Question

Which words in the sentence are the complete adjective clause? Ask him to tell the story, which is about wild ponies.

a. ask him
b. which is about wild ponies
c. to tell the story, which is about wild ponies
d. to tell the story

Answer 1

The complete adjective clause in the sentence is 'which is about wild ponies', which provides additional information about the noun 'story'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete adjective clause in the sentence provided is which is about wild ponies. An adjective clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and provides more information about a noun. This clause modifies the noun 'story' and tells us what kind of story it is. Therefore, option b is the correct answer. The subject of the adjective clause is 'which' and the verb is 'is' while 'about wild ponies' acts as the subject complement.

Answer 2

Adjective clauses provide information about some noun in the sentence, which is the same function as adjectives.
So an adjective would be "to tell the interesting story", where interesting gives some information about the story.

Similarly, "which is about wild ponies" is the whole adjective phrase - and this is the correct answer- gives some information about the story.
