Hi everybody! One more week gone and a brand-new one to start. As I told you by email, still no information about the end-of-year dates and procedure or Certificación. ? So very sorry!
Here is what I have planned for this week, one of the few left ones in the school years, that’s for sure. It might be the last but one if the original end-of-year dates are maintained.
It is likely that you do not have much time to study now that we are gradually being released from confinement. Don’t worry, go at your own pace. You are not meant to do it all now within this week. Choose whatever you find more interesting or appealing.
In these last few weeks I will be posting more work than usual but, this way, you will have the guidelines and resources here for when you need them or have more time for English. Okay?

- RELATIVE pronouns and RELATIVE clauses
For those of you who wish to revise relatives, I have included here these exercises that I recommended to B2.1 students last week. It combines exercises from your textbook with other resources.
– Open World. Grammar reference Unit 6, p. 217. Read the brief explanation that reminds you of the difference between a defining and a non-defining relative clause, and then watch the *Grammar on the Move video on p.87, or the other way round, as you prefer, before doing the two exercises on p.217. Note that in ex.2 n°4, the pronouns who/that can be omitted, as they are the object of the clause (this option is not in the key).
*If for any reason you cannot read the Grammar on the move QR video, you can see it through this link:http://www.cambridge.org/OW_First_Vid18
Go back to Relative clauses p.87 and do the exercises there, 1 to 5. Notice the use of whom, which you might not have come across with till now. In ex.4, sentence 5, both who and whom can be used with exactly the same meaning, being whom the most formal option. In exercise 5 you will practise some expressions with which and whom; in these phrases only whom is correct, but not who.
– Check out these links if you need to learn more about whom
