Select all the words that form the independent clause in the sentence. The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The words that form the independent clause in the sentence "The movie, which we watched yesterday, was hilarious." are: The movie was hilarious.

Explanation:

There are two types of clauses:

  • Independent clauses: they can stand on their own. That is to say, that they make sense when we read them. There is no need for extra information to understand the meaning.
  • Dependent clauses: they can not stand on their own. In other words, they depend on another clause, which gives the necessary information to understand the meaning of the dependant clause.

Both types of clauses consist mainly of a subject and a verb, they are separated by commas, or they have subordinating conjunction at the beginning of the clause.

In this case, the clause between commas (which we watched yesterday) is the dependant clause. I can not fully understand the meaning of it when reading only that clause since information is missing. The clause The movie was hilarious is the independent clause because it can stand on its own.

Essay on how you spend your summer vacation in 250 words​
Gekata [30.6K]

Vacations are the best time to relax and enjoy and I eagerly wait for my summer vacations every year. Every year my school closes in the middle of the month of May and reopens by the end of June. Annual exams get over and the results are declared.

This time I got promoted to class nine from class eight. After the hard labor for the examinations, I wanted some rest and also some refreshment. Hence I put aside my books for a few weeks. Next day morning I went out to play with my friends.

It was a very hot and sunny day so we decided to play indoor games. In the evening I asked my father and mother to take me to any of the hill stations because I wanted to beat the heat. My father told me that we cannot go to a hill station because all the hotels and resorts are booked beforehand only.

 

It was too hot, the sun was scorching and the wind was deliberating. Fortunately my uncle had invited my family to Haridwar where he had reached two weeks earlier. Me and my parents reached Haridwar. My uncle, my aunty and my cousins were all very excited to see all of us. They welcomed us with a warm heart.

At Haridwar I went to the bank of River Ganga in the morning and it was very pleasant to see hundreds of men and women bathing in the stream of Ganga and then offering prayers in the different temples of its “Ghats”.

I requested my uncle to take us to the hilly spots in the vicinity. He was kind enough to take all of us there. The hill sights of Laxmi jhoola, Swargashram and many other spots fascinated me. I saw a large number of trees bearing beautiful fruits and flowers.

The peeping of Sun’s rays in the morning and evening was really very charming. The waterfall at some distances shone like flowing silver in the moonlight. The cool breeze was always felt. No heat or dust of the plain was felt here. I was very much pleased.

We remained there for two whole weeks. From there my father and my uncle planned to go on a pilgrimage. We left for Mathura and Vrindavan. There we had darshan of Dwarkadhish, Rangji, Behariji, and of many other temples.

We then went to Girirajji. We also went to Karoli and Mahaveerji, a place of Jain pilgrimage. The scenery and views of all these places was beautiful and breathtaking.

Of all the vacations in my life, this was my best summer vacation ever, mainly because my cousins were also there. We had collected memories for a lifetime. I told my parents that we will plan similar holidays for every summer vacation, in the coming years.

He firmly nodded to what I said. The vacation was over and I was back to school but my mind was still remembering the sweet memories of the summer vacation. I will await the next summer holidays and would love to go on this type of vacation again and again.

Hope it helps u dear friend....
