1. In which sentence is the underlined adjectival clause punctuated correctly? A. Mrs. Cruz is the advisor, whose opinion matter
harkovskaia [24]

Answer: A

Explanation:

Adjectival clauses also known as relative clauses are dependent clauses that describe a noun in sentences.

Punctuating adjectival clauses can be very problematic because you would have to say whether the adjectival clause in a sentence is essential or non-essential before using commas.

Essential Clause: This kind of adjectival clause is essential to the description of the noun. It is such that the sentence would be meaningless if it were taken out. E.g

The man whose house we just left loves you.

"whose house we just left" is an essential clause because there are many men in the world and without the clause we would not know the man that is being referred to.

Nonessential Clause: This is the opposite of essential clause. It is the kind of clause that a sentence can very much do without. E.g

His wife, who you have met, works at Microsoft.

"Who you have met" does not define the noun in the sentence and the sentence is still very much valid and understandable without the adjectival clause.

The rule is that, sentences with essential adjectival clauses are not punctuated while those with non-essential adjectival clauses are punctuated. As you can see in the examples above.

But with sentences that carry proper nouns e.g names of persons and places, commas are always used before their adjectival clauses because they are unique and do not necessarily need any more information.

That is why option A is the correctly punctuated sentence.

And option C is okay and doesn't need any punctuation.

pantera1 [17]

In Gray's "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" (1751), the speaker reflects on mortality and speculates about the accomplishments of the dead people buried in the churchyard. The poem is an elegy, that is, a lament for the dead.

First of all, the speaker thinks that one of the people buried might have been a good schoolar, or even a good leader for the nation. He also talks about another dead person, in the figure of an old farmer, that might have had a lot of potential to become a great poet.

Furthermore, he believes that death and poverty have saved some people from spreading evil in the world. In addition, the speaker assures that poor people and rich people are born with the same abilities; however, he admits that moral superiority is the only goal that village people have accomplished.
