Classify below as simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex :

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

I believe the best classification for the sentence is compound-complex.

Explanation:

A compound-complex sentence is comprised of two independent clauses and one dependent one. Let's remember that an independent clause is one capable of expressing a complete thought on its own. A dependent clause, on the other hand, does not express a complete thought. Instead, it depends on the main clause to make sense. When we join independent clauses, we use coordinating conjunctions. When we introduce a dependent clause, we use a subordinating conjunction. Let's take a look at our sentence:

Because they provide toys for children, fast food restaurants like McDonald's have become immensely popular among families, and the price of a Happy Meal makes them a great choice for parents as well as kids.

Notice that we have two independent clauses that can express a complete thought on their own:

1. fast food restaurants like McDonald's have become immensely popular among families

2. the price of a Happy Meal makes them a great choice for parents as well as kids

Those two clauses are joined by a comma and the coordinating conjunction "and":

-- fast food restaurants like McDonald's have become immensely popular among families, and the price of a Happy Meal makes them a great choice for parents as well as kids.

Prior to the first independent clause, we have a dependent one, introduced by the subordinating conjunction "because". Notice how it does not make complete sense on its own:

3. Because they provide toys for children

There is information missing. But, when we place together it with the main clauses, it makes sense:

Because they provide toys for children, fast food restaurants like McDonald's have become immensely popular among families, and the price of a Happy Meal makes them a great choice for parents as well as kids.

Answer:

“At the same time, the FBI and the Federal Communications Commission conducted separate investigations of the Japanese living in America.” “Alarmed at the enemy’s swift advance through the Pacific, military officials suggested that Japan might try to invade the west coast of America and that maybe the Issei and the Nisei who lived there would aid the invasion.” “Although the charge of Japanese sabotage on Hawaii was totally false, newspaper writers and radio broadcasters began warning of the danger of Japanese sabotage on the west coast.” “Japanese books and magazines were burned because of a rumor that FBI agents had found such materials in the homes of Issei arrested on suspicion of sabotage."

This is an optional writing question. But, if you can't figure out what to write about i suggest maybe a fictional story about "your" dying dog and you saved its life. Something easy and believable.
