The statement most accurately describes this excerpt is that it contains two dependent <u>clauses</u> and one independent clause.

<h3>What are dependent and independent clauses? </h3>

An independent clause is the main clause which is the subject and verb as well as complete as the sentence. However, the dependent clause is incomplete and<u> cannot stand alone</u>.

Therefore, "<u>after a strenuous climb</u>" and "<u>night was approaching rapidly</u>" are dependent clauses that become absolute due to the independent clause that is  "hikers decided to make camp before reaching the summit."

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Yes but it depends on your belief or should I say religion because if your religion has god(s), there's most likely to have prophets who get prophetic visions or dreams and such. Like the Bible for example. There is a God, and He tells the future to the people prophets. Revelation is a prophecy that has not yet fulfilled, is what some of us believe but you may have different belief.
