Question

Which sentences take the compound form? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer:

All of the children were excited for the trip, and the adults were prepared.

We all wanted to go to the pool, but we knew it was not a good idea.

Due to the frequency of the lightening, the children were asked to leave the pool, and the fun was spoiled.

Explanation:

Compound sentences are formed when two complete sentences are made one through FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) and the use of a comma.

• All of the children were excited for the trip. The adults were prepared.
• Turn the period into a comma, and add a FANBOY after it.
• All of the children were excited for the trip, and the adults were prepared.
• REMEMBER: You must have two COMPLETE sentences for it to work.
