Answer 2

Recognize an adverb clause when you see one.
An adverb clause will meet three requirements:

First, it will contain a subject and verb.
You will also find a subordinate conjunction that keeps the clause from expressing a complete thought.
Finally, you will notice that the clause answers one of these three adverb questions: How? When? or Why?
