According to the Steward, Captain Keeney refuses to turn back because he is determined to get more oil first. Mrs. Keeney, as described in the stage directions when she first appears is nervous, unhappy, and submissive. Mrs. Keeney admits to her husband that she expected to enjoy the voyage, but instead she feels like a prisoner. Mrs. Keeney sees that her husband is a hard man who can be brutal toward his crew in pursuit of his goal. Keeney's pride pushes him to put his goal of getting the oil ahead of any feelings for his wife. He needs to get the oil to feel strong and to prove himself. At the same time, he denies that his wife is really going mad because he can't believe she is actually losing her mind and because she insisted on making the voyage in the first place.

Identify the type of subordinate clause in the following sentence. The dog that chewed up my new shoes is named Oscar. noun adje
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Adjective subordinate clause

Explanation:

A subordinate clause, also called a dependent clause, is a clause that can't stand by itself as a simple sentence, unlike an independent clause. Subordinate clauses provide additional information and can function as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb.

<em>The dog </em><em><u>that chewed up my new shoes</u></em><em> </em><em>is named Oscar. </em>

In the given sentence we have an adjective subordinate clause because it additionally describes the noun that comes before it - <em>the dog</em>. Adjective clauses begin with a relative pronoun or a relative adverb, in this case, the pronoun <em>that</em>.

Read the following thesis statement that compares two texts.
mr_godi [17]
The answer is A. Kotowski cites four scholars who specialize in the study of volcanoes, whereas Ferguson cites only the encyclopedia.

The given thesis is arguing that Kotowski is more reliable than Ferguson because he backs up his statements with a greater number of more reliable sources. In choice A, Kotowski is not only using three more sources than Ferguson, but they're sources from reputable specialists, making them higher quality sources as well.

If you're still confused, you can use elimination to rule out the others:

B. B doesn't work because there's no mention of the rate of volcanic change in the thesis. Although the statement may be true, it's not evidence to support the writer's claim.

C. C doesn't work because there's no mention of the frequency of volcanic eruption in the thesis. Again, although the statement may be true, it doesn't necessarily support the writer's claim.

D. D doesn't work because there's no mention of the similarities between the two pieces. If the thesis is arguing that Kotowski's work is different from Ferguson's because it's more reliable, it'd be counterproductive for the writer to mention the similarities of the work. Therefore, this "evidence" has no relation to the thesis and would not support the author's thesis.

Hope this helps!
