How can the following simple sentences be joined to create a compound sentence? we are going to an apple orchard today. then we will make different desserts with all the apples. question 18 options: a) we are going to an apple orchard today, and then we will make different desserts with all the apples. b) we are going to an apple orchard today; then we will make different desserts with all the apples. c) we are going to an apple orchard today; and then we will make different desserts with all the apples. d) both a and b

The answer is option d) Both A and B

When joining two independent sentences to form a compound one, we may count on punctuation and conjunctions. Option A uses both, a comma and the conjunction "and" to establish the connection between the sentences. Option B does the same by using a semicolon to show the sentences are closely related. Option C, even though very similar to option A, uses unnecessary punctuation: the semicolon should not be used before the conjunction "and" in this case.
