Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an
important skill in writing. There are many ways to do this--many possible bonus
points! Combine the following three sentences.
Sentence 1: The snowfall lay heavily on the ground.
Sentence 2: People were shovelling driveways and
sidewalks and piling up snow into snow mountains.
Sentence 3: There was little traffic on the roads
until the snow ploughs had cleared the major routes.

SARA: You need to give this one some more thought. I don't know what you mean by "made that little traffic"; also check the punctuation.
RUFUS: The first one is excellent--there are grammatical problems with the 2nd one.
