Dependent clause means it needs help. I remember it like this.. I need my girlfriend, without her I don't get anywhere so...

D. It's not a complete thought

Answer from: didilove456

D) Because David loved adventure, he resolved that one day he would explore the Alaskan wilderness.

Explanation:

A clause is a group of related words that have at least a subject and a verb. When the clause can stand on its own, and have full meaning, the clause is independent; but when it does not express a complete idea on its own, and therefore, needs another clause to make sense, it is dependent.

In Sentence D, while “he resolved that one day he would explore the Alaskan wilderness” is an independent clause, “Because David loved adventure” is a dependent clause because it does not express a complete idea on its own: this clause is meant to be part of a bigger sentence and not to stand alone as a full sentence.

And if the clay we are created

Answer from: Quest

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)

The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. he had been in the war in libya and wore two wound-stripes. he said that if the thing went well he would see that i was decorated. i said i hoped it would go well but that he was too kind. i asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a soldier to show me. i went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. the drivers were with it and i left them there. what effect does hemingway’s limited use of adjectives have? it slows down the narration by interrupting the action. it makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful. it makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere. it prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.
