There is only one sentence, which contains two (suborninate) clauses connected by the conjunction "but". A clause cannot stand alone, but a sentence can. So when we say "help!", that is a sentence. However, when we say "As the person you talked to yesterday in the school was reading slowly," we don't have a sentence, as it's not complete yet. Hope this helps.
One or two sentences? please help
