Answer:
The type of parenthetical element that refers to specific nouns and begins with words like who, whom, and where is:
B. relative clauses.
Explanation:
A relative clause, or adjective clause, always starts with a relative pronoun or a relative adverb. Its purpose is to tell us something about a specific noun. Since it is a clause, it must have a subject and a verb. Take a look at the example below:
- That is the girl that I met at the dinner party last night.
In the sentence above, the clause "that I met" gives us information about the noun "girl". It starts with the relative pronoun "that" and has a subject ("I") and a verb ("met").
NOTE: The relative clause above can have the relative pronoun omitted. However, when the clause has a relative pronoun that also functions as the subject, we cannot omit it, as is shown in the example below:
- That is the girl who thought the party was at 8:00.
Statements can have more than one counterexample. True.
Let's write complete sentences using the given words:
1. Van Gogh's paintings are almost as expensive as the work of Picasso.
2. We did not know the Recycled Orchestra until we watched the video online yesterday.
For the first sentence, we can see that the purpose is to compare the work of two painters, Van Gogh and Picasso. That is why we use the structure "as ... as". We must place the adjective "expensive" in the middle: "almost as expensive as".
For the second sentence, we do not need to add anything. However, because of the word "yesterday", we know the sentence refers to something that happened in the past. Thus, we use the Simple Past tense for the verbs: not know - did not know; watch - watched.
In conclusion, all we need to do is read the words to grasp what the purpose of each sentence is and then add or change whatever is necessary to form a complete sentence.
