alleryWhich is a **simple sentence**?
AThe sun rises in the east.
BThe boy who won the race is my brother.
CHe came home and slept.
DI will go if you come.
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. The sun rises in the east.
A **simple sentence** has only one subject and one predicate (one finite verb, no subordinate clauses). 'The sun rises in the east' has subject=sun, verb=rises — simple.
- A is compound (two clauses joined by 'and').
- B is complex (relative clause 'who won the race').
- D is complex (conditional 'if' clause).
