Answer :

In the given examples, the one that contains a subordinating conjunction is: A. Charlotte swept the floor after she finished cooking. Explanation: 1. A subordinating conjunction is a word that connects a subordinate (dependent) clause to a main (independent) clause. 2. In this example, "after" is the subordinating conjunction that introduces the dependent clause "she finished cooking," which cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. 3. The main clause is "Charlotte swept the floor," which can stand alone as a complete sentence. 4. Therefore, option A is the correct choice containing a subordinating conjunction.
