Question 6 • TRECA Applied English 9-221

Which sentence contains a restrictive clause?

Answer
A
The dance performance, which took place on a bridge, was quite interesting.
B
Adela (who is a star athlete) has joined the debate club.
C
The tree that fell in our driveway will be removed on Tuesday.
D
The cat—which has one green eye and one blue eye—likes to chase mice.

Explanation

A restrictive clause identifies which tree the sentence means: “that fell in our driveway” specifies the tree to be removed. It is essential to the sentence’s meaning and has no surrounding commas. The clauses in A, B, and D add extra information, so they are nonrestrictive.
