The store had the outdoor grill I wanted. The clerk wouldn’t sell it to me. It was the food sample.(compound-complex sentence)

正确答案:

The store had the outdoor grill I wanted, but the clerk wouldn’t sell it to me because it was the food sample.

题目解析

题干要求改为并列复合句。

分析句间关系可知,第一句和第二句之间为转折关系,可用but连接两句话为一个并列句。第三句和第二句之间为因果关系,可用because引导原因状语从句,从而并列句转化为并列复合句。

The store had the outdoor grill I wanted, but the clerk wouldn’t sell it to me because it was the food sample.

句意:这家商店有我想要的户外烤架, 但是店员不会把它卖给我,因为那是食品的样品。
