उत्तर

During their first encounter, Kemp was amenable to the idea of understanding a little more about the invisibility condition of the Invisible Man. Kemp scientific curiosity was tickled by the idea of an invisible man and he was keen on learning how Griffin had achieved the stupendous feat but as the latter began talking about abusing his powers and establishing a reign of terror, Kemp was alarmed. He devised a plan to apprehend the criminal but it failed. Kemp came to think of him as mad, inhuman, purely selfish and willing to go to any lengths in order to further his means. Kemp understood that the Invisible Man was only interested in working to his advantage and safety and in this path to brutal self-seeking, he could wound and kill people if need be. He would become unstoppable thanks to the panic generated in people by his invisibility. Kemp decided to stop this deranged man from achieving his goal of establishing a reign of terror and killing at will. He understood that the Invisible Man's humanity had disappeared and he had become a monster. Kemp comes across as a man with noble intentions, all he wanted to do was help people from the Invisible Man but also in a way, help Griffin not become the monster he wanted to be.

Identify one example of a main clause and one example of a dependent clause from the content below:

        Troy was filled with the sight of leaping flames and the sound of shouting and the noise of weapons and the cries of weeping women. The sleeping Trojans sprang out of their beds, but they were taken by surprise. Their enemies were right inside their walls, and many of the Trojans were killed before they could put on their armour and seize their weapons.

        A bright light lit up the night sky as palaces and houses, temples and towers, went up in flames. The Trojans fought as well as they could, but it was all in vain. Old King Priam was killed with all his brave sons. Hector’s wife and his old mother and sister were carried off as slaves by the conquerors. Their fate was in contrast to Helen’s when King Menelaus rushed through the city, looking for her, and found her in her palace. She hung her head in shame and sorrow as she faced her former husband. Her voice was choked with emotion and she could not speak. But Menelaus forgave her and she went back with him, for it was only Aphrodite who had turned her heart away from her home and her husband and her child.

       When morning came, nothing was left of the proud, rich city that had resisted attack for ten years.
