A Teaching Plan for ATTRIBUTIVE CLAUSES Ⅰ、Aims and Requirements: 1、To review the classification of sentences. 2、To let the Ss know the location、combination and the choice of relative pronouns and adverbs. To remember some typical sentences and learn by analogy. Ⅱ、Key Points： The choice of relative pronouns and relative adverbs Ⅲ、Difficult Points: The use of the relative pronoun“that” Ⅳ、Lesson Periods: Two teaching periods Ⅴ、Teaching Processes: Step1: The classification of sentences general special alternative disjunctive  declarative interrogative imperative exclamatory   use simple complex compound   Sentence   noun attributive adverbial  subject object predicative appositive   structure Step2: General idea of an attributive clause.(location, combination ,relative pronouns ,relative adverbs) (Teacher writes some sentences on the Bb and then asks the Ss to do the following: (a)Point out the attributive clauses. (b)Find out the antecedents、relative Pronouns and adverbs (c)Speak out the function of each relative pronoun or adverb playing.) 1.A dictionary is a book which gives the meaning of words. (subject) 2.The letter which I received yesterday was from a friend of mine. (object) 3.The girl whose mother is a teacher studies very hard. (attribute) 4.I began my city life in 1970 when I came to Beijing. (adverbial) (Teacher later makes a conclusion: In the attributive clause, a relative pronoun plays the function of subject、object and attribute, while a relative adverb plays that of adverbial.) Step3: Choice of relative pronoun and relative adverb. (1)When the antecedent plays the function of subject or object in the attributive clause: subject who, that person object whom, who, that(can be omitted) antecedent subject which, that thing object which, that (can be omitted) (2) When the antecedent plays the function of object of preposition the attributive clause: person preposition + whom antecedent thing preposition + which (3) When the antecedent plays the function of attribute in the attributive clause: person whose antecedent thing whose (4) when the antecedent plays the function of adverbial in the attributive clause: time when antecedent reason why place where manner how (5) The use of the relative pronoun “that” After a superlative. After no, every, some, any (including their compounds). After an ordinal numeral. After only, very, all, little. After two or more antecedents denoting both persons and thing. When the interrogative pronoun is the same as the relative pronoun. Step 4:Difference between an attributive clause and an appositive clause. She always asks herself the question what is to be done next. (“question” plays no function in the clause.) I can not find out the key to the question which was asked by my teacher. (“question” plays the function of subject in the clause.) Step5: Difference between restrictive and non- restrictive attributive clause. There is no reason why I should not accept the favor. (to restrict “reason”, if it is left out ,the sentence does not make complete sense.) This letter is from my elder sister, who now works in Shanghai. (has no restrictive force, it merely gives some additional information about “sister”.) Step6: Consolidation.
