LISTENING AND READING PRACTICE
Hello again. 🙂
This time I am sending you a link of the film you need to watch and to answer the questions in your notebook. All of the questions /answers should be sent into our group for English.
The film is one of the most popular films ever, and I hope you will enjoy watching it.
P.S. It is an old one, so be patient.
These are the questions:
- When the film begins, what is the mood?
- How is this achieved?
- How is Paris constructed?
- Which words would you use to describe Laszlo?
- What would you have done in that position if you were Rick or Ilsa?
- Does Renault’s character help you to understand the complexities of relationships between the various power bases during the Second World War?
- On what date does Major Strasser arrive in Casablanca?
- What did Rick have that everybody wanted?
- How old is Rick Blaine?
- What type of street performer is featured in an opening city scene?
When you finish watching the film and answering the questions, open the book on page 85 and complete the sentences in ex.6b. Send the answers into the group, of course . 
Thank you and take care.

Non-defining relative clauses
We use non-defining relative clauses to give extra information about the person or thing. It is not necessary information. We don’t need it to understand who or what is being referred to.
We always use a relative pronoun (who, which, whose or whom) to introduce a non-defining relative clause (In the examples, the relative clause is in bold, and the person or thing being referred to is underlined.)
Clare, who I work with, is doing the London marathon this year.
Not: Clare, I work with, is doing the London marathon this year.
Doctors use the testing kit for regular screening for lung and stomach cancers, which account for 70% of cancers treated in the western world.
Alice, who has worked in Brussels and London ever since leaving Edinburgh, will be starting a teaching course in the autumn.
Warning:
We don’t use that to introduce a non-defining relative clause:
Allen, who scored three goals in the first game, was the only player to perform well.
Not: Allen, that scored three goals in the first game, was the only player to perform well.
Defining or non-defining relative clauses?
Sometimes defining and non-defining relative clauses can look very similar but have different meanings.
Compare
| non-defining | defining |
| His brother, who works at the supermarket, is a friend of mine. He has only one brother, and that brother works at the supermarket. | His brother who works at the supermarket is a friend of mine. He has more than one brother. The one I’m talking about works at the supermarket. |
| It’s hoped that we will raise £10,000 for local charities, which help the homeless. The money is intended for local charities. All these local charities help the homeless. | It’s hoped that we will raise £10,000 for local charities which help the homeless. The money is intended for local charities. Some of these local charities help the homeless. There are other local charities as well as these. |
Warning:
The information in a defining relative clause is essential, so we can’t leave out the relative clause. The information in a non-defining relative clause is extra information which isn’t essential, so we can leave out the relative clause.
For your homework open your books on the page 97 and finish exercises 2a, 2b and 2c.
