Question

Rewrite this passage so that it includes at least one compound, complex, or compound-complex sentence.

Answer 1

You should not get up and you should not make dinner. You need to stay in bed because you’re sick. You need to give your body a chance to get well. You will only get better with rest.

This contains a compound and a complex sentence. (NOT compound-complex)
The compound is “You should not get up and you should not make dinner.” The word “and” makes it a compound sentence.
The complex is “You need to stay in bed because you’re sick.” The independent clause is “you need to stay in bed” and the dependent clause is “because you’re sick.”
