Answer 1

The sentences that use an adverbial clause are:

1. **Javy was named captain of the team despite it being his first year on the team.**
2. **So that we would have enough left for tomorrow, we only used half of the vegetables in the salad.**

The adverbial clause in the first sentence is "despite it being his first year on the team," though it's worth noting that "despite" leads to a prepositional phrase with a gerund rather than a traditional adverbial clause. The second sentence contains the adverbial clause "So that we would have enough left for tomorrow," which provides the purpose for the action in the main clause.
