Two of your answers are now right.
2 and 3 are correct.
1 is actually C.
1. The dependent clause that best completes the sentence is "even though his mother prefers Chinese food." To identify the dependent clause that completes the sentence, you need to look for a clause that cannot stand alone as a complete sentence and relies on the main clause to convey its complete meaning. In this case, the dependent clause "even though his mother prefers Chinese food" cannot stand alone as a complete sentence and is dependent on the main clause "Jeff and his parents went to a nice Italian restaurant" to form a complete thought.
2. The independent clause in the given options is "Amy will go." An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a complete sentence because it expresses a complete thought and does not rely on any other clause to convey its meaning. In this case, "Amy will go" is a complete sentence on its own.
3. The word that introduces the dependent clause in the given sentence is "when." A dependent clause is a clause that relies on the main clause to form a complete thought and cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. In this case, the dependent clause is "when we finish the race," and it is introduced by the subordinating conjunction "when."
