First off, a compound sentence is a sentence that contains at least two independent clauses. That tells us <em><u>C</u></em> is out almost immediately because it has a dependent clause, "After Maria finished dinner". Next, is <em><u>B</u></em>, That's a simple sentence, there's no joining method or comma and it only has one subject and one predicate. D isn't right either, it just about the same as <u><em>B</em></u><em />. Your answer would be <em><u>A. Paolo missed his girlfriend, but he knew she'd be back soon.</u></em><u /><u /> This sentence has a joining clause, and two <em>independent </em>subjects.
Hope this helps,
♥<em>A.W.E.<u>S.W.A.N.</u></em>♥
I think you put 3/9, 6/9, and 7/9. Sorry if I’m wrong
I believe the correct answer is <span>C. Sir Gawain stands up to defend his lord against a supernatural being.
Medieval romance doesn't necessarily have to do with romantic feelings of love and desire - it refers to heroic deeds and valiant knights, which is why Sir Gawain and the Green Knight fits perfectly in that description.

<span>The Mayflower brought the group of English settlers now known as the Pilgrims to North America. Leaving England in the fall of 1620, the Pilgrims were attempting to land near the mouth of the Hudson River, but instead ended up in Cape Cod Harbor. Plymouth, the colony established there by the Pilgrims in 1621, became the first permanent European settlement in New England. The story of the Pilgrims and their harvest feast has since become one of best-known in American history, but you may not know it as well as you think.
