The purposes of comic relief would be A. And D. Adding comic relief to a story can ease the tension of the story, and there should be a balance between seriousness and comedy.

The other options may work for CERTAIN stories, but not the general idea of the concept.

I hope this helps you!

Read this excerpt from "Crossing the Bar" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Which two lines are examples of a dependent clause?

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:

A) First, a clause is an incomplete sentence or a group of words that can't stand alone or one that does not have meaning standing by itself.

B) Furthermore, it must have a verb and a subject.

A verb, if you recall is an action word while a subject is "the person or thing being referred to".

Looking at the clauses in option B we can see that they both meet the above conditions.

Let's see clause one - "And may there be no moaning of the bar, "

It is clear that the verb here is "moaning" while the subject is "the Bar".

It's clear to see that these group of words meet the conditions given in A and B above because left by themselves, they make no meaning.

Let's take a look at the second clause:

"When I put out to sea,"

"I" here is the subject. It is a pronoun. A pronoun is simply a word that can be used instead of the noun. That is a noun can easily but inserted in the place of "I". Hence, we have "I" as the subject.

"Put Out" here is a verb which means to relocate.

So "When I put out to sea" also meets the conditions in A and B above.

Cheers!
