Select the sentence that contains a noun clause.

My dad got me tickets to the hockey game for my birthday. I was anxiously awaiting his arrival home from his office. Since he couldn't leave work on time, he didn't have time for dinner. My top priority was that we get to the game on time.

Answer:

The sentence that contains a noun clause is D. My top priority was that we get to the game on time.

Step-by-step explanation:

A noun clause is a clause -a group of words that includes a subject and a verb that work together as one part of speech- that plays the role of a noun. Noun clauses are always going to be dependent clauses that cannot stand alone and could function as a subject, object, preposition, adjective complement or subject complement, like in sentence D. The noun clause in sentence D is that we get to the game on time, that is functioning as a subject complement of the verb was.
