Answer:

The Outsider

Explanation:

The Outsider Tom gazed wonderingly around the room, taking his time as to not miss a detail. A rather high foot table in front of the redwood coloured three-seater sofa. It matched the walls of the room that resembled a log cabin in colour and certain aspects of the furniture. A grand fireplace cut into the centre of the wall furthest from the door, a single seat next to it and a television on an angle so it could be seen from the sofa and the seat. The people were all around looking at Tom, the flickering glow of the fire made their smiles seem warmer and the atmosphere in the room was one of happiness and curiosity, as they couldn't seem to take their eyes from the youngster. Tom sat silently, wanting not to disturb or upset them; he was slightly intimidated by the warmth of everyone here. The place from where he'd come was never like this. There were no smiles and there was no warmth at that place, security was never considered and privacy was a non-factor.

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The adverbial clause is "when they went there" and the verb it modifies is "would find", with 'would' being the auxiliary or helping verb.

Explanation:

Adverbial clauses are groups of words that function as an adverb in a sentence. They give an explanation or extra detail about the verb and are dependent clauses, meaning they cannot be used independently as a full sentence.

In the given sentence <em>"when they went there, they would find work",</em> the dependent clause and adverb clause is "when they went there". This clause also helps explain or provide more information for the main clause "they would find work".

Thus, the adverbial clause is "when they went there" and the verb it modifies is "would find", with 'would' being the auxiliary or helping verb.
