  5. II./Grammar and vocabulary: A. Non-defining and defining relative clauses 1. Relative clauses : (Mệnh đề quan hệ) * Remember: _ Mệnh đề quan hệ là mệnh đề được dùng để bổ nghĩa cho danh từ đứng trước nó. _ Mệnh đề quan hệ phải đứng ngay sau danh từ mà nó bổ nghĩa. _ Trong mệnh đề thường có thể sử dụng những trạng töø quan hệ: when, where, why, what. _ Mệnh đề quan hệ được nối với mệnh đề chính bằng các đại từ quan hệ: who, whom, which, whose, that… Ex: 1. This is my country where I was born. 2. The boy who sits near me is very friendly.

  6. WHO:duøng thay theá cho danh töø chæ ngöôøi;coù theå laøm chuû töø hoaëc tuùc töø. a.This is the man who saved my life (who=subject) b.This is the man who\whom I was telling you about (who\whom=object) WHICH:duøng thay theá danh töø chæ vaät;coù theå laøm chuû töø hoaëc tuùc töø. a.He took me to a restaurant which had very good service (which=subject) b.He took me to the restaurant which we’d read about in the paper. (which=object)

  7. THAT:coù theå duøng ôû caùc vò trí cuûa WHO hoacë WHICH nhö trong caùc caâu treân. a.This is the man that\who taught me how to play the guitar. b.He took me to the school that\which was built his grandfather.

  8. WHOSE: laø ñaïi töø quan heä sôû höõu thay theá cho danh töø chæ ngöôøi hoaëc vaät,loaøi vaät • (vôùi yù nghóa nhö”his,her,their”….). • This is the man whose daughter teaches at our school • (This is the man. His daughter teaches at our school) • The man whose car was stolen is now reporting to the police. • (The man is now reporting to the police. His car was stolen.)

  9. ZERO relative: khi who hoaë which duøng ôû vò trí tuùc töø(object) chuùng ta coù theå löôïc boû. a.Do you remember the name of the man who\whom we met on the train? OR: Do you remember the name of the man we met on the train? (zero relative) b. The movie which we watched on TV last night was really moving OR: The movie we watched on TV last night was really moving (Zero relative)

  10. WHERE & WHEN : chúng ta có thể dùng WHERE và WHEN như các đại từ quan hệ (Relative pronouns). WHERE dùng sau từ chỉ nơi chốn; WHEN dùng sau từ chỉ thời gian. a). The factory is going to close down. My brother works there. The factory where my brother works is going to close down. b). We’re returning to the town. We spent a few holidays in that town. We’re returning to the town where we spent a few holidays.

  11. c). Do you remember the time? The accident happened at that time. Do you remember the time when the accident happened? d). I went on a trip last summer. I met my boyfriend at that time. I went on a trip last summer whenI met my boyfriend.

  12. WHY : sau từ “ reason” chúng ta thường dùng WHY ( cũng có thể dùng THAT để nối thành mệnh đề quan hệ ( Relative claues) : a). She left without saying anything. I don’t know the reason. I don’t know the reason why she left without saying anything. b). They were late. Did they tell you the reason? Did they tell you the reason why they were late ?

  13. a. Defining relative clauses: (Mệnh đề quan hệ xác định) * Định nghĩa: Mệnh đề quan hệ được gọi là xác định khi nó cần thiết cho ý nghĩa của câu. Bỏ nó đi câu sẽ không đầy đủ ý nghĩa. (Mô tả những danh từ đứng trước nó để phân biệt với các danh từ khác cùng loại, làm rõ danh từ). Ex: 1. The woman who lives next door is a doctor. 2. The hotel where we stayed was very clean.

  14. b. Non-defining relative clauses: (Mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định) * Định nghĩa: Mệnh đề quan hệ được gọi là không xác định khi nó không cần thiết cho ý nghĩa của câu, bỏ nó đi mệnh đề chính vẫn đảm bảo đầy đủ ý nghĩa. * Đặc điểm: Mệnh đề quan hệ được gọi là không xác định khi trước nó là 1 danh từ riêng, hoặc trước danh từ đó có các tính từ sở hữu (my, his, her, your, our, their,…) hay đại từ chỉ định (this , that, these, those…) Ex: 1. The Thames, which flows through London, is a beautiful river. 2. His daughter, who sat next to me, sang well.

  15. * Note: • _ Giữa mệnh đề chính và mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định có dấu phẩy ngăn cách. • _ Không được lược bỏ đại từ quan hệ trong mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định. • which: có thể thay thế cho 1 mệnh đề • Ex: Marry passed her driving test, which surprised everybody.

  16. c. Relative pronouns with prepositions: (giới từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ) _Giới từ thường đứng trước whom (cho người) và which (cho vật). Ex: to whom/with whom/for which/to which/all of/ most of/ ….. + whom/which. Mr.Smith, to whom I spoke on the phone last night, is very interested in soccer.

  17. B. Connecting contrasting ideas: Although _ Chúng ta dùng các liên từ trong mệnh đề chỉ sự nhượng bộ khi chúng ta muốn nói rằng có sự tương phản xảy ra trong mệnh đề chính và mệnh đề chỉ sự nhượng bộ. _ Cấu trúc: Cấu trúc trên cũng áp dụng đối với các liên từ khác trong mệnh đề nhượng bộ, như: though, even though.

  18. * Note: Nếu các liên từ although, though, even though được đặt ở đầu câu thì mệnh đề chỉ sự nhượng bộ phải được đặt ngăn cách với mệnh đề chính bằng 1 dấu phẩy. Khi chúng được đặt giữa câu thì giữa 2 mệnh đề không cần dấu phẩy ngăn cách. Ex: 1. Although the home team lost, they played very well. 2. Even though it was raining, I still went to school on time. 3. He still goes to school although he isn’t fine.

  19. Note: Khi dùng though, although, even though, ta không dùng but và ngược lại • Ex: 1. Although she isn’t brilliant, she studies quite well. • 2. She isn’t brilliant but she studies quite well. • Although + clause (S+V) • In spite of + N / Noun phrase / V-ing
