Warming up Warming up by dis
32、covering useful words and expressions Please turn to page 3. Do exercises 1, 2 and 3 first. Please check your answers against your classmates.Warming up by explaining Now, class, since youve read the passage, could you explain to me how to use the phrase “belong to”? The word “to” here is a preposit
33、ion, indicating the possession, and is always followed by nouns or pronoun. Look at Ex 3.II. Learning about Attributive Clause1. What is an adjective Clause?An adjective clause is a dependent clause which takes the place of an adjective in another clause or phrase. Like an adjective, an adjective cl
34、ause modifies a noun or pronoun, answering questions like “which?” or “what kind of?” Consider the following examples:Adjective the red coat Adjective clause the coat which I bought yesterday Like the word “red” in the first example, the dependent clause “which I bought yesterday” in the second exam
35、ple modifies the noun “coat.” Note that an adjective clause usually comes after what it modifies, while an adjective usually comes before.In formal writing, an adjective clause begins with the relative pronouns “who(m),” “that,” or “which.” In informal writing or speech, you may leave out the relati
36、ve pronoun when it is not the subject of the adjective clause, but you should usually include the relative pronoun in formal, academic writing:informal The books people read were mainly religious. formal The books that people read were mainly religious. informal Some firefighters never meet the peop
37、le they save. formal Some firefighters never meet the people whom they save. Here are some more examples of adjective clauses:the meat which they ate was tainted This clause modifies the noun “meat” and answers the question “which meat?”.Theyre talking about the movie which made him cry This clause
38、modifies the noun “movie” and answers the question “which movie?”.They are searching for the student who borrowed the book The clause modifies the pronoun “student” and answers the question “which student?”.Did I tell you about the author whom I met? The clause modifies the noun “author” and answers
39、 the question “which author?”.2. Restrictive & non restrictive clauses Do the following pairs of sentences mean the same thing?1a My uncle, who lives in London, is very rich.2b My uncle who lives in London is very rich.2a The policies, which were unpopular, were rejected by the voters.2b The policie
40、s which were unpopular were rejected by the voters.3a My niece, whose husband is out of work, will inherit the house, which I have always treasured.3b My niece whose husband is out of work will inherit the house which I have always treasured.The first sentence in each pair has a non-restrictive clau
41、se within two commas, and the second has a restrictive clause. A non-restrictive clause simply adds more information into the sentence and does not affect the meaning of the main clause: it is therefore bracketed off with commas (1a = an uncle who happens to live in London). Conversely, a restrictiv
42、e clause defines its referent in the main clause more specifically and contributes significantly to the meaning of the sentence. Thus it is that particular uncle who lives in London who is referred to (1b). In 2a, all policies were unpopular and all were rejected, whereas in 2b only the policies tha
43、t were unpopular were rejected. Note that in restrictive clauses the non-human relative pronoun is either that or which, whereas for human referents the relative pronoun can be either who/m or that (the man that/whom I will marry .).3. A test on FORMAL ADJECTIVE CLAUSESDirections: Combine the senten
44、ces. Use formal written English.Use (b) as an adjective clause. Punctuate carefully. 1) (a) An antecedent is a word. (b) A pronoun refers to this word. An antecedent _2) (a) The blue whale is considered the largest animal that has ever lived.(b) It can grow to 100 feet and 150 tons. The blue whale _
