Complete the sentence with the appropriate adjective clause:
My cousin Neha still remembers the morning ______.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → when her name was read out at the school assembly
An adjective is a word that describes a noun or a pronoun, for example a tall tree, the food is tasty.
Complete sentence: My cousin Neha still remembers the morning when her name was read out at the school assembly. The clause describes “the morning”, which is a time, and tells which morning Neha remembers.
| Option | What it tells | Example |
|---|---|---|
| (1) where her name was read out at the school assembly | “where” is used after a noun of place, not after a time like “morning” | This is the park where we play cricket. |
| (2) which her name was read out at the school assembly | “which” must be the subject or object of the verb in the clause; “her name” is already the subject of “was read out”, so “which” has no job | The kite which Rohan made got stuck on the water tank. |
| (3) when her name was read out at the school assembly (answer) | “when” begins an adjective clause, which has its own subject and verb, after a noun of time | Sunday is the day when Papa makes puris for breakfast. |
| (4) who her name was read out at the school assembly | “who” is used for people, not for a time like “morning” | The girl who sings in our choir lives in my lane. |
