*SENTENCE COMBINATION*

Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an important writing skill. There are many ways to do this. Try to combine the following three sentences.

Sentence 1The snow lay heavily on the ground.
Sentence 2People were shovelling their driveways and sidewalks.
Sentence 3There was little traffic on the roads until the ploughs had cleared the major routes.
