Part 2 Complicated Sentences: (create a complex sentence from the simple one)
  • Simple - The dog crossed the street.
  • Complex - The dog a German Shepherd, whose neck was so high, his head hit the Moon, chased a herd of goats across 3512th st. in Chicago. And his head hit our one and only Moon and the Moon exploded and chunks of it rained down upon the city. Piles of metal, glass and rock is all that remains of Chicago Illinois. 
  • Simple -  Fred is riding a bike.
  • Complex - Fred Teglagulpa is riding a KVPS 2000 Dirt Manz dirt bike at 20,000 miles per hour when his shoelace becomes undone, got caught under the wheel, and the bike flipped forward, tossing off Fred. He flew through the air, did 900 trillion somersault and landed face down on the other side of the Mars.
  • Simple - Bob ate a burger.
  • Complex - Wow! Bob thought as he stared up at the Burg-99, a 1000-foot burger. He planned to eat it all when no one was watching, which he did. But when he was eating the last few patties, Bob's stomach burst open. Stomach acid and half-digested food splashed out onto the street, flooding the city and eventually the entire Earth. Then Bob died.
  • Simple - Maria is feeling nervous.
  • Complex - Maria shuddered in her car seat:" Mom, what will happen? What if I fall over? People will laugh at me and life will be ruined. I've always feared dance recitals."   " You won't. Trust me." Said her mom. "But the stage is so slippery. And wet. "  Maria started jumping up and down in her seat. Her head punctured a hole in the roof which caused this event: she was dancing with a damaged brain. She fell over, then she got up started dancing again, and fell over again. She started dancing but kept falling down. She fell over 100 times before shouting " I give up!" and sprinting out of the theater.
