I actually believe the correct answer is an adverb clause modifying was.
A is incorrect because the first clause is subordinate; B is incorrect because there is no noun clause in this sentence; C is incorrect because the word modifying school is an adjective, but not an adjective clause; this leaves us with D. We can see the adverb clause 'when the Little Red Schoolhouse began to give way to the consolidated school in the 1920s' which modifies the verb 'was.'
Rainsford needs control of his emotions to overcome his largest conflict, General Zaroff. At first, when he finds out he is going to be hunted, his instinct is to run in a panic, but he stops to look around and get a handle on the situation. Then, when Zaroff finds him hiding in a tree, Rainsford panics again, knowing Zaroff is playing with him. Once more, he controls his emotions and focuses on forming a plan. Even when the general is hot on his heels with a pack of dogs, Rainsford keeps his calm. Clearly, his self-control helps him win the game.

False. Characterization is the act of creating or constructing a character, including personality, dialouge and appearance.
It is the story of events that actually happened during a specific time of the authors life.
The African American Dream has been deferred in the poem "Deferred" along with the consequences of procrastinate them, thus the poem was made to help people live the lives they dream of having.
Langston Hughes was a black man during a time period in which African-Americans were considered an inferior group of people, and as a result dreams and goals would have been difficult to realize.
His "Dream Deferred" constitutes a man's expression of his dreams at that tough time.
