Answer:

1) C

2) A

Explanation:

1

A phrase is a group of words that don't form a sentence.

All sentences are complete sentences except C. "a lovely girl" is a group of words that don't form a complete thought.

2

A clause is a group of words with a subject and a predicate. All examples have no verb and no subject. Therefore, A is the correct answer because it has a simple subject, Sally, and a simple predicate, is.

3

There is no underlined clause..?

An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone, forming a complete sentence. In all these examples, the independent clause follows the subordinate (depenent) clause after the comma.
