Answer
A. The animal that we adopted yesterday was a dog.
- Identify which sentence contains an adjective clause.
- An adjective clause modifies a noun, so we need to find a sentence that has a clause that acts as an adjective.
- Option A: The animal that we adopted yesterday was a dog. This sentence contains an adjective clause 'that we adopted yesterday' which modifies 'the animal'.
- Option B: The dog became comfortable fairly quickly. This sentence doesn't have an adjective clause in it.
- Option C: Did you adopt a dog or a cat? This sentence doesn't have an adjective clause in it.
- Option D: The dog might sleep beside my bed tonight. This sentence doesn't have an adjective clause in it.
