Assuming the question asks which of the following is found in the sentence, neither A. a dependent clause or C. a subordinating conjunction exist in the sentence, so the only possible answer is B. an independent clause.
"The harsh wind scoured the scant remaining leaves from the trees" ⇒ This is an independent clause because it represents a complete thought.
"<span>a desolate landscape remained in its wake</span>" ⇒ This is also an independent clause.
", and" ⇒ This is a coordinating conjunction, connecting two independent clauses.
hello, i have just taken the test. your answer for part A would be ''the bird would rather fly free'' and for part B it would be ''for he must fly back to his perch and cling''. hope this isnt too late :^
Shirley Jackson told: "the idea for "The Lottery" had come to me while I was pushing my daughter up the hill in her stroller—it was, as I say, a warm morning, and the hill was steep, and besides my daughter, the stroller held the day’s groceries—and perhaps the effort of that last 50 yards up the hill put an edge to the story.”
Explanation:
"The Lottery" is a short story written by Shirley Jackson in which members of a small community join together every year to follow a tradition according to which, randomly, the destiny of one of them is decided. The raffler winner is stoned to the dead to ensure prosperity for the whole village. The title is a clear instance of irony.
Answer:
This sentence contains both an interjection (Wow) and a conjunction (that's). No preposition, however (ex. over, against, about, with).
(Also, there should be a comma after wow lol)
