Answer:
Simple sentence
Explanation:
Every sentence must contain a subject and a predicate and express a complete thought. Independent clauses contain all of these elements, which is why they can stand alone as sentences. Dependent clauses don't, which is why they can't stand alone.
A simple sentence is a sentence that consists of one independent clause. That is the case in the given example. The subject is <em>he </em>and the predicate is <em>runs after money and wants to enjoy power</em>. Since the sentence has only one subject-predicate pair, it consists of one independent clause. That makes it a simple sentence.
Compound sentences are sentences that consist of at least two independent clauses.
Complex sentences are sentences that consist of one independent clause and at least one dependent clause.
The structure of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Bells" is nowhere near a cinquain or Shakespearean sonnet, since those poetic forms have 5 and 14 lines respectively, while "The Bells" is much longer. The fact that it does not follow a strict verse form makes one think of free verse, but the correct answer is B. "The Bells" is a lyric poem, made up of stanzas and using constant rhyme, which one does not find very often in free verse. Not for nothing was it adapted musically by Sergei Rachmaninoff.
Answer: B.
Explanation: You don't place a semicolon before coordinating conjunctions like "and", "but" or "so." Sentences A and D would be correct <em>without</em> the semicolon, and in sentence C, we should replace it with a comma (which is also an acceptable solution in sentences A and D). Sentence B successfully links two independent clauses that are so related semantically that it's best for them to be in the same sentence.
