She turned left, he steered right, and I kept going straight ahead. What is or are the independent clauses?

English
1 answer:
seropon [69]2 years ago

Answer:

All three clauses in the sentence are independent clauses:

1. She turned left

2. he steered right

3. and I kept going straight ahead

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words that can convey a complete thought on its own, being able to stand alone as a sentence. In other words, when you read an independent clause alone, it makes perfect sense.

In the sentence we are analyzing here, three independent clauses were put together, combined with a comma between the firs two, and a comma plus the coordinating conjunction "and" between the final two.

"She turned left, he steered right, and I kept going straight ahead."

If we separate each clause, they will still make perfect sense alone:

1. She turned left

2. he steered right

3. and I kept going straight ahead

How would you describe love? <br> It is like an interview so I need different opinions.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

I view love as an act that you don't do for yourself but for the person the love is directed towards. I have alway believed true love was doing what was best for the other person weather that means what you would be doing would not be something you would want to do ever again. I view love as an international concept. Love can be shown in many different ways. Being strict about rules and other important things can also be "love" because you are doing what best and keeping the person the love is directed to safe.

matrenka [14]

Answer:Jonas learns that releasing is not what he always thought.

Explanation:

"Releasing" as it is used in the book The Giver by Lois Lowry, is something that the society he lives in does with the elders after they have reached a certain age. The citizens are told that they go somewhere else, but in reality the patients are given a serum which in turn kills them silently.
