As the years went by

her prose became more interesting

and soon, she was offered

a book deal

✅ Correct Option: 1

An adjective clause modifies a noun. 'As the years went by' is actually an adverb clause of time. None of the options are strictly adjective clauses, but 'As the years went by' is the only subordinate clause present, likely the intended answer.

Note: The sentence does not contain a true adjective clause. We have picked the only dependent clause (adverb clause) as the most likely intended answer.
