Question

He worked hard. She failed in exams.
(Combine the two using "inspite of")​

Answer 1

Combining both the sentences as follows:-

In spite of him working hard, he failed the exams.

• in spite of is used to show that a certain event is not impacted by the event that occurred prior to it, although it was carried out for that purpose.
• The given answer is a complex sentence. There is one dependent sub-clause that takes the support of the independent main clause. "Him working hard" is the sub-clause, "he failed the exams" is the main clause.
• in spite of is a subordinating conjunction that joins the main clause to the sub clause.
