2.Samir lives on Green Street.

5.after the end of the school year

Answer 1

Answer:

1 3 5

Explanation:

Whenever I go to the movies, I buy popcorn.

I buy popcorn is the main clause. The subordinate clause is Whenever I go to the movies. It's the one you want.

2 is a complete sentence. I think you are after subordinate clauses.

3 A tornado tearing through town [destroyed the library]. This one counts.

4 [It didn't look cloudy], but it's likely to rain that day. These two are main clauses, they don't count.

5 After the end of the school year is a subordinate clause. It counts.
