Which of the following sentences is an example of a simple sentence?
Correct: C
The correct answer is C) I went to the store. This sentence is a simple sentence because it contains only one independent clause, which has a subject ("I") and a verb ("went to the store"). The sentence is complete and self-contained, and it does not contain any subordinate clauses or conjunctions. Choice A is incorrect because it is a compound sentence, which contains two independent clauses joined by a conjunction. Choice B is incorrect because it is a sentence fragment, as it lacks an independent clause. Choice D is incorrect because it is a sentence fragment, as it lacks a verb to complete the sentence.
