3)Relative Clauses

Relative clauses are one of the most useful structures in a composition. The importance appears in the need for proper usage. Let’s see.

“I am the man who walks alone walking the dark road.”

“She was the girl who taught me how to love anyone.”

“This is the computer in which I developed my first program. You can’t even access the internet with it.”

• that: It is like a combination with “who” and “which”. You can use it both with people and animals, objects and ideas.

“This is the game that I forgot the eat my meal while I was playing it.”

• where: This word describes the place.

“This is the place where you kneel for a thing.”

 

What are the main parts of good composition?

Like all the things in the world, there are several tricks to write a great composition. We will be learning them. But first, we should know what the composition is. The composition is the type of essay based on the main principle of the law. “The procedure is a pride to the merits”. Let’s clarify it, in a composition, the expression is more important than the thing you have expressed. Which parts are essential to forming a great composition?

1)The introduction paragraph:

You should be able to form a great introduction paragraph to explain your point. This paragraph should be short and brief.

2)The progression paragraph:

This is the paragraph where you will be able to explain your point. Try to use good analogies. Analogies make your abstract expressions more tangible. English teachers’ true focus on a high school student is to improve its ability to make analogies and comparisons. The term “cause and effect” is your key. The main goal of the progression paragraph is to achieve a logical correlation bridge to your point in the introduction paragraph.

3)The summary paragraph:

The summary paragraph aims to summarize your composition. You should be mentioning the analogies and comparisons you made. There should be an output of your progression paragraph and your introductive paragraph. In other words, you should be presenting a summary of your process. Logical clarity should be your key here. Remember, not all the correlation makes causality. Logic should be the pioneer of your compositions.

Why should high school students write compositions?

The literal expression is one of the most crucial skills a person can have. Both for academic and business life, the existence of that skill will be making people’s life a better place. Language is the greatest tool that humankind can have. All the knowledge, feelings, thoughts are transferred by it. At the end of the day, people with bright literal expression skills rule the world. It is a great management skill, by the way. So, high school students should be writing compositions.
