A. Compound sentence
B. Simple sentence
C. Complex sentence
D. Sentence fragment

Answer 1

Hi there!

We know that the sentence says, "The truck raced around the corner and out of sight". So not that when the word "and" is put into a sentence like this 1, it's formally being used as a conjunction also know as compound. It has brung 2 phrases into 1 sentence! So it's obvious your answer would be:

A. Compound sentence

Hope this helps and have a fantastic day!

Answer 2

The answer is simple sentence as there are no commas or pauses. I took the same test and this was correct :). Have a nice day
