Question 4 • CMS 2025-2026 English I CREDIT RECOVERY

Which sentence contains a nonrestrictive clause?

Answer
A
The old apron, which belonged to Mama, is torn.
B
Be sure to watch that movie I gave you.
C
Take a left after that house with the yellow fence.
D
The man who drives our bus is ill.

Explanation

A nonrestrictive clause adds extra information that is not needed to identify the noun, and it is usually set off by commas. In “The old apron, which belonged to Mama, is torn,” the clause “which belonged to Mama” adds extra information about the apron. The other relative clauses identify which movie or man is meant, so they are restrictive.
