Connecting Sentences and Clauses

Question 4 • VT-SAT-Reading and Writing

Which sentence is a complex sentence?

Answer
A
Ashlee will bring chips and salsa to the party.
B
My dad, however, does not think skateboarding is safe.
C
Emil wants to go to the concert, but he doesn’t have a ride.
D
Although I am tired, I will finish my homework.

Explanation

A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. In “Although I am tired, I will finish my homework,” “Although I am tired” is dependent, and “I will finish my homework” can stand alone. The word “although” connects the clauses, so choice D is complex.
