  1. Class 1 Lesson A and B Unit 7: Relationships

  2. Circle of friends 2. My most exciting friend… 1. My ___ buddy… 3. My school friend… 5. My new friend… 4. My friend from work/ church/ volunteering…

  3. Grammar Point: Relative clauses • identifies or gives information about a noun (He’s the guy who got me started running.) • defining (restrictive) – identifies which person/thing is being talked about (*much more common) • Ben is the person that sits across from me at work. • non-defining (non-restrictive) – gives extra info about the person/thing being talked about • Ben, who sits across from me at work, used to have his own company.

  4. Grammar Point: Relative Clauses relative pronoun • relative clauses can modify/describe nouns which are subjects or objects • Subject Relative Clauses Nina is a woman. She sits across from me. Nina is a woman who / that sits across from me. Nina had a company. It planned weddings. Nina had a company which / that planned weddings.

  5. Grammar Point: Relative Clauses Subject Relative Clauses the relative pronoun is the subject of the verb in the clause clause = a collection of words that has a subject that is actively doing a verb

  6. Grammar Point: Relative Clauses 2. Object Relative Clauses • the relative pronoun is the object of the verb in the clause Charlie is someone (that) I can trust. What does that refer back to? What is the subject of the relative clause? What is the verb in the relative clause? What is the object of the relative clause? Jen talks about the things (that) she’s doing.

  7. Grammar Point: Relative Clauses in object relative clauses you don’t need to say the relative pronoun especially in conversation Relative Pronouns:

  8. Find the relative clauses P66 underline the relative clauses write S for subject relative clause or O for object relative clause

  9. Circle of friends Write a sentence describing each of your friends using a relative clause. Introduce your circle of friends to your partner.

  10. Class 2 Lesson C and D Unit 7:Relationships

  11. Vocabulary

  12. Grammar Point: Phrasal verbs • phrasal verbs can be separable or inseparable • these are inseparable – the verb and particle stay together [verb + particle] • She went away to college. O • She went to college away. X • these are intransitive [=they don’t take an object] • Anna went away. • She flew back. • Things didn’t work out.

  13. Speaking Naturally • phrasal verb = verb + particle • usually grammatical words are not stressed • BUT the particle in a phrasal verb is strongly stressed • grew up • go out • went away • flew back

  14. Annoying neighbors • What are some things your neighbors do that annoy you? • play the piano late at night • let their children run around

  15. Conversation Strategy: Softening comments • in conversation, people soften their comments (especially when talking about other people) to avoid sounding too direct or rude * top 100 words/expressions in English conversation ** top 150 *** top 200 **** top 500

  16. Strategy Plus: though • though often used to give a contrasting idea (used like but or however and usually at the end of the sentence) • can be used by the same speaker to contrast ideas A: She’s a nice person. She can be a bit weird, though. [=She’s a nice person, but she can be a bit weird.] • can be used by another speaker to disagree in a “soft”, polite way A: She’s a nice person. B: Yeah. She can be a bit weird, though. [=I agree, but she can be a little weird.]
