Answer and Explanation:
A meaningful drill suitable for teaching students what a substantive clause is would be a list with several sentences where some contain the substantive clause and others do not. In this case, students should identify the sentences that contained the substantive clauses and underline these clauses.
It is important to point out that the noun clause is the dependent clause that replaces the noun, which is the class of words that gives name to any element. An example of this noun clause can be seen in the sentence "She was frightened by the sight in front of her," where the term "the sight in front of her" replaces a noun and is therefore a noun clause.
In addition, it is important to remember that a meaningful drill is an exercise where the resolution depends on the understanding of the subject discussed.

The correct answer is D. Compound-complex sentence
Explanation:
Complex sentences different from simple or compound sentences always include a dependent clause connected to an independent clause. In the case of the sentence presented "Before the car wash" is the dependent clause because this does not express a complete idea and includes the word "before" that is a subordinating conjunction and "Tanya made signs and Gabe signed up volunteers" is the independent clause as this expresses a complete thought. Besides this, a sentence is compound if two ideas of the same importance are included and joined by a conjunction such as and, or, but, which occurs in "Tanya made signs and Gabe signed up volunteers". This means the sentence includes the elements of a complex sentence (independent-dependent clause) and a compound sentence (two independent clauses) and therefore it is a compound-complex sentence.
