Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable adverb clause of place:
Could you please tell me ___________?
a) The Grand Hyatt
b) of your home
c) where you’re currently put up
d) None of the above

Answer 1

Hint: An adverb is a word that modifies something other than a noun. An adverb is the word class that qualifies verbs or clauses.

Complete answer:
In the given question, we have to find out the correct adverbial clause of place.
Adverb clauses usually begin with subordinate conjunctions (while, since, because, etc.)
Let us thus analyze the options given to us in this question-
Option (a.), ' The Grand Hyatt', refers to a definite article and a noun. Therefore, option (a.) is incorrect as we need an adverb clause of place.
Option (b.), ‘of your home', refers to a phrase. Therefore, option (b.) is incorrect as we need an adverb clause of place.
Option (c.), ‘where you’re currently put up', uses a subordinate conjunction ‘where’ and is an adverbial clause. Therefore, option (c.) is correct.
Option (d.), ‘None of the above', says that none of the options previously given are correct.
Therefore, option (d.) is incorrect as option (c.) is correct.

Note:
 In this question, it will be helpful for the student to recall the concept of adverbial clauses. An adverbial clause is that subordinate clause that functions as an adverb within the main clause. For example- Before I go to bed, I brush my teeth. The subject of the dependent clause is "I" and the verb is "go". The subordinating conjunction is "before".
