Read the excerpt from The Dark Game: True Spy Stories from Invisible Ink to CIA Moles by Paul
Janeczko.

The United States wanted desperately to know what
the Soviets were thinking. The big fear for the U. S. was
that the Soviets would attack West Germany without
warning, or in diplomatic language, with "a cold start."
The U. S. knew that the Soviets possessed nuclear
weapons. Would they use them on the West? This
question and others would need to be answered by
U. S. intelligence agents.

i could of w this question but i don't see a " passage " .

sorry ! ):

sentences vary by structure as well as by function. there are compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences.

simple sentence

i like to read.

a simple sentence has one independent clause.

compound sentence

i like to read, and i also like to write.

a compound sentence includes more than one independent clause, connected by a coordinating conjunction (and, but, for, nor, or, so, or yet).

complex sentence

i prefer to read books that are bestsellers.

a complex sentence includes one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. (a dependent clause is one that cannot stand alone.) types of dependent clauses include relative clauses (i kicked the boy who pinched me), adverb clauses (i am going home now because i have a curfew), and noun clauses (i don't know what to do next).

compound-complex sentence

although i prefer to read current bestsellers, i do like to read old agatha christie mysteries, and i also like some 20th-century science fiction.

compound-complex sentences take a bunch of clauses (multiple independent clauses, and one or more dependent clauses) and toss them together like a salad. although these sentences take practice to write in a grammatically correct fashion, they can hold a tremendous amount of meaning, and are common in academic writing.
