Ultimate Colon Cleanse with Probiotics (1 Pack) [30 Day Eval - Pay NOTHING Now!]



can someone demonstrate a long complex sentence, and compound sentence? 10pts!?

i know what a regular complex and compound sentence looks like, but can you give me a college level example? could you please give me an example that a real person would use without sounding like a robot or in uneducated person? this is my problem i tend to have issues with run-ons.
Also im having problems knowing where to place my commas and semicolons

please give me better examples then;
a) Mary went out, and she had fun. ( thats a basic fifth grade level sentence example, could you give me an example suited for an adult:] )
or
b) Jane loves rick because he buys her flowers. (also an elementry example)

if you could help me it would be greatly appreciated!!!
thanks so much:)

My english teacher made these videos;
