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.
