3. Simple sentence

4. Simple sentence

5. Complex sentence

6. Complex sentence

7. Simple sentence

Explanation:

I have been able to identify the simple, compound and complex sentences in the given question. Each number in the question carries the answer.

A simple sentence is the sentence that has just one independent clause. It gives a complete thought and information. For example, No. 2 gives a complete thought and it has just one independent clause.

A compound sentence is one that has at least two independent clauses. In this sentence, both the subject and predicate conveys a complete thought.

A complex sentence is the sentence that has one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. No. 5 and 6 are clear examples of a complex sentence.

Note: Independent clauses can stand alone and give a complete thought while dependent cannot give a complete thought.

Answer from: Quest

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
