Complex sentences and Changing sentences from the text.
By Felicity
Sentence;Nancy ran away at the age of 16 to become a nurse.
New sentence; Nancy ran away at the age of 16 because she wanted to become a nurse.
I changed this sentence into a complex sentence because it was easier to read and it made more sense.
Sentence; It was too dangerous in France, she needed to move to Britain.
New sentence; It was too dangerous in France so she needed to move to Britain.
I changed the coma to “so” because it could add up to one sentence without stopping. The sentence flowed better with the so too.
Sentence; Her missions with the resistance meant that she was in danger, she had many identities, by 1943 she was number one on the gestapo's most wanted person.
New sentence; Her missions with the resistance meant that she was in danger, she had many identities. By 1943 she was number one on the gestapo's most wanted person.
I decided to put the text into two sentence, because they were two different parts and it was a long sentence.
Sentence; Her parents are Charles Augustus and Ella Rosier Wake Nancy wake was the youngest of six.
New sentence; Her parents are Charles Augustus and Ella Rosier Wake. Nancy wake was the youngest of six.
I changed this into two sentences because it needed to be separated because they are different subjects.
Sentence; Nancy Wake was a good role model because she fought against people that didn’t accept everyone as who they were, and she showed how to stand up to everyone, even if she risked her life, she is a role model because it is a huge job training to be a spy and a soldier.
New sentence; Nancy Wake was a good role model because she fought against people that didn’t accept everyone as who they were. She showed how to stand up to everyone even if she risked her life. She is a role model because it is a huge job training to be a spy and a soldier.
I ended up putting this sentence in to three sentences to make the text better.
