Question

Identify the complete adjective clause.

Answer 1

The right answer is:

d. for which I have been waiting all my life.

Explanation:

Most adjective clauses begin with a trigger word called a relative pronoun. In this case, it is "which" and there are other four, who, whom, whose and that.

Answer 2

d. for which I have been waiting all my life. This is the correct option.

The adjective clause is giving information about opportunity. We can rewrite the sentence like this : This is the opportunity. I have been waiting for this opportunity all my life . These two independent sentences can be linked into a simple sentence : This is the opportunity for which ( the relative word and the preposition have to be placed at the beginning of the adjective clause. Which stands for opportunity and for links the verb To wait and opportunity.) I have been waiting all my life.).

These options are not right:

a. This is the opportunity. ( This is the sentence without the adjective clause).

b. the opportunity for which  ( This is incomplete. It has elements from the sentence and from the adjective clause).

c. the opportunity for which I have been waiting all my life. ( The adjective clause does not include the opportunity).

e. I have been waiting all my life. ( This is part of the adjective clause but it is incomplete).
