Answer:
The missing question is Which sentence from the passage is complex?
The answer is: The panther crept into a cave because it was afraid.
Explanation:
A complex sentence has an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. Independent clauses are the ones that have meaning on their own so, they can stand alone as sentences. On the other hand, dependent clauses can not stand alone; they need the support of another clause to make sense.
In the sentence <em>"The panther crept into a cave because it was afraid."</em> the independent clause is <em>The panther crept into a cave </em>while the dependent clause is <em>because it was afraid</em>. The word "<em>because</em>" is subordinating conjunction since it is a word that connects the two clauses.
Answer:
1. a. diary
2. a. mentally disadvantaged
3. b. the misspellings
4. D. useless
Explanation:
"Flowers for Algernon" tells the story of Charlie, a man who has a problem that leaves him mentally disadvantaged. This problem is a type of disability that leaves Charli mentally inferior to a healthy adult. Charlie's problem is so serious that initially the inkblot tests he was submitted were inconclusive and did not provide any help to his case.
Cahrlie's story is told from his diaries and we can see his difficulty through the numerous spelling mistakes he writes. However, Charlie undergoes surgery and treatment that stimulates improvements in his situation and little by little we see Charlie's writing getting more correct and refined showing that his intellectual capacity is progressing.
