Answer:

Among paragraphs 8-38, we can see that Mary did not prepare dinner, but got ready, prepared a drink for her husband and waited anxiously for him to return from work because it was Thursday night. This was a special day when Mary and her husband had dinner outside.

Explanation:

This question is about "Lamb to the Slaughter", a short story that tells the story of Mary, a very pregnant woman dedicated to the welfare of her husband who is anxiously waiting for them to go out to dinner. Mary has a very strong admiration for her husband, loves his company and feels good when he is at home. However, the special night was spoiled when her husband comes home and tells her that their marriage is over.

Identify the underlined clauses either as subordinate or independent. 1. Because he ran, he was able to catch the bus. subordint
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The question is not complete, as none of the clauses in the sentence are underlined, however, I will give you the type of each of the two clauses:

<u>Because he ran:</u> (subordinate clause)

<u>he was able to catch the bus.</u> (independent clause)

Explanation:

A clause is a part of a sentence, and a clause contains a verb.

Subordinate/dependent clauses are clauses that cannot stand alone when isolated from a sentence, and still make complete sense, instead, they help to give further meaning to the main/independent clause. In this case "Because he ran", is not a complete thought on its own, as it leads to asking the question "so what?"

Independent/main clauses can stand alone and still make sense. In this example "he was able to catch the bus" can stand alone and still make sense.

A verb phrase can be the sentence's predicate or a clause. The predicate is the part of the sentence that tells what the subject is doing.  A verb phrase sometimes serves as an adjective or adverb complete with a verb, the complements and others.
