12、. Explaining and sharingWork in groups of four. Tell your group mates:883A. What do you know about the substance of “amber”?B. What do you know about the cultural relics “the Amber Room”? Keys for reference:I am from group 2. From the knowledge we got from biology and chemistry, we know “amber” is a
13、 semi-precious stone used in jewelry and art world. Amber is really the fossil form of resin from trees. It has got its shape after a process that has taken millions of years to complete. Trees in very ancient forests produced this resin, which slowly dropped from trees and was buried. Trees use res
14、in to protect themselves from disease and harm caused by insects and fungi. I am from group 6. From the information of history legends and news reports, we know the Amber Room is a room built by lots of ambers. It was a gift given to Peter the Great, the King of Russia, by the King of Prussia, Frede
15、rick William I. It was given the name because almost thousand tons of natural ambers were used to make it. But during the second world war in 1941, the Nazi German army secretly stole the Amber Room and sent boxes of the Amber Room on a train to a German city. After that, what really happened to the
16、 Amber Room remains a mystery.III. Reading1. Reading aloud to the recordingNow please listen and read aloud to the recording of the text IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM.

28、r Room? What is it?B. Do you think if it is worthwhile to reproduce the Amber Room? Why?Keys for reference: A. I have no idea about the fate of the Amber Room. Because anything can happen to it.

32、eful words and expressionsTo discover some useful structuresProcedures:I. Warming up Warming up by discovering useful words and expressions Please turn to page 3. Do exercises 1, 2, 3 and 4 first. Please check your answers against your classmates.Warming up by explaining Now, class, since youve read
33、 the passage, could you explain to me how to use the phrase “belong to”? The word “to” here is a preposition, indicating the possession, and is always followed by nouns or pronoun. Look at Ex 3. The preposition “at” indicates a state, condition or continuous activity. So we can replace them or expre
34、ss them by using a present-continuous tense.II. Learning about Attributive Clause1. What is an adjective Clause?An adjective clause is a dependent clause which takes the place of an adjective in another clause or phrase. Like an adjective, an adjective clause modifies a noun or pronoun, answering qu
35、estions like “which?” or “what kind of?” Consider the following examples:Adjective the red coat Adjective clause the coat which I bought yesterday 887Like the word “red” in the first example, the dependent clause “which I bought yesterday” in the second example modifies the noun “coat.” Note that an
36、 adjective clause usually comes after what it modifies, while an adjective usually comes before.In formal writing, an adjective clause begins with the relative pronouns “who(m),” “that,” or “which.” In informal writing or speech, you may leave out the relative pronoun when it is not the subject of t
37、he adjective clause, but you should usually include the relative pronoun in formal, academic writing:informal The books people read were mainly religious. formal The books that people read were mainly religious. informal Some firefighters never meet the people they save. formal Some firefighters nev
38、er meet the people whom they save. Here are some more examples of adjective clauses:the meat which they ate was tainted This clause modifies the noun “meat” and answers the question “which meat?”.Theyre talking about the movie which made him cry This clause modifies the noun “movie” and answers the
39、question “which movie?”.They are searching for the student who borrowed the book The clause modifies the pronoun “student” and answers the question “which student?”.Did I tell you about the author whom I met? The clause modifies the noun “author” and answers the question “which author?”.2. Restricti
40、ve & non restrictive clauses Do the following pairs of sentences mean the same thing?1a My uncle, who lives in London, is very rich.2b My uncle who lives in London is very rich.2a The policies, which were unpopular, were rejected by the voters.2b The policies which were unpopular were rejected by th
41、e voters.3a My niece, whose husband is out of work, will inherit the house, which I have always treasured.8883b My niece whose husband is out of work will inherit the house which I have always treasured.The first sentence in each pair has a non-restrictive clause within two commas, and the second ha
42、s a restrictive clause. A non-restrictive clause simply adds more information into the sentence and does not affect the meaning of the main clause: it is therefore bracketed off with commas (1a = an uncle who happens to live in London). Conversely, a restrictive clause defines its referent in the ma
43、in clause more specifically and contributes significantly to the meaning of the sentence. Thus it is that particular uncle who lives in London who is referred to (1b). In 2a, all policies were unpopular and all were rejected, whereas in 2b only the policies that were unpopular were rejected. Note th
44、at in restrictive clauses the non-human relative pronoun is either that or which, whereas for human referents the relative pronoun can be either who/m or that (the man that/whom I will marry .).3. A test on FORMAL ADJECTIVE CLAUSESDirections: Combine the sentences. Use formal written English.Use (b)
