Period 7 Grammar and usage (2)

Learning aims

1. To learn how to use relative adverbs in attributive clauses.

2. To have more practice on the usage of attributive clauses

☆合作探究 Relative adverbs: when, where and why

▲Please read the instructions on page 30 to see in what condition when, where or why is used to introduce an attributive clause.

　He will always remember the days he spent in China.

2. where 在定语从句中作地点状语，先行词往往是表示 的名词，相当于"介词 + which"。若定语从句缺主语或宾语，用 或 引导定语从句。

　　（where引导的定语从句也可以修饰case, condition, situation, instance等先行词。）

　The city gives Eric a deep impression in China is Shanghai.

3. We use the relative adverb why to begin attributive clauses after reason. 如果关系代词指代先行词reason在从句中作主语、宾语、表语等时，则用 或 。

　The reason he gave us is good enough.

Notes: In more formal English, when, where and why can be replaced by a preposition + which.

The study is the place where/ I often have talks with my father.
