as much as her own words.

This poem too is no different as the hyphens here do not really connect the lines together as much as create and uncomfortable distance.

The poem says that the people who are accustomed to dark have also found themselves so dejected they are now almost at a distance from their feelings.

finlep [7]

Answer:

This Sunday, my family, which consist of my parents, my brothers, and me, arrive at the Church. We all climb out of our minivan, all with a Bible in our hands. We sit down on the chairs, the wooden pews. Today we open our Bible to learn about how Jesus suffered for humanity. The shepard, our pastor, walks up to stand and greets us. After around 2 hours, we were set off. It was such a good lesson, today. I can't wait until we go next Sunday.

I hope this helps!
