Question

Which sentences contain dependent clauses? Select two options.

Answer 1

Answer: 3, 4

Explanation:

Dependent clauses are inside of independent clauses. Dependent clauses will contain a subject and a verb. In #3, the dependent clause is “when she graduates.” This is because “she” is the subject and “graduates” is the verb. In #4, the dependent clause is “in order to get the job.” In this clause, “job” is our subject and “get” is our verb. Also, neither clause expresses a complete thought, or is a full sentence.
