Question

• A. Be honest and fear nobody.
• B. Be too honest to fear anybody.
• C. You are honest so that don't fear anybody.
• D. None of these.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Be honest and fear nobody.

A complex sentence contains one main clause and at least one subordinate clause. A compound sentence contains at least two main clauses and no subordinate clauses. We can convert a complex sentence into a compound sentence by changing the subordinate clause or clauses into main clauses. Note that subordinate clauses are introduced by conjunctions like because, as, if, when, where, since and though. The conjunctions commonly used in compound sentences are: and, or, but, yet and for.
