Answer:
Explanation:
n Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, the theme of appearance vs. reality is a prevalent one, and Boo is a perfect example of this theme—as is Tom Robinson, at least as far as the townspeople are concerned.
When Atticus decides to defend Tom Robinson for allegedly raping Mayella Ewell, the townspeople are angry. They anticipated that Tom would have a lawyer, but not one that would defend a man that most of them believe raped a white woman. Because Tom is black, he is guilty before he steps into the courtroom—as seen by the lynch mob that shows up at the jail while Atticus sits outside with a light, chair and newspaper. The mob has made up its mind that Tom is guilty, and they do not need a court trial to carry out the sentence they believe he should serve: to be hanged until dead.
"He in there, Mr. Finch?" a man said.
"He is," we heard Atticus answer, "and he's asleep. Don't wake him up."...
"You know what we want," another man said. "Get aside from the door, Mr. Finch."

Sorry I couldn't answer the rest...please correct the answers above if I'm wrong!! :)
A compound sentence is at least two independent clauses that have related ideas for ex. I like soccer, (1 clause) and he likes basketball. (2 clause)
A simple sentence is only one independent clause for ex. The report is complete. (1 clause)
A run on sentence is two or more clauses. The sentence is crowded no stopping periods just commas. For ex. The corporation is packed with goods and services, and the goods are produced daily, customers love our products, sales and profit rise- more competition.
1. Your correct it is a compound sentence because there is at least two independent clauses and most importantly the ideas are related. "Jan went on a quiz show, (1) won two hundred dollars, (2) and bought gifts for her family."
2. The museum was crowded, but our group was able to see everything.(1) after the comma you count each sentence to see how many clauses. After the comma in this sentence there is only one clause so the answer is simple sentence
3. My puppy is well-trained; he call sit and speak. Semicolons are only used to complete a sentence.
As a matter of fact, as long as the sentence has one clause then the sentence is automatically a simple sentence. Semicolons are used to complete a sentence so they don't produce another clause. That is a simple sentence.
As long as you count the sentence after the comma(s) you can determine if it is a compound sentence- all related information 1, 2 or even 3 clauses, a simple sentence only 1 clause- supporting punctuation (semicolons) doesn't affect the sentence, and run on sentence heavy info in just 1 sentence with many commas.
Hope this sheds some light :)
Answer:
The author of "Code Talkers” supports the idea that the code talkers were essential to America’s war effort by:
B. highlighting the complexity of the Navajo language the code talkers used.
Explanation:
In "Code Talkers", Joseph Bruchac highlights the use of Native American languages as codes during the war. More specifically, he gives special attention to the Navajo language because of its complexity. The other languages could be more easily learned by German and Japanese students, who could then break the codes and relay messages to their countries. On the other hand, the Navajo language was so difficult that almost no one that was a non-Navajo could speak it. That made it much harder to break codes that used the Navajo language.
