Question

Read the sentence -- If you finish your yard work, you can take the car to the movie.

Answer 1

In the sentence "If you finish your yard work, you can take the car to the movie.", the first clause (If you finish your yard work,) is a dependent clause as it depends on the second clause (you can take the car to the movie.) in order to have complete meaning. This sentence starts with If (adverb of condition). An elliptical clause contains the omission of something that is implied. An adjective clause describes nouns and pronouns. A noun clause acts as a pronoun. Because, with the exception of option D, none happen in this sentence, your best answer is option D.
