Answer:

It is a complex sentence.

Explanation:

There are  four basic types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex.

A complex sentence has one independent clause joined to a dependent clause by a subordinating conjunction.

An independent clause has a subject and a predicate, and can stand alone as a sentence, as it makes complete sense.  A dependent clause cannot stand alone.

In this case, "Kenneth sat down on the rickety old chair" is an example of an independent clause.  "as it abruptly collapsed beneath him" is a dependent clause.

If you say to your significant other, "I see you didn't put gas in my car after borrowing it", the relationship level of meaning
Sati [7]

Answer:

- You don't respect me .

- You are too lazy to refill the gas tank.

Explanation:

'Relationship level of meaning' is associated with the connotative meaning which is intended to be displayed by the speaker which is contrary to the content level meaning that reflects the literal or explicit meaning of the message. 'Relationship level' of meaning reflects the type of relationship shared by two people.

According to the description given, the relationship level of meaning would involve 'you don't respect me' and 'You are too lazy to refill the gas tank' which implies that the speaker shows his/her authority(implied by 'you don't respect me') and at the same time, the remarks('you are too lazy..') reflect that he well knows the person he/she is communicating with. This implies that the two share a positive bond.
