Preguntas sobre ejemplos de oraciones con, y la definición y uso de "Clay"

A: a clay figurine is a small statue of someone/something made of clay.

A: It is not the clearest sentence. Apparently they got some clay, then took it up the mountain to where their tree was, and they were wearing their second best pair of pants.

Using "dragged" indicates the clay was heavy to carry.

Saying "second best" means these pants are almost their best pair of pants, almost their nicest pair of pants. They have one other pair of pants which are even nicer, but these are their second best pair of pants.

Calling them "city pants" means that they are nice enough to wear in public, to make a good impression, to look nice around other people. It is not a common thing to say in modern day, but they used to say that years ago. Especially for people who lived out in the country, their everyday clothes were "work clothes" and were chosen for practical reasons like being strong/durable and warm or protective while doing hard jobs. But these types of clothes might not look very nice. So they might have a much nicer set of clothes for when they needed to go to the city for business or for social situations where they need to make a good impression. So "city clothes" or "church clothes" would be their nicer, special occasion clothes.
