Part1. The analysis of the teaching material:

In the passage The Three Gorges Dam, the writer use the infinitives to express his ideas, so I think this module aims to help the students grasp how to use non-defining attributive clauses. As we know, non-defining attributive clause is one of the most important grammars, and it is also one of the most difficult grammars. To help the students grasp this grammar, I should make the students interested in the class first.

Part2. Analysis of the students:

The students have learnt defining attributive clauses in module 5 on page 47, and they often meet attributive clauses in reading materials, so the grammar is not strange to them.

Most of our students lack confidence and are shy to express their ideas in English, so some interesting and easy work to try to involve all the students to take part in the class activities are necessary.

Step2 Non-defining attributive clauses 20’

1.Encourage the students to sum up the differences between non-defining attributive

clauses and defining attributive clauses by themselves

In a defining attributive clause

(1) The information given is essential to understand the sentence, and make it clear

which person or thing you are talking about in a sentence.

(2) You don’t need a comma

In a non-defining attributive clauses

(1) The information is not essential to understand the sentence, but it provides additional

information.

(2) Punctuation is important, common are used to separate the clause from the rest of the

sentence.

(3) ‘That’ canno t be used in a non-defining attributive clause.

2. The definition of non-defining attributive clause.

When a attributive clause merely describes an object without having the function of defining or identifying to which object the speaker or writer is referring, the clause must be placed between commas. Such a clause can be called a non-defining or non-limiting relative clause, i.e., a non-defining relative clause gives extra information about a noun or noun phrase and has commas at both ends.

(Purpose: this part is designed to make the students understand the definition of non-defining attributive clauses and the difference between non-defining attributive clauses
