Question

Choose whether the following statement is True or False:
The underlined clause in the following sentence is an adjective clause:

Those people that work hard succeed at some point in their lives.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

An adjective clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb, and it functions as an adjective that modifies a noun or a pronoun. Adjective clauses usually begin with relative pronouns such as who, whom, whose or a relative adverb like when, where and so on.
The underlined words "that work hard" forms an adjective clause that modifies the noun "people"; 'that' is a relative pronoun that performs as a subject and "work" is the verb.
Hence the statement is true and option A is correct, B is incorrect.
