Explanation:

Analyze Question 30 sentence structures

We need to classify each sentence on the right into its correct structural category on the left.

1. "Cassidy and Arturo like to study in the morning."

• This sentence contains one independent clause with a compound subject ("Cassidy and Arturo") and a single predicate ("like to study in the morning").
• Since there is only one independent clause and no dependent clauses, it is a Simple sentence.

1. "Alejandro played football, so Maria went shopping."

• This sentence contains two independent clauses: "Alejandro played football" and "Maria went shopping", joined by the coordinating conjunction "so".
• Since it consists of two independent clauses and no dependent clauses, it is a Compound sentence.

1. "The book, which is out of print, is one of my favorites."

• This sentence contains one independent clause ("The book is one of my favorites") and one dependent relative clause ("which is out of print").
• Since it has one independent clause and at least one dependent clause, it is a Complex sentence.

1. "Though Samantha prefers peanut butter and jelly sandwiches..." (The visible text is cut off, but we can infer the structure from the remaining category).

• The remaining category is Compound/complex sentence. A compound-complex sentence contains at least two independent clauses and at least one dependent clause (starting with the dependent clause "Though Samantha prefers peanut butter and jelly sandwiches...").

Analyze Question 31 pronoun function

Using our understanding of Parts of Speech, we analyze the word "they".

• The word "they" is a pronoun used as the subject of a verb (e.g., "They went to the store").
• Therefore, it functions in the subjective case, making it a Subjective pronoun.
