Which analysis of the passage is correct? 1. it contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

It contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence.

Explanation:

The passage you were given is the following:

All the students signed a petition, but they still needed the faculty's permission to start the club. The students came to the next faculty meeting, and they presented a solid argument. All of their hard work paid off because the students won their campaign.

The options you were given are:

  • It contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence.
  • It contains one compound sentence and two complex sentences.
  • It contains three compound sentences.
  • It contains three complex sentences.

An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a sentence. Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Unlike independent clauses, dependent clauses can't stand alone because they lack at least one of these elements.

A compound sentence is a sentence that consists of at least two independent clauses connected by a comma, conjunction, or semicolon.

A complex sentence is a sentence that consists of one independent clause and at least one dependent clause.

Based on this information, we can conclude that the given passage contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence. The first two sentences are compound sentences. Each of them consists of two independent clauses. The third one is a complex sentence that consists of one independent and one dependent clause.

Write a dairy and behalf of the elderly grandmother describing her feeling of not living with her children and grandmother.
Monica [59]

Answer:

Dear diary,

I'm here once again, because you seem to be the only one I'm able to talk to whenever I want to, and you don't wait impatiently so you can go back to other things you're doing.

However, I miss my children and grandchildren and wish they visited more often, seeing as everyone went on their own way, as soon as they turned 18 or just after College.

I have a considerable sum of money, but I don't have happiness, I have happiness, but not the type I want. I guess he people that said money doesn't buy happiness were right after all.

Diary, you'll have to endure the ramblings of an old woman who is lonely. We'll talk again soon.

What is Steinbeck’s point of view about national parks? How is this point of view conveyed in the text?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

According to Steinbeck he described the national parks is no representative of America than in Disneyland. he also talks about the idleness or inactivity of the park, for which he has nor visited for sometime.

Explanation:

John Steinbeck's described his point of view on national parks as follows: I must confess to a idleness of issues of National Parks.  

I haven't visited many of them. perhaps this is because they enclose the spectacular, the unique, the astounding the greatest waterfall, the highest cliff, the deepest canyon, the most stupendous works of nature or man. also I would rather see a good Brady photograph than Mount Rushmore.  

For it is my view that we celebrate and enclose the freaks of our civilization and of our nation. Yellowstone National Park is does not represent America than is Disneyland.

The point of view conveyed in this text was that,The National Park System as a whole illustrates the scope of America, and as such they are representative of America. yes, it can appear freaky when a circle of built in seats are laid out around a geyser for people shuttling in for periodic eruptions.  

But when you experience a park for what it is, it feels nothing of such, but yes it does feel extraordinary.
