Question

[1] While he was working for Thomas Farmer, he began to buy fruits and other goods and sell them himself. [2] He faced insults and difficulties doing this; however, he was determined to continue making money, which he did. [3] He wanted to obtain enough savings to buy his freedom, which Robert King had promised him he could do for the same amount that King had paid for him. [4] When he had saved enough money, he bought his freedom from King and lived the rest of his life as a free man. Which sentence in the paragraph is structured differently than the others?

Answer 1

B. sentence 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The sentence in the paragraph that is structured differently from the others is [2] "He faced insults and difficulties doing this; however, he was determined to continue making money, which he did".

In the second sentence, "however" is joining two independent clauses ("He faced insults and difficulties doing this" and "he was determined to continue making money, which he did"), which means that it is connecting two clauses that can stand alone. At the same time, the second clause contains an independent clause and a dependent clause ("which he did"). Therefore, this sentence is structured differently from the other sentences, which are only made up of one independent clause and one dependent clause.
