THE WEAKNESS OF PUBLIC MORALITY
In “Young Goodman Brown,” Hawthorne reveals what he sees as the corruptibility that results from Puritan society’s emphasis on public morality, which often weakens private religious faith. Although Goodman Brown has decided to come into the forest and meet with the devil, he still hides when he sees Goody Cloyse and hears the minister and Deacon Gookin. He seems more concerned with how his faith appears to other people than with the fact that he has decided to meet with the devil. Goodman Brown’s religious convictions are rooted in his belief that those around him are also religious. This kind of faith, which depends so much on other people’s views, is easily weakened. When Goodman Brown discovers that his father, grandfather, Goody Cloyse, the minister, Deacon Gookin, and Faith are all in league with the devil, Goodman Brown quickly decides that he might as well do the same. Hawthorne seems to suggest that the danger of basing a society on moral principles and religious faith lies in the fact that members of the society do not arrive at their own moral decisions. When they copy the beliefs of the people around them, their faith becomes weak and rootless.

Answer:(C). Subordinate clause.
Explanation:
Subordinate clauses are defined as the clauses that usually begin with a subordinating conjunction and depend on the principal clause to accomplish its meaning. Thus, these clauses primarily function to compliment the meaning of the original meaning of the sentence by adding information to it. As per the question, the type of clause that could be identified in the given sentence would be 'subordinate clause'('As the fireworks roared and exploded overhead') as it begins with the subordinating conjunction 'as' and is dependent on the main clause to accomplish its meaning. However, it is followed by the main clause('Brandon....show') but on the very first note, one can observe the dependent clause. Thus, option C is the correct answer

Sinners have little left to mess up after they sin of course. It is almost like treading on “thin ice”. Like also meaning whatever they do next is the last straw.
