Answer:

A: The police arrested the suspect for robbing a bank and because he drove a stolen car.

Explanation:

from Declaration of Sentiments (1848)

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one portion of the family of man to assume among the people of the earth a position different from that which they have hitherto occupied, but one to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes that impel them to such a course.
We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and women are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights governments are instituted, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of those who suffer from it to refuse allegiance to it, and to insist upon the institution of a new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their duty to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of the women under this government, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to demand the equal station to which they are entitled.
The history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward woman, having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

Which sentence is a complex sentence?
Time is not always change. Time can also mean continuity, and it can mean keeping acknowledged truths in mind despite differences in
circumstances. There is no better example of this in Things Fall Apart than the retellings of the proverb about the bird named Eneke. The language
in both retellings is almost identical despite the length of time that has passed between their repetitions. In comparing the usages of the same
proverb, Achebe allows his readers to note the similarities and differences between the situations, and he helps them understand how this story can
be applied to their own lives.

URGENT-Romeo and Juliet is a great love story. Throughout the centuries people were fascinated by the couples devotion to each other. But were they truly in love? If you want to write an argumentative essay whether Romeo and Juliet were too immature to love each other what would be your claim?

The play begins so that Romeo claims he loves Rosaline but when he sees Juliet he abandons her.
