Question 5 • ARC English 10 Semester 2 CR/Summer

Which sentence contains an essential adjective clause?

Answer
A
The sponsor who pays for our uniforms deserves advertising at each game.
B
Our sponsors, who fund the team, are invited to the opening game.
C
After explaining the sponsorship levels, they agreed to join at the silver level.
D
During halftime, the speaker announced the sponsors.

Explanation

An essential adjective clause identifies the noun it modifies and is not set off by commas. In A, “who pays for our uniforms” identifies which sponsor deserves advertising, so it is essential. In B, the clause “who fund the team” is set off by commas and adds extra information, so it is nonessential.
