Answer:
And, after boasting this way of my tolerance, I come to the admission that it has a limit. Conduct may be founded on the hard rock or the wet marshes but after a certain point I don't care what it's founded on. When I came back from the East last autumn I felt that I wanted the world to be in uniform and at a sort of moral attention forever; I wanted no more riotous excursions with privileged glimpses into the human heart. Only Gatsby, the man who gives his name to this book, was exempt from my reaction—Gatsby who represented everything for which I have an unaffected scorn. If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life, as if he were related to one of those intricate machines that register earthquakes ten thousand miles away. This responsiveness had nothing to do with that flabby impressionability which is dignified under the name of the "creative temperament"—it was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again. No—Gatsby turned out all right at the end; it is what preyed on Gatsby, what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams that temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrows and short-winded elations of men.
The answer is C. Hope I helped :)
It is a compound sentence, because this sentence consists of two independent clauses ('the lamp fell over' and '(the lamp) scared the cat"). Simple sentence would have only one independent clause.
The punctuation is fine. Don’t capitalize the word example though
Okay. I hope I'm right with this
1.) Princes is showing ownership so it's princes' rescues is rescue's and dragons is dragon's
2.) Chocolates would be Chocolate's, and again, ownership, mothers is mothers'
3.) You don't put an apostrophe in takes because you don't put apostrophes in verbs. There is no apostrophe in minutes because it's telling how many minutes it takes to get somewhere. Of course in a sentence like, "Let's have a minute's talk," you would place an apostrophe but not in this case. (Not sure about this answer) And suns you would put an apostrophe after the s because it is again showing ownership.
4.) Don't put an apostrophe in lilacs or curtains because grammar rules are weird. But you do put an apostrophe after the s in rooms because it's the rooms charm. The room owns that charm and it's talking about just one room.
Hope this helps. I don't know if everything I've said is right but I've done my best.
