Answer:
The dependent clauses in each sentence are:
1. because it lets me imagine other worlds
2. Even though some people dislike reading
3. that I read
Explanation:
A dependent or subordinate clause is a group of words that cannot stand alone as a sentence because it does not convey a complete meaning. That is why it is called dependent: it needs the main clause to add the necessary information for it to make sense. Dependent clauses begin with subordinating conjunctions, such as "because", "even though", "unless", "although", etc. Relative clauses, which are a type of dependent clause, begin with relative pronouns, such as "that", "which", or "who".
Having that in mind, we can easily choose the dependent clauses in each sentence by identifying the subordinating and relative conjunctions in them:
1. because it lets me imagine other worlds
2. Even though some people dislike reading
3. that I read
