A. It is an independent clause because it forms a complete thought and has a subject and a verb.
Answer:
C) the detail with which he describes the suffering of his people
Explanation:
The speaker begins by listing several people in the community that had died. He lamented the fact that the old men were all dead and the young ones had scampered into the mountains. He talked about the fact that they and their children were all left with no protection from the elements.
He decided to go on a mission to find his children. Finally, he exclaimed that his heart was sick and that he was tired of fighting the war. He describes the suffering of his people with so many details.
I feel like b isn’t grammatically correct, so I’ll go with a.
Without adjectives, we could not describe things. Color would be less precious to us: there would be cars, but not red cars or blue cars or black cars.
