Hello,

1. Since the boy worked hard, he made a good result. (Complex sentence)

I have to change it into a compound sentence.

A. The boy worked hard and therefore he made a good result.

B. The boy worked hard and he made a good result.

Are both #A and #B correct?

Is 'therefore' required as in #1?

Thanks.

  • hanuman_2000 he made a good result.
  • That is bad English.
  • hanuman_2000 Are both #A and #B correct?
  • Neither is a good choice, and both are wrong because of the 2nd clause (see comment above).
  • The boy worked hard, and he succeeded.
