Question

Identify the adverb clause and the word it modifies.

Any student who received a good grade was invited to the ice cream social

Answer 1

Adverbs refer to the words which modify the verb, adjectives or adverbs, expressing a relation of a cause, time, place and so forth.

Whereas, an adverb clause refers to the group of words which works as an adverb. An adverb clause begins with the subordinating conjunction such as if, although, because and so forth. Lastly, it includes subject and predicate.

An adverbial clause in the above sentence is "who received a good grade".

Subordinate conjunction in the above sentence is 'who' and modifies 'any student'.

Answer 2

An adverb clause is a group of words that works as an adverb (which answers the questions when?, where?, why?, how?, how much? and under what condition?) and can modify verbs, adverbs and adjectives.

So the correct answer is "who received a good grade".
