The constant rain had turned the soccer field into a mire, filled with slushy mud that would trap your feet and pull you down.

Neither coach wanted to let her team play in such a swamp.

I believe these are the two sentences that show you what more means. Hope I helped!

Answer:

<em>1. (...) Filled with slushy mud that would trap your feet and pull you down. </em>

<em>2. Neither coach wanted to let her team play in such a swamp.</em>

Explanation:

In the excerpt, there is several surrounding information to the word "mire" that helps us understand its meaning, but phrase 1 and 2, are the ones that illustrate it better. From these sentences, we infer that the constant rain had turned the soccer field into an area where water collects, a swampy or boggy area, that is not pleasant to be in, that is to say, a "mire".

Which is a dependent clause?
KonstantinChe [14]
A dependent clause is a clause that cannot stand on its own. This means that it does not have a subject that matches a verb to form a complete sentence or thought. The correct answer for this case, would be A.

In the clause, “during intermission, while we were discussing the performance” there are prepositional phrases that need to be accompanied by an independent clause to make a complete sentence.
A way to potentially complete this sentence would be “ during intermission, when we were discussing the performance, we ordered a popcorn from the concession stand in the theater.”
