Which of the following is a complex sentence?
A. Check out the editorial page in today's paper and you'll notice the piece by Oscar Lewis.
B. I would like to visit the Kinshasa, but I understand the city is unsafe for foreigners.
C. As Jake was reading the letter from June yet again, the flight attendant coughed gently to get his attention.
D. I simply cannot make heads or tails of rap lyrics, but I suppose I'm just too old to understand them.

Respuesta :

The correct answer is C. Because a complex sentence contains one independent clause (in this case, 'the flight attendant coughed gently to get his attention') and at least one dependent/subordinate clause (in this case, 'as Jake was reading the letter from June yet again').
