Defining clauses & non – defining clauses

Defining relative clauses:


The relative clause can come after the subject or the object of the sentence. We can't drop
the relative pronoun.

 I'm looking for a secretary who / that can use a computer well.
 I sent a letter which / that arrived three weeks later.

Non-defining relative clauses:


We don't use 'that' in non-defining relative clauses, so we need to use 'which' if the
pronoun refers to a thing, and 'who' if it refers to a person. We can't drop the relative
pronoun in this kind of clause, even if the relative pronoun is the subject of the clause.

 My boss, who is very nice, lives in Manchester.


 My bicycle, which I've had for more than ten years, is falling apart.
 Yesterday I called our friend Julie, who lives in New York.

1 – Pros and cons of being a doctor

13
Being a doctor is with no doubt, a very invaluable job. It's a great gob with many
advantages and disadvantages.
Working as a doctor has many advantages. Firstly, the doctors do a very precious and holly
job because they help ill people and look after them. They help them to overcome their pain and be healthy.
Secondly, they are very hard working people and their work lasts for long hours. Moreover, they are very up
to date people who are always dealing with the latest discoveries in the medicine field.
On the other hand, Doctors have no time for personal life. They always work for long hours
which prohibit them from having the family joy which each body have. Also it is a very tiring and demanding
job. The doctor must be a very careful person because he deals with people lives.
All in all, I want to be a doctor one day because I think that it is a very promising job and I like to
help people in need.

2 – Pros and cons of being a flight attendant

Some people see it is an ordinary job while others think it is an exciting and
interesting career. Whatever your views, there is no doubt that working as a flight attendant is
a demanding job wit many advantages and disadvantages.
As for the advantages, to begin with; it is a very exciting job because flight
attendants are able to travel to lots of places. In addition, it is an interesting job because flight
attendants meet lots of people from different countries everyday.
However, there are number of disadvantages of being a flight attendant. Firstly,
it is a stressful job because they have lots of responsibilities. Furthermore, it is a tiring job
because they often have to work long hours.
To conclude, I believe that, although being a flight attendant at times, it is
worth it.

Writing
How to write a story
When we write a story, we divide our story into:
First paragraph: we write when, where the event happened, who the people in the story
were, what the weather was like and what happened first.
20
Main body: we describe the events.
Last paragraph: we write what happened in the end and how people feel.
We always write the story in the past simple.
Don’t forget to use adjectives and linking words

Example:

A story about an adventure you had.

Last month I had a horrible adventure which I will never forget. It was late at night
when I was sitting by the window listening to music. Everybody was sleeping and the street
was very quiet. Suddenly I saw three men who covered their faces. They stopped next to
the jeweller's opposite my house. They tried to break into the jeweller's but I screamed.
They were shocked and they tried to run away, the neighbours were able to catch them but
one of them ran away. Two days later, I was walking in the street when a man on a
motorbike drove very near to me. He tried to stab me with a knife but I swerved quickly.
For my luck, a car which was coming quickly hit him and he fell to the ground. When the
police caught him, he confessed that he was the third burglar who tried to break into the
jeweller's and he wanted to revenge. He was put in prison. I was frightened for many days
but I'm quite well now. I thank Allah that He saved me.
