Which of the following is a dependent clause? a. he talks loudly b. even though the sun had gone down c. she walked outside d. come to dinner

B. Even though the sun had gone down.

Why? A dependent clause cannot stand alone. So, you are trying to find which one of the options is lacking a part. A, C, and D are all independent clauses, so they can stand alone. B is lacking a subject (Him, her, me). Adding an independent clause will fix the subject issue.

the answer should be d) he was one of those young thousands who greeted the war with a certain amount of relief, welcoming the liberation from webs of tangled emotion" since it is the best option because it shows his desire to free himself.

hope this answer you! have a great day.
