Answer:

brittle

Explanation:

<em>Brittle </em>means hard but liable to break into small pieces or burst.

In the passage from Ray Bradbury's "Farenheit 451," Montag, who feels ill and has temperature, describes his wife as he is lying in bed. Thus, he makes reference to her thin hair, her eyes, lips and body. The reason why he did not feel alright is that previous night, he and his team of firefighters burnt down a woman's house with her books, one of which he stole and hid under his pillow. Besides, Mildred told him that her neighbor Clarisse had been killed and that her family had moved away, which also hurt Montag and now makes him question his job and the reason why books are burnt.

(Which is my favorite sport) how do I put this in a complex sentence
asambeis [7]

Answer:

If you need a sentence of your own, you can use this clause <em>Which is my favorite sport</em> as a non-restrictive relative clause to give some additional information about a sport. For example,

Cycling, which is my favorite sport, has never been absent from the Olympic program.

Explanation:

A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.

A dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb. It does not express a complete thought, so it is not a sentence and can't stand alone.

<em>Which is my favorite sport</em> is a dependent clause as it cannot stand as a sentence by itself.

So you need to add an independent clause to have a complex sentence.

<em>Cycling has never been absent from the Olympic program</em> is an independent clause. You add your clause <em>which is my favorite sport</em> simply  to give some additional information about cycling.
