1.) both A and D are technically phrases that modify the subject since both use the pronoun "his" which is referring to "Jerome"(subject). I think the more likely to be
D since the phrase is more obvious because it's a prepositional phrase instead of a gerund.
2.) the answer is C because it contsins a subject(show), a verb(let), but begins with a suboordinatin conjunction (after) which means the clause needs an independent clause in order to support it. The rest of the of the
options are phrases, and C could easily be mistaken as a phase considering it starts with "after" which is a preposition. However, because the remark contains a subject and a verb, the word "after" becomes a suboordinating conjunction instead of a preposition.
3.) D is correct because it contains a single independent clause (it was time to get out the sweaters) along with at least one dependent clause (When the birds flew south for the winter).
4.) C is correct because it contains a single independent clause (Andrea could not open the mailbox) along with at least one dependent clause (Since she forgot the key to the lock).

A. The speaker is saying that she and her peers should be allowed to handle the punishments for people like Hester Prynne. She thinks this because they would band together as a group and be all on the same page in their punishment, rather than leaving it up to the magistrate--whose punishment she does not think adequately fit the crime Hester committed.
