The sentences put together aren't broken and sound well when put together. "My parents and I re moving to a new house at the end of this month. There are many aspects of the place like that. However, one of my favorite things about the house is my new room. The walls are ocean blue with a mural of a surfer. Also, my own bathroom adjoins my surfer's paradise."
Hope this helps! :)
Answer: The right answer is the A) War leaves enduring scars.
Explanation: In the excerpt from this old English poem, the speaker, a shield, is specifically describing its difficult "existence" - an existence of loneliness, sacrifice, courage, hopelessness and lack of recognition. Its wounds are many, and permanent, and they do not heal. It is constantly fighting and is not granted any care, so it never recovers. Much like the shield, those who fight in a war have scars that remain for the rest of their lives.
B. Metaphor.....because English
Answer 4 cannot be it right off the bat, since compound-compound doesn't exist.
If a compound - complex sentence loses the dependent clause, it is no longer complex, since complex sentences require a dependent and to independent clauses conjoined with a comma and conjunction such as "and". So answer 3 can not be it.
So that leaves either simple or compound.
The sentence is still contains an independent clause from when it was compound-complex, therefore answer 2, compound, is the answer.
