Compound Sentence
The modern bicycle has a long and varied history.
It began its development with the velocipedes or bone-shakers of the nineteenth century, so it has a 200-year pedigree.
The next changes came about with the introduction of high-wheeled bicycles in the late Victorian period.
These were commonly known as penny-farthings because like the coins one wheel was far larger than the other.
Yet even then riding was still unaffordable for the great majority of people, and it would take many years before bikes became cheap enough for all.
Although bikes have not changed design for many years now, today’s versions are without doubt faster, lighter and more reliable than those of the past.
Indeed, it is obvious to all that cycling is presently going through a golden age.
The conjunction of new materials and advanced manufacturing methods should bring about additional technological advances; furthermore, as the price of bikes goes down, the chance to own and enjoy a ‘conveyance’ will be available to more people than ever before.

Yet even then riding was still unaffordable for the great majority of people, and it would take many years before bikes became cheap enough for all.
Explanation:
Compound sentences are sentences that consist of two or more independent clauses connected by a comma and conjunction or by a semicolon. There are only seven coordinating conjunctions: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so.
An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a sentence. Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Unlike independent clauses, dependent (subordinate) clauses don't fulfill these criteria, which is why they can't stand alone as sentences.
This means that you need to choose sentences that consist of more than one independent clause and no subordinate clauses. These sentences are:

Make A paragraph 2-4 sentences, on what is bullying! In your own words please.
I know what it is I just can’t really explain in type
Answer:
Bullying in my opinion is,
Explanation:
Bullying is something that some children, and even adults decide to do to who they think are less dominant than themselves. It's when a bully decides to make fun of or pick on them for, how they dress, how they look, or just because the bullies want to. Sometimes people are bullied because of how they look or dress. This obviously is not something the person has control of. Most of the time when someone bullies another it is because they themselves, are unhappy or have problems at home. The best thing to do if you are the bullied is to one, fight back with kindness, or two just simply find help. You can find help from a teacher, loved of, or a trusted friend.

Answer:
Assignment Nixon’s Argument
President Nixon was trying to convince them that he didn't profit from public service, but he earned every single penny in the argument. He said that he was glad that the people were wondering about this because he wanted them to know if their president was a crook or not. President Nixon didn't convince me. He wasn't entirely focused on his speech. While he was giving his speech, his voice showed that he was nervous or anxious.
He also had a tone of anxiety in his voice. Based on his language and nonverbal cues, the audience perceives Nixon as untrustworthy after his speech. Nixon's nonverbal cues indicate annoyed, defensiveness, and anxiety, while his words express innocence. The words used in the text, such as mistakes and "welcome this kind of examination," show that Nixon is saying he is offense. When Nixon said “so that when I, in 1968, decided to become a candidate for President, I decided to clean the decks and to put everything in real estate. I sold all my stock for $300,000—that is all I owned. I sold my apartment in New York for $300,000—I am using rough figures here. And I had $100,000 coming to me from the law firm.”
Nixon claims that when he became president, he
Sold all of his stock ($300,000 worth),
Sold his New York City apartment (for $300,000), and
Collected $100,000 in salary from his law firm.
If Nixon really was telling the truth he would had showed evidence like- a bill, transaction records, and a paycheck.
