<span>subordinate clause: as if they had been total
strangers.
clause type: adverb clause
</span>
<span />
<span>It’s a good rule of thumb to keep an eye out for
subordinating conjunctions when looking for subordinating clauses because of
how subordinating conjunctions (such as “as”) will begin a subordinate clause. Then, when trying to decide whether the clause
is an adverb clause or an adjective clause, a good question to ask yourself is “What
is this describing?” For instance, what
is “as if they had been total strangers” describing? The answer is the way they boarded. And, “boarded” is an verb; thus, because the
clause is adding to the verb, the clause is an adverb clause. </span>
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Explanation:
I feel similar to the kite in the sense that we both need wind to be able to fly. In my case, it´s my family, and especially my sister, who acts as the wind because they support me and encourage me to pursuit all my dreams.
My strengths as a person are qualities that help me overcome obstacles and learn from them, such as my intelligence and creativeness. Most of all, I have a great family that supports me and encourages me to follow every desire and project I might want to develop.
Capital letter and a period.
