<span>The correct option is option “C”. “I do not mind fishing, as
long as I don’t have to bait the hook” is the sentence in which the clause is
used as an adverb. The options “A” and “D” cannot be the right answer since in
both the cases the clause is modifying the subject and thus makes it an

The short italicized sections of the book contain the
introduction of the ‘author’ of the book who establishes himself as a character
in the text. It tells of his travels and adventures in the hopes of publishing
a book. He already had two books that flunked and thus he traveled to Bombay.
Here he became dejected as his goal to write about Portugal did not
materialize. He wandered through India and reached the town of Pondicherry
which was once controlled by the French Empire. He met Francis Adirubasamy who
became a pivotal character and started the ball rolling to create a book that
is ‘nonfiction’; fact that was
reestablished in other parts of the book with the same fashion. </span>
