The verb phrase in the sentence above is A. Must bang. It contains a verb, with direct and indirect object. And it is not a subject.

Actually, some of the definitions of verb phrase would say that "must bang on the drums" is the VP.

But in the narrow sense, and if we have to choose, the right answer is A: must bang (it has only verbs in it). In any case we can exclude B and D as Tyler is the subject and is not included. So we could consider A and C and in fact both are (kind of )VP, but C is wrong because it's incomplete, in order to be a VP, it'd need to be "bang on the drums".

We can actually deduce here that the best that describes sentence 1 is: It is a complex sentence.

<h3>What is a complex sentence?</h3>

A complex sentence is actually known to be a sentence that has one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Complex sentences are used when one makes a complete statement but wants to add more information to the main point.

We see here that "When the twins grew up" is a dependent clause while "they continued to fight" is an independent clause.

Thus, this is a complex sentence.

Universal Model School,

Aba.

March 12, 2021.

The Chairman,

Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area,

Aba.

Sir,

PETITION AGAINST THE PLANNED CLOSURE OF OSISIOMA ORPHANAGE HOME

It has come to my knowledge that Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area intends to close down the Osisioman Orphanage Home due to scarcity of funds to continue the smooth running of the orphanage home.

Sir, I wish to remind you that the well-being of the people is the primary responsibility of government. Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area has the highest number of homeless children and orphans in Abia State. Closure of this orphanage implies that these children will be sent out to the street without anyone to carter for them.

The danger of having such massive number of children out on the streets is that they may be turned into criminals by unscrupulous elements in society who seek to exploit the vulnerability of this group of people to achieve their selfish ends.

We are already overwhelmed by the current security challenges in this part of the state, we definitely do not want to create more problems for ourselves by churning out potential hoodlums from this orphanage home.

I beg you sir to rescind your earlier decision and allow the orphanage home to continue in the interest of common good.

Thanks in anticipation of your positive response.

Yours Faithfully,

Jude Njoku
