I don't believe in the American Dream, because if you look outside your window, there are so many people in broken down houses, most without a house. Sleeping in cars, sleeping on a friend's couch, homeless shelters, foster care. I believe it would be possible if the rich gave more to the poor. I think those who believe in it have their heart in the right place, but to be honest, there's nothing much they can do unless they convince the government to tax the rich higher taxes, and give the extra to the poor. It is foolish to believe America will ever be what the American Dream stands for. Honestly, when somebody has money, they don't want to give it to anybody else. Keep it themselves.
Hope this helps!

Please provide a paragraph or some kind of context for this :)
There is a quote that accurately portrays the mood when Helen discovers her husbands fate:
"Scout," said Dill, "She just fell down in the dirt. Just fell down in the dirt, like a giant with a big foot just came along and stepped on her. Just ump-" Dills fat foot hit the ground. "Like you'd step on an ant."
Helen was very upset about Toms death.

Answer:
D. Dad went into the bedroom, but first he stopped to pet the dog.
Explanation:
A coordinate clause is a clause introduced by one of the coordinating conjunctions (<em>for, and, nor, but, or, yet, </em>or <em>so</em>). Together with the main clause, one or more coordinate clauses make up a compound sentence - a sentence that consists of two or more independent clauses.
In order to solve this question, we need to determine which sentence contains a coordinating conjunction. Based on the list of coordinating conjunctions I've included, we can see that the correct answer is sentence D (<em>but </em>is the coordinating conjunction that introduces the coordinate clause). The rest of the sentences contain subordinating conjunctions (<em>although, if, after</em>), which is why they are incorrect.
This is why option D is the correct one.
