B Grammar :
Non-defining and defining relative clauses.
Example:
-New York Harbour, which is ice-free in all seasons, is one of the largest and finest habours in the world.
- The book which I am going to lend you is given to me by the author.
> Notes: There are two kinds of Relative Clauses.
* We use defining relative clauses to give essential information to define or identify the thing we are talking about Obviously, this is only necessary if there is more than one thing involved
* We use non-defining relative clauses not to definite or identify things but to add more information to the things we are talking about Without this additional information, the sentence still makes sense because it is already clear what things we are talking about
Exercise 1: Underline the relative clauses in these sentences, and indicate if they are defining (D) or non-defining (ND) Add a comma where required.
1 Washington D.C which is located on the East Coast of the United States has many interesting and historical places to visit
2 Brasilia which is located on the Grannadá River became the capital of Brazil in 1960
3 Mexico City which has a population of nearly 20,000,000 is the largest metropolitan area in the world
4 Seoul which hosted the 1988 Summer Olympics is well-known for its shopping centres
5 Kyoto which used to be the capital of Japan has many temples
Answer keys:
All the relative clauses in this exercise are non-defining because they serve to give additional information only
1 Washington D.C., which is located on the East Coast of the United States, has many interesting and historical places to visit Brasilia, which is located on the Grannadá River, became the capital of Brazil in 1960
3 Mexico City, which has a population of nearly 20,000,000, is the largest metropolitan area in the world
4 Seoul, which hosted the 1988 Summer Olympics, is well-known for its shopping centres
5 Kyoto, which used to be the capital of Japan, has many temples
Connecting contrasting ideas: ATHOUGH
Example: Although New York is not the capital of the USA It is the home of the United Nations
- T introduce the grammar point through eliciting from Ss
- T explains why we call them non-defining relative clauses
- T gives more examples
- T elicits the rules from the students
- T has Ss read the sentences carefully then discuss in order to decide where the relative clauses are - T explains the relative clause carefully and ask Ss to decide which clauses are defining or non defining clauses - Ss work alone to the task
- T goes around to control and collect Ss’ mistakes

Notes:
+ Form: The subordinate clause with “although” can come either before or after the main clause Don’t use “although” together with “but”
+Meaning: in spite of the fact that
+Use: We use this conjunction to contrast ideas Although/ though + clause
Despite/ In spite of + noun phrase/ v-ing
Ex: I prefer living in the countryside although there is not much to there
Exercise 2: Combine the following sentences using ALTHOUGH There is not much to in the countryside I prefer living in the countryside
2 There is a lot of pollution in Los Angeles It is an ideal place to live
3 The shops are crowded People are not buying much
4 The city is a favourite tourist destination for many people It has its problems
