In chapter 40, Sal receives a gift chicken from Ben. Chickens are Sal's favorite animal. However, this is not the only thing that is interesting about the chicken. The name of the chicken is Blackberry, which is interesting for two reasons. The first one is that blackberries remind Sal of her mother, and the feeling of fondness and sweetness associated with her. The irony, however, is that the chicken also reminds her of kissing, based on the story of the girl who claimed that kissing tasted like chicken. When Sal kissed a tree, she also felt a trace of blackberry, which reminded her of her mother.

Choose the sentence that contains an ADJECTIVE clause.
svlad2 [7]
I believe that sentence 2 is the correct answer.

The ball, that was yellow and made of rubber, bounced down the road.

Our clause is : "that was yellow and made of rubber." This describes the features of the ball, which is the noun. Adjectives describes nouns therefore this sentence would be the correct answer!

I visited Anna at the hospital every day for the next few weeks. I saw her mood (3) _____ between anger and quit depression.
Alja [10]

Venture. This is because Flagrant is an offensive sort of behavior which would not fit this sort of statement.

Turmoil. This is because venture is to, in a sense, travel or explore or journey. Turmoil can be remembered as inner turmoil or inner disarray, a sort of chaos within oneself.

Hope this helps!
