The subject of the independent clause in the sentence we are analyzing here is "The only people", and the verb is "were", as further explained below.
<h3>What is an independent clause?</h3>
An independent clause is a group of words that has a subject and a predicate. It conveys a full thought, which means it can be completely understood, without the need for other clauses.
The sentence we are analyzing here contains one independent clause and two subordinate clauses. The problem is that one of those subordinate clauses is placed between the subject and the verb of the independent clause, which makes it a bit confusing:
- Independent clause: The only people were a few Tarrageishan cannibals.
- First subordinate clause: who witnessed Duncan's misadventure.
- Second subordinate clause: who happened to be passing by.
Now that we know which one is the independent clause, we can easily identify its subject and verb:
- Subject - The only people.
With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.

Letter D because it starts with “In Conclusion”. I am assuming that number 3 is the last sentence in the paragraph.
Dear Editor.
My name is Tanvi and I decided to write this letter to report a serious situation that is happening in our community and I believe that in many others scattered in New Delhi. This situation is the constant attack on the elderly.
As we know, the elderly deserve respect and peace, since they work and worked hard to create the country in which we live. Many elderly people live alone for several reasons, mainly due to family abandonment, which is already a stressful situation for them who need to rest and have a peaceful life. The elderly, in general, are fragile and living alone leaves them extremely vulnerable, which allows evildoers to attack them.
Most of these malefactors want to steal something of value from the elderly, placing them in a situation of extreme stress and even acting with physical violence against them.
These attacks happen frequently in our region. For this reason, I would like to ask you to inform your audience about this problem, making them aware and allowing them to draw the attention of the authorities in relation to this.
I know that you will be helping the elderly in our community in the best possible way and I thank you for your time.
Sincerely.
J. Tanvi
