    1) FANBOYS: for, and, nor, but, or, yes, so.

    2) Rather than, as much as, after, although, since, unless, whoever, wherever, whichever, as if, whether, until, so that, how, whose.

    3) A context in which some people are not “equal” can be a boss/supervisor and employee situation. The boss stays above the rest, reminding everyone he is in power and control. It’s ironic because both parties want the same goal, which is to better the business/company.

    4) 1. I’m thrilled because I am going to Italy this year!
    2. After a long day of work, I’m always ready to go to sleep.
    3. I reorganized the entire pantry after I came home from school.
    4. Due to his excellent performance, Michael was awarded the most valuable player trophy.
    5. While my parents were having dinner, I was preparing the dessert.

    5) The difference between a phrase and a clause is that a phrase is any collection of words that behaves like a part of speech, but a clause is any noun phrase plus a verb.

    6) Clause- a unit of grammatical organization next below the sentence in rank and in traditional grammar said to consist of a subject and predicate.
    Phrase- a small group of words standing together as a conceptual unit, typically forming a component of a clause.

    7) A short story is a brief fictional prose narrative that is shorter than a novel and that usually deals with only a few characters.

    8) Short story- a story with a fully developed theme but significantly shorter and less elaborate than a novel.

    9) I can’t fully remember the names of any short stories I have read, alone or in school. However, I do remember a prominent author of poems and short stories by the name Edgar Allan Poe. Hopefully this is sufficient enough.
