1.Adjective - modifies soil
2.Direct object of believed
3.Adjective – modifies person
4.Direct object of understands
5.Adverb – modifies left
6.Complement – same as that idea
7.Adverb – modifies work
8.Not a clause – It’s an adverbial prepositional phrase – modifies good. Answers is the object of the preposition and the rest is an internal clause that modifies answers ( 'that' is an understood relative before 'he').
