Write IN THE BLANK whether each statement is a "dependent or "independent" clause

English
1 answer:
Svet_ta [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1. Independent clause

2. Independent clause

3. Dependent clause

4. Independent clause

5. Dependent clause

Explanation:

An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a sentence. It has all characteristics a sentence must have - it contains a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought. Independent clauses are connected to each other by coordinating conjunctions (e.g. but - <em>But </em><em>I did not speak up for myself</em>).

A dependent clause is a clause that can't stand alone as a sentence. It provides additional information about the independent clause, and without it, the dependent clause doesn't express a complete thought. That's why it can't stand alone. Dependent clauses are connected to independent clauses by subordinating conjunctions (<em>And so</em><em> we left the party, </em><em>So</em><em> she went to the store</em>).

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

To establish the idea that Alfonso cares a lot about how other people see him.

Explanation:

Gary Soto's short story <em>"Broken Chain"</em> tells the story of how a young boy's desire to look handsome and impressing girls consume him into believing he needed to be physically handsome. This story reflects the theme that true beauty is found in the inside, and outside appearances are not worthy to judge an individual's beauty.

The author Gary Soto most likely open the story with the character of Alfonso to establish the idea that Alfonso cares about his appearance and how people will perceive him to be. This is in support of the overall theme that is found throughout the story. The theme of physical beauty is foremost in the development of the story, leading the protagonist to try all means to appear 'presentable' in the eyes of others.
