B) adverbial clause of reason
C) adverbial clause of condition
D) adverbial clause of *concession

Answer 1

Answer:

Letter C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An adverbial clause of condition provides a situation under which an effect will happen under specific causes. Some of the most common words to indicate this clause of condition are if, whether, unless, among many others. In the sentence we can see how it starts with the word if, indicating the cause, and the effect is seen after the coma. Since past and present perfect are used ("Cassie's team had won" and "would have been thrilled), this is an example of third conditional, used to describe imaginary situations with results in the past.

Answer 2

 If Cassie's team had won the tournament, Coach Goodale would have been thrilled. 

The adverbial clause is: IF CASSIE'S TEAM HAD WON THE TOURNAMENT.

The primary function of the underlined adverbial clause is C) ADVERBIAL CLAUSE OF CONDITION.

The adverbial clause of condition usually starts with the words IF or UNLESS. This states the condition for the main idea to come into effect.
