answer
part c1 (page 88) 2 4 5 6 7 9
step2: relative pronouns: that, which, who, whom and whose
here i’d like you to know in what circumstances that, which, who, whom or whose is used, or can be left out.
1. read the three sentences in point 1 on page 10 and point out the antecedent in each sentence. ( the story, the cake and the book, all of which refer to things. ) when the antecedent is/are a thing/things, we usually use the relative pronoun that or which to introduce the attributive clause.the function of that/which in the attributive clause is the object.
2. read the three sentences in point 2 and point out the antecedent in each sentence. (a friend, the girl and the teacher.) when the antecedents are people, an attributive clause is often introduced by who. who is used as the subject in the clause. from tip box, we know that can also be used to refer to a person/people.
3. now let’s come to point 3. the antecedents in the two sentences are the teacher and the student. whom or who is used as the object in the attributive clause. in such case, who is more usual in oral english, while whom is more formal and often used in written english.
4. in point 4, the antecedents in the three sentences are all the birthday presents, something and the girl. all the presents and something refer to things, and the girl refers to a person. the relative pronouns that/which and that/who/whom are all used as the objects in the attributive clause and can be left out.
5. read the following sentences:
she has a brother. i can’t remember his name.
what does the word his refer to? (the brother’s.)
she has a brother whose name i can’t remember.
point out the antecedent here and make sure what the function of whose is in the attributive clause.
in point 5, whose in the first sentence refers to the girl’s and the club’s in the second sentence. when the antecedent functions as an attributive in the clause, whose is used and it should be used before a noun.
6. complete the conversation on page 11 individually. then read it in groups of three to check your answers.
