Dialogue
Listen to a conversation between two students.
Cory: Hey, Shirley! Did you hear? Tom got expelled from school!
Shirley: No way! What happened?
Cory: I don’t know the details, but I heard he was caught cheating on an exam.
Shirley: Really? Well then I think he deserved it. It’s irresponsible to cheat. As students, we learn for ourselves. I don’t think getting high grades is the goal. Also, think about it. It’s really unfair to other students, too. Did you know that in some schools, if someone is caught cheating on an exam, the school can cancel everybody’s results? Everybody has to retake the test!
Cory: Are you serious?
Shirley: You bet I am. I don’t agree with that, but I do think cheaters should be punished.
Cory: I agree. Cheaters should be punished, but the punishment shouldn’t be too extreme. School should always ask why the student cheated. Students cheat for different reasons. School needs to judge each case individually. They could make the student retake the class, for example. Or they could make the student pay a fine. I think that could work. But expelling them is too extreme. I mean, think about his future and his family.
Shirley: Well, I disagree. I doubt someone who cheats ever thinks about their future or their family. Like I said, they’re irresponsible.

复合句是指一句话中出现了两个动作甚至两个主语。这两个部分通过连词连接，共同构成一个句子。本单元介绍的连词是and。And表示并列关系，连接前后的语句逻辑上地位等同。
And连接情况1：主谓宾+ and + 谓宾
这个结构表示主语做了两个动作。
【例】I met with a friend and ate some food. 我见了一个朋友，还吃了一些东西。
在这里句子中没有暗示这两件事的先后顺序和重要性，所以用and并列，单纯表示这两件事都是“我”完成的。
And连接情况2：主谓宾+逗号+ and +主谓宾
逗号+and连接的后半句表示补充，这种补充没有因果关系，也没有递进关系，可以理解为前一句引发的一个注解。
【例】 I watched a film yesterday, and the couple next to me was talking the entire time. 我昨天看了一场电影，坐在我旁边的一对情侣在电影播放期间一直在讲话。
3. Write sentences in English with the structure above.
(1) 我吃了一个汉堡，还听了一首歌。

(2) 我今天遇见了Lin，她是一个优秀的歌手。
