To the traditional ruler, Aluu-ulu,
DISCARDING OF SHAVING OFF THE HAIR OF A WIDOW
Igweeee! Good day sir.
I write to you with deep pains over the suffering the women in Aluu-ulu community over the years. It has been a custom in our community since I can remember to shave off the hair of widows as a sign of mourning which not only goes against their fundamental human rights but is morally wrong because this shaving is usually done without consent.
I know of a young widow that her hair was shaved against her wishes and because she resisted the evil exercise, she was accused of having a hand in her husband's death and was put through the more barbaric ritual of swearing before an 'oracle' that she was innocent of the charges brought against her. This is a grieving woman that needs all the moral support and encouragement she can get, but no, she was subjected to such sub-human treatment which was totally unacceptable.
Your highness, I strongly believe this custom of shaving the hair of widows in Aluu-ulu community should be stopped and discarded completely.
Yours sincerely,
John Thomas.
Answer:
idiom.
Explanation:
The phrase to smell a rat is an idiom that dates back to the 1500s. To smell a rat means to become suspicious that something in a given situation is not quite right, to believe that someone is attempting to trick you or that the circumstances are not quite right.
If Selma wants to evaluate what went wrong when she tried to make this recipe, she should ask the following question: Did I dissolve the sugar before adding the final three ingredients?
This is the only one of the questions which refers to the specific recipe and the steps Selma should have followed, thus, evaluating what has happened.
<u>Question 1</u> asks about what can be done to improve what has already been done, so it doesn't refer to what has happened but rather to possible future steps that could impove the result.
<u>Question 2</u> tests the recipe but it doesn't assess Selma's performance on this one.
<u>Question 3</u> is irrelevant to the procedure followed as it compares this recipe to her mother's one and not the steps recommended in this recipe to the steps that Selma followed.

Explanation:
The phrases above are two examples of complex phrases that can be found in the text.
A complex sentence is one that is formed by an independent clause and one or two dependent clauses. As you may already know, dependent clauses are those that cannot convey a complete thought on their own and therefore need a complement to make sense, unlike the independent clauses that can conclude a thought and convey a complete meaning without the need for complement.
