2. What happens when dreams leave? *

Does anyone knows some tips and tricks to identify if a sentence is a simple compound, complex, or a compound-complex sentence??

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

A simple sentence is the type of sentence that has at least one subject and one predicate. It has only one independent clause and it cannot be divided into smaller units.

e.g. I saw her yesterday at the bus station.

A compound sentence consists of two or more independent clauses that are bringing together similar ideas. This type of sentence can stand alone as a complete, separate thought, and contains a certain coordinator as for, and, or, but, yet, so, etc.

The main difference between compound and the complex sentences is the fact that complex sentences contain an independent clause and one dependent clause, which doesn't express a complete, separate thought and it cannot stand alone.

Find the example of the compound sentence below:

e.g. Hannah likes to travel, and she is going on the trip on Monday.

In this case, we have one compound sentence, composed of two independent clauses, joined with the coordinator and:

1. Hannah likes to travel

2. She is going on a trip on Monday.

As we said before, complex sentence consists of one independent clause (that can stand alone) and one dependent clause (that cannot stand alone). One clause represents related thoughts, while the other clause represents the base of the sentence.

e.g. My boyfriend smiled when he saw me.

My boyfriend smiled = independent clause

when he saw me = dependent clause

Compound-complex sentence consists of two independent clauses and at least one dependent clause.

e.g. Jane doesn't like chocolate because it is too sweet, so she doesn't eat it.

Jane doesn't like chocolate = independent clause

Because it's to sweet = dependent clause

She doesn't eat it = independent clause

What does this passage most clearly convey about Lady Bracknell? She believes strongly in the importance of rules. She is thrill

Hello. You forgot the text to which this question refers. The text is:

Lady bracknell. [with a shiver, crossing to the sofa and sitting down.] i do not know whether there is anything peculiarly exciting in the air of this particular part of hertfordshire, but the number of engagements that go on seems to me considerably above the proper average that statistics have laid down for our guidance. i think some preliminary inquiry on my part would not be out of place. –the importance of being earnest, oscar wilde

Answer:

She believes strongly in the importance of rules.

Explanation:

In the text above we can see that Lady Bracknell is a very methodical person who likes everything to happen in a controlled way, always respecting the rules that were stipulated for them. This can be confirmed at the moment when she complains that the occurrence of events in the city is higher than what was shown by the statistics, which serve as a rule, to guide people.

Read the below Abstract. Summarize it using 5-7 sentences.

Korvikt [17]

While low-carbohydrate diets have become increasingly popular as a potential, more effective method of weigh loss that has, as well, other health benefits, doctors believe, based on the available research literature, that these diets carry potential long-term health risks. The research literature indicates: first, that this type of diet is highly effective for short-term weight loss but the long-term effectiveness is not significantly greater than other diets: that the extra health benefits are unknown so far, and finally, that there is higher potential for negative health outcomes due to an increased consumption of saturated fat. More research is needed, but this three points seem to conclude on the importance of following a balanced, moderate diet appropiate for the individual.

In paragraph 4, what reasons does Justice Thurgood Marshall give for his view that the first three words of the Preamble are evi

Firlakuza [10]

Justice Thurgood Marshall looks at the first three words, “We the people,” as evidence that the Constitution is not static and is, in fact, developing/changing with the times. For instance, Justice Thurgood Marshall says that “We the people” did not actually mean everybody when it was written. The words “We the people” actually excluded African Americans, Native Americans, women, and even whites if they did not own land. However, the words "We the people" eventually evolved to mean <em>all</em> United States citizens regardless of heritage, gender, class, etc. Thus, this is evidence that the Constitution evolves with time with the nature of the nation for which it was written.
