Талдау

Count the clauses in each sentence. 'The students, exhausted after the long and difficult exam, left the classroom without saying a word' has one subject and one finite predicate. The participial phrase is not a clause, so the sentence is simple. 'She opened the window, the fresh air filled the room, and the curtains began to move slowly' has three independent clauses and no dependent clause, so it is compound. 'Although the road was closed because of the heavy snow, we reached the village on time' has one independent clause and two dependent clauses (although... and because...), so it is complex. 'When the bell rang, the students left, but the teacher stayed' has the dependent clause 'When the bell rang' and two independent clauses, 'the students left' and 'but the teacher stayed'. This is a compound-complex sentence.
