GRAMMAR REVIEW: Topic: Sentence Patterns Compound-complex (5-6 minutes) ( 文章パターン複合.) A compound-complex sentence is comprised of at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses. To better understand, let us review dependent and independent clauses: ( 複合文は 2 つ以上の主節と一つもしくはそれ以上の従属節から成りますよく理解するために主節従属節を復習しましょう ) A dependent clause cannot act as a complete sentence because it needs to be subordinated to an independent clause to complete its meaning. It is introduced by a subordinating conjunction, such as when, because, if, whoever, etc. 従属節はその意味合いを完成させるために主節に付随する必要があるのでそれだけでは完成した一つの文章としては成り立ちません when, because, if, whoever のような従属する接続詞によって導入されるのです Example: When the tourist takes photos An independent clause makes a statement or asks a question that acts as a complete sentence. 主節は完全な文章として機能する叙述や質問を作ります Example: The tourist takes photos. 3

4 Remember: Because compound-complex sentences are normally longer than other sentences, it is very important to punctuate them correctly. ( 注意 : 複合文は通常他の文章よりも長いので正しく句読点をつけることがとても重要です ) Examples: Though Glen lives in Japan at the moment, he plans to move to another country someday; however, his wife disapproves of it. ( グレンは今のところ日本に住んでいるがいつか違う国に移る予定であるしかし彼の妻は同意していない ) After Jane went to Africa last year, she found the country beautiful, so she finally moved there this year. ( 昨年ジェーンはアフリカに行ってその国を気に入り今年ついに移り住んだ ) Comprehension Check: Using a compound-complex sentence, relate instances when you might want to immigrate to another country. Exercise 1: Incomplete Sentences (5-6 minutes) Choose the word or phrase that would best complete the following sentences. 1. of the poor economy, many medical practitioners move to different countries and most of them stay there for good. a. But b. Since c. Because d. However 2. Even though she prefers to eat with spoon and fork, she chooses to use chopsticks in Japanese restaurants;, they aren't easy to use. a. whenever b. however c. whatever d. wherever 4

5 3. If my family moves to London for good, I ll be able to travel to Europe, it will cost me a lot to do so. a. so b. since c. but d. for 4.
