Which statement best describes the sentences in

this passage?
We are all of a nation of dancers, musicians
and poets. Thus every great event, such as a
triumphant return from battle, or other cause
of public rejoicing is celebrated in public
dances, which are accompanied with songs
and music suited to the occasion. The
assembly is separated into four divisions,
which dance either apart or in succession,
and each with a character peculiar to itself.

Answer:

The sentences are long but grammatically correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the passage, it can be seen that although the sentences are long, they are grammatically correct and of good descriptive quality.

The passage began with the statement that the nation is known for dance,music and poetry and goes ahead to say that for every great event, they are celebrated with dances, then songs and music as it suits the occasion.

It goes ahead to describe the assembly and how many sections it is divided into.
