Ihave four questions:

1.) write a simple sentence elaborated with at least three modifying phrases.

2.) write a compound sentence balanced for contrast with a semicolon.

3.) write a compound sentence with a conjunctive adverb punctuated with a semicolon and a comma.

4.) write a complex sentence with a subordinate clause beginning with "who" or "which." then revise the clause into an appositive phrase.

1)   The man next to him, talking to the neighbours whenever possible, was his father. The first modifying phrase is “next to him”, which acts as an adjective, as it describes the noun “man”. The second modifying phrase is “talking to the neighbours”, and it also acts as an adjective (also describes the man). The third modifying phrase would be “whenever possible”, and it acts as an adverb, telling us when the man talks to the neighbours.

2)   The people urged him to surrender; he resisted. This sentence is compound because it has two independent clauses: “the people urged him to surrender” and “he resisted”. It is balanced for contrast with a semicolon because it is more effective that way. The semicolon adds to the dynamics. It is still the same sentence, and the contrast is all the more remarkable.

3)   Helen was starting to like him; however, she didn’t want to show her true feelings. This is a compound sentence because it has two independent clauses. The conjunctive adverb is “however”. Here is how it would look without it: Helen was starting to like him, but she didn’t want to show her true feelings.

4)   Everybody loved to listen to Marco, who was an interesting person. This is a complex sentence, composed of an independent clause “everybody loved to listen to Marco”, and a dependent (subordinate) clause “who was an interesting person”. Here is the same sentence with an appositive phrase instead of the subordinate clause: Everybody loved to listen to Marco, an interesting person.

the writer needs to avoid using abbreviations and check spelling before sharing.
