NON-­‐DEFINING  RELATIVE  CLAUSES

Non-­‐defining  relative  clauses  are  used  in  writing  but  are  not  used  frequently  in  conversation.  There  is  an  important  difference  between  defining  and  non-­‐defining  relative  clauses.  Defining  clauses  give  important  information  which  tells  us  what  is  being  referred  to,but,      Non-­‐defining  clauses  add  extra  information,  separated  by  commas  in  writing,  and  intonation  in  speaking.  The  relative  pronoun  cannot  be  left  out  in  a  non-­‐defining  clause.      

Defining  :  I  have  three    uncles  who  are  living  in  Africa.

In  the  other  types  of  conditionals,  we  cannot  use  when  instead  of  if.  

EVEN  IF  

Even  if  emphasises  that  something  will  happen,  would  happen  or  would  have  happened  whatever  the

So/As  long  as  and  providing/provided  (that)  can  be  used  instead  of  if  to  express  a  condition.

GET  USED  TO  +V1  =  ACCUSTOMED  TO  +V1  

Be  used  to    and    be  accustomed  to  have  the  same  meaning.  

Be  used  to  is  an  expression.  It  is  not  a  tense.  If  I  say  "I  am  used  to  Tahiti",  it  is  like  saying  "I  am  accustomed  to  

Tahiti."  

Do  not  confuse  be  used  to  with  with  the  special  construction  used  to  do.  They  have  different  meanings.  

Why  do  we  use  -­‐ing  for  a  verb  after  be  used  to?  Because  we  always  use  -­‐ing  for  a  verb  after  a  preposition  -­‐  and  

the  to  is  

 a  preposition.  

The  be  used  to  expression  is  for  talking  about  something  that  is  familiar  to  us  or  easy  for  us.  For  example:  

� I  am  used  to  driving  on  the  left.  

It  means  that  it  is  not  a  problem  for  me  to  drive  on  the  left  of  the  road.  I  am  Turkish.  In  Turkey,  people  drive  on

Now  I  am  living  in  the  UK  where  people  drive  on  the  left.  Of  course,  I  drive  on  the  left  in  the  UK,  but  when  I  go  to  Turkey  

 it  is  easy  for  me  to  drive  on  the  right  because  "I  am  used  to  it".

Emphatic  pronouns  When  reflexive  pronouns  are  used  to  put  emphasis  on  a  particular  noun  they  are  called  emphatic  pronouns.  

He  himself  told  me  this.  I  finished  the  project  myself.  They  themselves  admitted  their  mistake.  We  ourselves  witnessed  the  accident.  Notes:  The  emphatic  pronouns  cannot  be  used  as  subjects.  It  is  therefore  wrong  to  say:  John  and  myself  went  there.  Herself  swam  in  the  river.  I  invited  herself  to  tea.  

The  correct  sentences  are  as  follows:  John  and  I  went  there.  

Page 58: GLOBAL INSIGHT B2 MODULE 1 LIVING ABROAD 1.1 …€¦ · GLOBAL INSIGHT B2 MODULE 1 LIVING ABROAD ... relative clause) The book is ... room. Their mother got angry

She  swam  in  the  river.  I  invited  her  to  tea.  

Difference  between  reflective  and  emphatic  pronouns  A  pronoun  is  a  reflexive  one  if  the  action  of  the  subject  reflects  upon  the  doer.  Emphatic  pronouns,  on  the  other  hand,    

are  used  to  just  emphasize  the  action  of  the  subject.  

He  cut  himself.  (Reflexive:  here  the  subject  and  object  refer  to  the  same  person.)  He  himself  cut  the  pizza.  (Emphatic:  here  the  emphatic  pronoun  himself  merely  puts  emphasis  on  the  noun  he.)  I  spoke  to  the  manager  myself.  (Emphatic)  You  must  blame  yourself  for  the  accident.  (Reflexive)  

Note  that  an  emphatic  pronoun  can  be  removed  from  the  sentence  and  the  core  meaning  would  not  be  affected.    

A  reflexive  pronoun,  on  the  other  hand,  is  indispensable.  The  sentence  wouldn’t  make  complete  sense  if  you  remove    

the  reflexive  pronoun.  

Compare:  He  himself  cut  the  cake.  He  cut  the  cake.  He  cut  himself.  He  cut  …what?  

You  will  have  noticed  that  in  the  first  pair  of  sentences,  the  core  meaning  doesn’t  change  when  the  emphatic  pronoun    

himself  is  removed  from  the  sentence.  In  the  second  pair  of  sentences,  the  meaning  changes  or  becomes  incomplete    

when  the  reflexive  pronoun  is  removed.  

Notes:  If  the  reflexive  pronoun  in  a  sentence  is  replaced  by  the  reciprocal  pronoun  ‘each  other’,  the  meaning  of  the  sentence  

 changes  drastically.  

Compare:  John  and  Peter  blamed  themselves  for  the  loss.  (John  blamed  himself  and  Peter  blamed  himself.)  John  and  Peter  blamed  each  other  for  the  loss.  (John  blamed  Peter  and  Peter  blamed  John.)  

Fill  in  the  correct  reflexive  pronoun  and  write  if  it  is  emphatic  pronoun:

The  museum  will  be  redecorated  by  a  famous  architect.  

B.  FRONTING  AND  INVERSION  

(a)  Fronting  

We  change  the  word  order  in  a  sentence  in  order  to  begin  with  a  clause  that  wouldn't  normally  come  first.  

Where  the  food  is  coming  from,  I  don't  know.  

Difficult  as  it  may  seem,  it  is  not  impossible  to  succeed.  

(b)  Inversion  

We  invert  subject  -­‐  verb  for  emphasis    

Suddenly  down  came  the  snow.  

Up  into  the  air  went  the  fireworks.

C.  IT  IS/  WAS  +  NOUN  +  THAT  +  WHO  +  VERB  CLAUSE  

This  structure  helps  us  to  emphasize  different  parts  of  the  sentence.  In  speech,  intonation  and  pronunciation  also  identify  the  emphasis.  

Example:  Sally  borrowed  my  book  last  night  

� It  was  Sally  who  borrowed  my  book  last  night.  � It  was  last  night  that  Sally  borrowed  my  book.  � It  was  my  book  that  Sally  borrowed  last  night.

E.  ADDING  WORDS  

1.  Own  -­‐  emphasis  on  possessive  adjective  

It  was  my  own  idea  OR  It  was  my  very  own  idea  (  for  stronger  emphasis  on  the  possessive  adjective)  

2.  Very  /  Indeed  

When  used  emphatically,  "very"  means    exactly  /  precisely  

-­‐  At  the  very  same  moment,  the  doorbell  rang.  

-­‐  It  was  very  hot,  indeed!  

3.  AT  ALL  /  IN  THE  LEAST  /  WHATSOEVER  /  REALLY  

(to  emphasize  negatives)  

� It  wasn't  hot  at  all!  � I  wasn't  in  the  least  excited.  � There  was  nothing  to  say  at  all,  really.  � There  was  no  good  left  at  all,  whatsoever.  

4.  THE  -­‐  used  to  emphasize  uniqueness  and  heavily  stressed  in  speech  

-­‐  Surely,  you  don't  mean  the  Brad  Pitt.  

5.  Question  words  ending  in  -­‐ever.  They  add  an  air  of  disbelief.

9.  Repetition  

� Daren  keeps  reading  the  same  page  over  and  over  again.  � I  tried  and  tried  but  it  was  no  use.  � We  walked  and  walked  but  we  couldn't  find  our  way  to  the  hotel.  

CLEFT  =  DIVIDED  

� "Th    There  are  two  major  types  of  cleft  constructions:  it-­‐clefts  and  wh-­‐clefts.  

o it-­‐cleft:  

It's  a  car  I  want.  (I  want  a  car.)  

o wh-­‐cleft:  

What  I  want  is  something  to  drink,  now!  (compare:  I  want  something  to  drink.)  

Clefts  are  used  to  bring  particular  elements  of  the  clause  into  additional  focus  .  .  ..  The  extra  focused  element  

normally    

appears  early  in  it-­‐clefts  and  late  in  wh-­‐clefts.

GRAMMAR  

GRADABLE  ADJECTIVES  &  ADVERBS  

NON-­‐  GRADABLE  ADJECTIVES  &  ADVERBS  

Adjectives  can  be  either  gradable  or  non-­‐gradable  

Gradable  

Gradable  adjectives  are  adjectives  like  ‘cold’  ‘hot’  and  ‘frightened’.  You  can  be  very  cold  or  a  bit  cold.  Gradable  adjectives  show  that  something  can  have  different  degrees.  

Non-­‐gradable  

Non-­‐gradable  adjectives  are  adjectives  like  ‘married’  or  ‘wooden’.  You  can’t  be  very  married  or  a  bit  married.  Non-­‐gradable  adjectives  do  not  have  different  degrees.  

Adjectives  like  ‘terrifying’,  ‘freezing’  ‘amazing’  are  also  non-­‐gradable  adjectives.  They  already  contain  the  idea  of  ‘very’  in  their  definitions  –  ‘freezing’  means  ‘very  cold’  etc.  

Using  adverbs  of  degree  

When  we  use  adverbs  of  degree  to  modify  adjectives  we  usually  have  to  use  different  adverbs  for  gradable  

Page 75: GLOBAL INSIGHT B2 MODULE 1 LIVING ABROAD 1.1 …€¦ · GLOBAL INSIGHT B2 MODULE 1 LIVING ABROAD ... relative clause) The book is ... room. Their mother got angry

and  non-­‐gradable  adjectives.  

� NOT  I’m  completely  hot.  � NOT  It  was  very  fantastic  

With  gradable  adjectives  

� It’s  a  bit  hot  in  here.  Shall  I  turn  the  air  conditioner  on?  � He’s  very  interested  in  documentaries.  Why  don’t  you  buy  him  a  documentary  book?  � These  problems  are  really  difficult.  I  don’t  know  any  of  the  answers.  � I’m  extremely  tired.  I’m  not  going  out  tonight.  

The  adverbs  a  bit,  very,  really,  extremely  and  quite  can  all  be  used  with  gradable  adjectives.  

With  non-­‐gradable  adjectives  

� It’s  absolutely  boiling  in  here.  Shall  I  turn  the  air  conditioner  on?  � He’s  completely  fascinated  by  history.  Why  don’t  you  buy  him  a  historical  film?  � This  problem  is  absolutely  impossible  to  solve.  � That  film  is  really  frihtening.  Don’t  go  and  see  it  on  your  own.  

The  adverbs  absolutely  and  completely  can  be  used  with  non-­‐gradable  adjectives.  

Notice  that  really  can  be  used  with  both  gradable  AND  non-­‐gradable  adjectives.  

NOTE:  There  are  other  adverbs  of  degree  that  we  haven’t  covered  in  this  section.  The  ones  included  here  are  some  of  the  most  common.  

Fill  in  with  a  correct  gradable  adjective  or  adverb:  

Very  /  really  /  completely  /  a  bit  /  absolutely  1-­‐I  speak……………………………good  English  but  My  German  is  terrible.  

2-­‐What  a/n  ……………………………..beautiful  dress!  Where  did  you  buy  it  from?

GRAMMAR  

PREPOSITIONAL  PHRASES  

At  the  minimum,  a  prepositional  phrase  will  begin  with  a  preposition  and  end  with  a  noun,  pronoun,  gerund,  or  clause,    

the  "object"  of  the  preposition.    

The  object  of  the  preposition  will  often  have  one  or  more  modifiers  to  describe  it.    

These  are  the  patterns  for  a  prepositional  phrase:  

P R E P O S İ T İ O N  +   N O U N ,   P R O N O U N ,   G E R U N D ,   O R   C L A U S E  

P R E P O S İ T İ O N  +   M O D İ F İ E R ( S )  +   N O U N ,   P R O N O U N ,   G E R U N D ,   O R   C L A U S E  

Here  are  some  examples  of  the  most  basic  prepositional  phrase:  

At  work  

Page 82: GLOBAL INSIGHT B2 MODULE 1 LIVING ABROAD 1.1 …€¦ · GLOBAL INSIGHT B2 MODULE 1 LIVING ABROAD ... relative clause) The book is ... room. Their mother got angry

At  =  preposition;  work  =  noun.  

In  time  

In  =  preposition;  time  =  noun.  

 

From  Rachel  

From  =  preposition;  Rachel  =  noun.  

With  her  

With  =  preposition;  her  =  pronoun.  

By  dancing  

By  =  preposition;  dancing  =  gerund.  

About  what  we  want  

About  =  preposition;  what  we  want  =  noun  clause.  

Most  prepositional  phrases  are  longer,  like  these:  

From  my  mother  

From  =  preposition;  my  =  modifier;  mother  =  noun.  

Under  the  huge  table  

Under  =  preposition;  the,  huge  =  modifiers;  table  =  noun.  

Understand  what  prepositional  phrases  do  in  a  sentence.  

A  prepositional  phrase  will  function  as  an  adjective  or  adverb.  As  an  adjective,  the  prepositional  phrase  will  answer  

 the  question  Which  one?  

Read  these  examples:  

The  towel  on  the  bedroom  floor  belongs  to  my  brother.  

Which  towel?  The  one  on  the  bedroom  floor!  

The  apples   in  the  fruit  bin  are  green.

The  note  from  Betty  confessed  that  she  had  eaten  the  leftover  chocolate.  

Which  note?  The  one  from  Betty!  

As  an  adverb,  a  prepositional  phrase  will  answer  questions  such  as  How?  When?  or  Where?  

Fred  is  exhausted  from  yesterday's  long  basketball  practice .  

How  did  Fred  get  exhausted?  From  yesterday's  long  basketball  practice!

We  can  report  people’s  words  by  using  direct  or  reported  speech.  Direct  speech  is  the  exact  words  someone  used.            

 e.g.  ‘I’m  tired’,  Sandra  said..  

Reported   speech   is   the   exact   meaning   of   what   someone   said,   but   not   the   exact   words.   We   do   not   use  quotation    

marks  in  reported  speech.  We  can  either  use  the  word  that  after  the  introductory  verbs  (say,  tell,  etc.)  or  we  can  omit  it.  

*   Personal   pronouns,   possessive   adjectives,   possessive   pronouns   change   according   to   the   meaning   of   the  sentence.          

 e.g.  Samantha  said  (that)  she  was  tired.  

*  We  can  report  someone’s  words  either  a  long  time  after  they  were  said  (out�of�date�reporting)  or  a  short  time  after  

 they  were  said  (up  �  to  �  date  �  reporting)  

*  When  we  quote  someone’s  actual  words,  we  can  use  reporting  verbs  such  as  say,  reply,  suggest,  etc.  

e.g.  ‘I  knew  the  answers,’  he  said.  

*  We  can  report  statements,  questions,  requests,  thoughts,  etc.  Put  these  sentences  into  indirect   :  

e.g:“It’s  very  expensive  .  Is  it  soft?”          He  said  that  it  was  very  expensive  and  asked  if  it  was  soft.
