I will assume that "found sentences" actually refers to "compound sentences".

Answer:

My family and I went to Brazil for the summer holidays. We stayed at a hotel in Rio de Janeiro, and we had a great time. We weren’t able go to the beach on the first couple of days because it was raining. When the rain stopped, however, we couldn’t have enough of the beautiful ocean and light-colored sand. At the beach, there are some “barracas” selling fresh shrimps, but we had to buy them sneakily. Since my father is allergic, we did not want to tempt him into having some as well. I tried to learn how to surf, but it is harder than I had imagined. I hope to go back in the future.

Explanation:

A complex sentence is formed by joining an independent clause and a dependent one. A dependent clause needs the independent one to give it context, so that it makes sense. It does not express a complete thought on its own. The dependent clause is set off by a subordinating conjunction (since, because, when, etc.) The complex sentences in the answer above are all underlined.

A compound sentence is formed by joining two independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction - for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. The compound sentences int he answer above are all in bold.

Yes. You can separate the sentence at “Nearly two years later...” by adding a period after CIA.

What is mean by sympathy and empathy?

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Sympathy involves understanding from your own perspective. Empathy involves putting yourself in the other person's shoes and understanding WHY they may have these particular feelings. In becoming aware of the root cause of why a person feels the way they do, we can better understand and provide healthier options.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

The Supreme Court decision approved the Fifteenth Amendment, stating that any citizen could vote regardless of color, race, or history of servitude.

Explanation:

The texts show that the American Supreme Court decided to approve suffrage for blacks, that is, the Supreme Court decided that it was illegal to prohibit blacks, who were now free citizens, from voting. This gave rise to the fifteenth amendment that declared that every American citizen could vote, regardless of their color, race, or history of servitude.

This moment is reinforced in the second text, where the supreme court prohibits Texas from preventing blacks from voting, saying that this attitude is unconstitutional.

Unclear question. I inferred from only;

Question 9: What connotations would these lines have invoked in the listener of Edward’s sermon “Sinners in the Hands I’d an Angry God” choose two

Answer:

feelings of fear

Explanation:

There are certain expressions in Edward’s sermon that can invoke fear into the minds of listeners. For example when he said;

"There is the dreadful pit of glowing flames of the wrath of God; there is hell's wide gaping mouth open, and you have nothing to stand upon, nor anything to take hold of..."

In effect, his words create a sense of fear for listeners that God is angry towards those Edward calls "sinners".
