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.

“Around me everything was dancing a dance of death.”
sesenic [268]

Answer:

<em>"Around me everything was dancing a dance of death" </em>is a "personification" when it comes to<em> figurative language</em>. It means that people around Elie Wiesel were dying and nobody paid attention nor cared.

Explanation:

The situation above happened during "Night 84."

At this time, Elie was exhausted from marching in the snow that<em> he fell asleep for a long time</em> when they were finally told to rest. He was only awakened when <u>his father's frozen fingers patted on his cheeks.</u> His father wanted him to wake up because they were to march again.<em> Sleeping would mean dying in the snow. </em>Thus, Elie described the situation happening around him with the figurative language above. It is a personification because it gives human being personality to "death" that it can dance <em>("dance of death").</em>
