Answer:  Compound

THE 4 SENTENCE STRUCTURES

<span>The simple sentence is one of the four basic sentence structures. The other structures are the compound sentence, the complex sentence, and the compound-complex sentence.</span>

<span> <span>Simple sentence: I purchased a tour guide and a travel journal at the bookstore.</span> </span>

a simple sentence is a sentence with only one independent clause.

<span> <span>Compound sentence: I purchased a tour guide and a travel journal, but the bookstore was out of maps.</span> </span>

a compound sentence can be thought of as two (or more) simple sentences joined by a conjunction and/or an appropriate mark of punctuation.

<span> <span>Complex sentence: Because I was planning to visit Tokyo, I purchased a tour guide and a level journal.</span> </span>

 a complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause (or main clause) and at least one dependent clause. Put another way, a complex sentence is made up of a main clause with one or more dependent clauses joined to it with an appropriate conjunction or pronoun.

<span> <span>Compound-complex sentence: While Mary waited, I purchased a tour guide and a travel journal at the bookstore, and then the two of us went to dinner. </span> </span>

a compound-complex sentence is a sentence with two or more independent clauses and at least one dependent clause<span>. Also known as a complex-compound sentence.</span>

Identify the following sentence as simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex.
<span>The store is usually open by now, but the owners may be on vacation, or maybe they're just late today.</span>

Which sentence shows the best placement for the modifier “that was on sale”?
Helen [10]

Answer:

The sentence that shows the best placement for the modifier "that was on sale" is the following one: Sheila bought soap that was on sale at the farmer's market.

Explanation:

A relative clause is a subordinate clause which specifies or gives information about a person or thing. In this case, the relative clause, <em>that was on sale, </em>gives further information regarding the noun <em>soap.</em> What is more, this relative clause is considered essential because it provides necessary information with respect to the noun it refers. If it was dropped, the sentence would not have the same meaning (see 1).

1) Sheila bought soap at the farmer's market

Sheila bought a particular soap, the soap which was on sale, not any soap. With the information included in the relative clause, the reader can identify which soap Sheila bought.
