She did not finish, for by this time she was bending down and punching under the bed with the broom, and so she needed breath to punctuate the punches with.
She went to the open door and stood in it and looked out among the tomato vines and "jimpson" weeds that constituted the garden.
"It's mighty hard to make him work Saturdays, when all the boys is having holiday, but he hates work more than he hates anything else, and I've got to do some of my duty by him, or I'll be the ruination of the child."
While Tom was eating his supper, and stealing sugar as opportunity offered, Aunt Polly asked him questions that were full of guile, and very deep—for she wanted to trap him into damaging revealments.

It's tha phrase "We camped near Lake Arrowhead when we went fishing last year." Subordinate Clause or Independent Clause

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Independent clause: "We camped near Lake Arrowhead"

Subordinate clause: "when we went fishing last year."

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words that has a subject and a predicate and that conveys a complete message or thought. Therefore, an independent clause can stand alone as a sentence because it is possible to understand it without further information. That is the case with "We camped near Lake Arrowhead."

On the other hand, a subordinate clause is dependent. It too has a subject and a predicate, but it cannot stand alone as a sentence. It needs a main clause to complete its meaning. Imagine someone walks up to you and suddenly says, "when we went fishing last year." You will certain ask them, "When you went fishing last year, what?" There is clearly information and context missing here.
