Row 1: a compound-complex sentence needs two independent clauses plus a subordinate clause. 'Although it was raining, we went out, and we got wet.' has the subordinate clause 'Although it was raining' and two independent clauses 'we went out' and 'we got wet' joined by 'and'. Row 2: a complex sentence has one independent clause and one subordinate clause. 'When the bell rang, the students left the classroom.' has the subordinate clause 'When the bell rang' and the independent clause 'the students left the classroom'. The sentence 'She opened the window, and fresh air filled the room.' is compound (two independent clauses, no subordinate clause). The sentence 'The students opened their books and began to read.' is simple: it has one subject and two predicates, so only one clause.
