The difference between a compound sentence and complex sentence is that a compound sentence has two independent clauses (clauses that could stand alone) and a complex sentence has one independent clause and one dependent clause.
Answer:
Dr. Robinson
Explanation:
This is from the novel- “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” written by Mark Twain in 1884. It is the story of two characters ( Jim and Huck) in an attempt to break free from their past lives.
Huck and Jim meet Duke and Dauphin when they were escaping for their lives. They appealed to them to let them join their canoe.
Duke and Dauphin are manipulative people with low morals. They swindle people of their money, going from place to place and town to town looking for who to deceive. They pretended to be related to the deceased (Peter Wilks) so that they could get money from people.
Dr Robinson warned the people that Duke and Dauphin were not really Harvey and William Wilks as they claimed to be. He also noted their accent and said it was ridiculously phony to be true.
Eliminate passive voice by making the subject do the action. You can shift the focus of the sentence from the direct or indirect object to the actor. For example, you can transform the following sentence from passive to active voice. Passive: The tree was cut down by the man.
