गौण उपवाक्य (Subordinate Clause) प्रकार विश्लेषण:
•
वाक्य a: *"They lost the election because the voters did not trust them."*
•
हे उपवाक्य निवडणुकीत पराभव का झाला याचे 'कारण' दर्शवते. 'Because' ने सुरू होणारे उपवाक्य हे Adverb Clause of Reason (कारणदर्शक क्रियाविशेषण उपवाक्य) असते. $\rightarrow$ बरोबर.
•
वाक्य b: *"They rewarded the man who rescued their son."*
•
हे उपवाक्य 'the man' या नामाबद्दल अधिक माहिती देते. नामाचे वर्णन करणारे उपवाक्य हे Adjective Clause (विशेषण उपवाक्य) असते, Adverb Clause नव्हे. $\rightarrow$ अयोग्य.
•
वाक्य c: *"The play flopped in the way that the critics had predicted."*
•
नाटक कशा रीतीने फ्लॉप झाले याची 'पद्धत/रीत' हे उपवाक्य दर्शवते, म्हणून हे Adverb Clause of Manner (रीतीवाचक क्रियाविशेषण उपवाक्य) आहे. $\rightarrow$ बरोबर.

English Explanation / स्पष्टीकरण:
Correct Answer: Option 2 (a and c only)
Analysis of Subordinate Clauses:
•
Sentence a: *"They lost the election because the voters did not trust them."*
•
The subordinate clause is introduced by the subordinating conjunction *because* and answers "Why did they lose?". It is an Adverb Clause of Reason / Cause.
•
Sentence b: *"They rewarded the man who rescued their son."*
•
The subordinate clause is introduced by relative pronoun *who* and qualifies the antecedent noun *the man*. It is an Adjective (Relative) Clause, NOT an adverb clause.
•
Sentence c: *"The play flopped in the way that the critics had predicted."*
•
Modifies the verb *flopped* by showing the manner in which the failure unfolded. It functions as an Adverb Clause of Manner.
•
Conclusion: Sentences a and c contain adverb clauses, making Option 2 the correct answer.
