1. Simple sentence

2. Complex sentence.

3. Compound sentence.

Explanation:

In sentence 1, "I took the dog for a half-mile walk" is just a simple sentence.

Sentence 2 is a complex sentence in that it contains both an independent and a subordinate clause. "The dog ran cheerfully through the park" is the independent clause while "he had been shut in the house all day" can't be a sentence on it's own thereby, is the subordinate clause.

Sentence 3 is a compound sentence. It has a subject and more than one predicate. Also, it contains two independent clauses that can stand on their own. "He stopped to smell several flowers" and "he chased a squirrel" are the two clauses that are independent.

well stockyards mean a large yard containing pens and sheds, typically adjacent to a slaughterhouse, in which livestock is kept and sorted. and i'm assuming that by party you   mean a large group of people which does make sense because chicago is a very crowded place much like new york. stockyards tend to take up a lot of room due to needing the area for pens to keep animals in and the fact that stockyards are usually right by slaughterhouse where they process and distribute the product. so its much like a zoo but with some dead animal products close by.
