Identifying the Compound Sentence
To identify the compound sentence among the given options, we need to look for a sentence that consists of two or more independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction (such as "and," "but," or "or").
Let's analyze each option:
Option A:
- "Want to have tea"
- This is not a compound sentence as it only contains one independent clause.
Option B:
- "Something cold to drink"
- This is not a compound sentence either as it also contains only one independent clause.
Option C:
- "Do you want to have tea or would you like to have something cold?"
- This is a compound sentence as it consists of two independent clauses: "Do you want to have tea?" and "Would you like to have something cold?" connected by the coordinating conjunction "or."
Option D:
- "I can make tea for you"
- Similar to the previous options, this is not a compound sentence as it contains only one independent clause.
Therefore, the correct answer is
Option C: Do you want to have tea or would you like to have something cold?
