Please help! Which of the following is an example of a complex sentence?
A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence, but a dependent clause even though it has a subject and a verb cannot stand alone. Which of the following is an example of a complex sentence.
1. Nadia was delighted she got a part in the school play, even though the part was a small one.
2. Nadia was delighted she got a part in the school play and she didn't mind that it was a small one.
3. Nadia was delighted she got a part in the school play, though she knows it's a small one.
Nadia was delighted she got a part in the school play, though she knows it's a small one.
Explanation :- Sentence have a Principal and a Subordinate clauseSo, this sentence is a complex sentence
Answer: Nadia was delighted she got a part in the school play, though she knows it's a small one.
Explanation: A complex sentence is a sentence with 1 independent or 1 ore more dependent clauses, and a subject verb that can't stand alone, like you said.
Some complex sentences have keywords.
Keywords like: As, as if, before, after, because, though, even though, and so on. ("So on" isn't a keyword)
Complex sentences make sense; They have a complete sentence, and a subject + verb.
That being said, we can look back at the sentences and identify the subject, verb and keyword.
All of that being said, Number 3 is a complex sentence.
Number 3 is a simple sentence, meaning it has a independent clause.
Independent clause: Nadia was delighted she got a part in the school play.
This is what gets students confused. A independent clause MUST CONTAIN A SUBJECT AND A VERB.
Subject: School play.
Verb: School.
Hence, number 3 is a complex sentence.

Which strategy is best for the negative position to use to create a strong rebuttal against the affirmative position?
explaining that the tax will not make a significant difference in the amount of plastic waste
presenting the idea that the improved environment is worth the extra taxes and asking a follow-up question
explaining that the source used by the affirmative position is unreliable and suggesting an alternative source
presenting the plastic-tax argument in a different way by stating that it would be an unnecessary burden for people
Answer: Explaining that the source used by the affirmative position is unreliable and suggesting an alternative source
Explanation:
This statement will create a rebuttal against the affirmative position because it is referring to that affirmative position is something that cannot be taken seriously.
This negative constatation will make an affirmative position untrustworthy and invalid so it is telling the people that that kind f position cannot be one of the options at the start.Other statements are also having a negative position but not enough to eliminate the affirmative position as the option.

In at least 100 words, discuss the significance of Frances Harper publishing "The Two Offers," a story that has little to do with slavery or race, in an abolitionist newspaper. Use evidence from the text to support your answer.
Answer:
During this time period, The harper's works centered around her abolitionist efforts.
These works created general awareness among people in united states about the cruelty and suffering that African American experienced during slavery, which became the stepping foundation for American society to progress forward. “Two Offers”, is a short story based on domestication, morale, and Christian values. During a time when men ruled in both society and in the home, how interesting for a woman to be presented with two life-altering offers. This story explores what the unfamiliar territory ‘choice’ was for women then and depicts the very motives that lay at the helm of such a decision. This story finds cousins, Laura Lagrange and Janette Alston, weighing in on two apparent offers of marriage. Their commentary on these offers was more than mere opinions; it would become the bed in which each woman would eventually have to lie in, indefinitely. These perspectives were a page out of a century when many women felt domestication was more important than self-discovery.
“Talk as you will of woman's deep capacity for loving, of the strength of her affectional nature. I do not deny it; but will the mere possession of any human love, fully satisfy all the demands of her whole being?”
HOPE THIS HELPS !
PLEASE MARK AS brilliant I WOULD BE SO HAPPY IF YOU DO THANK YOU:)
Answer:
In publishing "The Two Offers," a story that has little to do with slavery or race, in an abolitionist newspaper, Frances Harper was able to create a more widespread awareness with the people of the United States around the cruel and difficult choices and lives that African-Americans had to live with during slavery. The short story itself presents a new narrative and perspective stories that typically would have featured only a man and his choices; rather than focusing on a man, however, the story focuses on two women who are cousins and the two choices that they are faced with--which are not really much of a choice at all when it comes down to it, because no matter what they choose, they will be stuck with that decision the rest of their lives.
