Previewing is a strategy that helps us get the basic understanding of a piece of writing before we start reading it. After previewing a text, we should know how long it is, what genre it belongs to, and what it tells about. The table of contents can help us out a lot in this as it contains the titles and subtitles used to organize the text. This way, we will be able to recall things we already know about the topic we will be reading about.
A complex sentence has one independent clause (the team lost the game decisively) and one or more dependent clauses (Because the star player on the team was injured).
