We can identify subordinate clauses and verbal phrases in each of the sentences in the following manner:

  1. "that live in this part of the country" - Subordinate clause
  2. "when locusts rub their hind legs against their wings" - Subordinate clause
  3. "to listen to locusts on a hot summer night" - Verbal phrase
  4. "that they make" - Subordinate clause
  5. "but hornets are more threatening" - Subordinate clause
  6. "hearing the buzz of a horne" - Verbal phrase

<h3>Difference between subordinate clauses and verbal phrases</h3>

A subordinate or dependent clause cannot express a complete thought on its own. To make sense, it needs the main clause the complete its meaning. Subordinate clauses begin with subordinating or relative conjunctions. They also have a subject and a verb.

A verbal phrase does not have a subject. It has a verb, but the phrase itself functions as either an adjective or an adverb in the sentence. Let's compare the two below:

  • Subordinate clause: I left <em>because I wanted to see him</em>.
  • Verbal phrase: <em>Wanting to see him</em>, I left.

Part 4 of 4 - Irrelevant sentences
Vlad [161]

Answer:

B. III.

Explanation:

Irrelevant sentences are those sentences that have no use in the passage they are put or inserted in. In other words, irrelevant sentences are those sentences that can be removed without changing the meaning or intention of the author or passage.

In the given passage, the speaker talks about the declining importance of Math and Science in the British education system. Amidst the failing high school curriculum, the inclusion of the statement <u><em>"In the short term, it may be necessary to make use of the universities' resources"</em></u> is unnecessary as it does not add or take away any meaning or importance to the whole passage.

Thus, the correct answer is option B (sentence III).

"Justin decided to try an alternative approach, one that wouldn't remind him of all the ways he had failed."
Arturiano [62]
If you think/remind yourself of failing, it will surley happen again.

You need to think of how you can do it, and try a different approach because sometimes self-confidence can help in certain situations.
