1)  Explain cleary about active and passive sentences!
Give example (5 active sentences and 5 passive sentences)!

Active Sentences
In active sentences, the thing doing the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing receiving the action is the object. Most sentences are active.

[Thing doing action] + [verb] + [thing receiving action]


Examples:


Passive Sentences

In passive sentences, the thing receiving the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing doing the action is optionally included near the end of the sentence. You can use the passive form if you think that the thing receiving the action is more important or should be emphasized. You can also use the passive form if you do not know who is doing the action or if you do not want to mention who is doing the action.

[Thing receiving action] + [be] + [past participle of verb] + [by] + [thing doing action]


Examples:

2)  What is relative clauses? Find the passage contain relative clauses and determine their relative pronouns?
Relactive Pronouns
Relative pronouns introduce relative clauses. The most common relative pronouns are who, whom, whose, which, that. The relative pronoun we use depends on what we are referring to and the type of relative clause.

Examples:
  • Do you know the girl who started in grade 7 last week?
  • Can I have the pencil that I gave you this morning?
  • A notebook is a computer which can be carried around.
  • I won't eat in a restaurant whose cooks smoke.
  • I want to live in a place where there is lots to do.
  • Yesterday was a day when everything went wrong!

{  There is a relative pronoun whom, which can be used as the object of the relative clause. For example: My science teacher is a person whom I like very much. To many people the word whom now sounds old-fashioned, and it is rarely used in spoken English.


Relative pronouns are associated as follows with their preceding noun:
Preceding noun
Relative pronoun
Examples
A person
who(m)/that, whose
- Do you know the girl who ..
- He was a man that ..
- An orphan is a child whose  parents ..

A thing
which/that, whose
- Do you have a computer which
- The oak a tree that
- This is a book whose author


Note 1      : The relative pronoun whose is used in place of the possessive pronoun. It must be
             followed by a noun. Example: There's a boy in grade 8 whose father is a professional
             tennis player. (There's a boy in grade 8. His father is a professional tennis player.)
Note 2      : The relative pronouns where and when are used with place and time nouns. Examples:
            FIS is a school where children from more than 50 countries are educated. 2001 was the
            year when terrorists attacked the Twin Towers in New York.
Some relative clauses are not used to define or identify the preceding noun but to give extra information about it. Here are some examples:
  • My ESL teacher, who came to Germany in 1986, likes to ride his mountain bike.
  • The heavy rain, which was unusual for the time of year, destroyed most of the plants in my garden.
  • Einstein, who was born in Germany, is famous for his theory of relativity.
  • The boy, whose parents both work as teachers at the school, started a fire in the classroom.
  • My mother's company, which makes mobile phones, is moving soon from Frankfurt to London.
  • In the summer I'm going to visit Italy, where my brother lives.

  • My mother's company, which makes mobile phones, is moving soon from Frankfurt to London.
  • In the summer I'm going to visit Italy, where my brother lives.
Note 1: Relative clauses which give extra information, as in the example sentences above, must be separated off by commas.
Note 2: The relative pronoun that cannot be used to introduce an extra-information (non-defining) clause about a person. Wrong: Neil Armstrong, that was born in 1930, was the first man to stand on the moon. Correct: Neil Armstrong, who was born in 1930, was the first man to stand on the moon.


3)  Find the theory of conditional sentences! How many types are there? Make example of each type (5 for each type)

Conditional sentences
Conditional tenses are used to speculate about what could happen, what might have happened, and what we wish would happen. In English, most sentences using the conditional contain the word if. Many conditional forms in English are used in sentences that include verbs in one of the past tenses. This usage is referred to as “the unreal past" because we use a past tense but we are not actually referring to something that happened in the past. There are five main ways of constructing conditional sentences in English. In all cases, these sentences are made up of an if clause and a main clause. In many negative conditional sentences, there is an equivalent sentence construction using "unless" instead of "if".

Conditional sentence type
Usage
If clause verb tense
Main clause verb tense
Zero
General truths
Simple present
Simple present
Type 1
A possible condition and its probable result
Simple present
Simple future
Type 2
A hypothetical condition and its probable result
Simple past
Present conditional or Present continuous conditional
Type 3
An unreal past condition and its probable result in the past
Past perfect
Perfect conditional
Mixed type
An unreal past condition and its probable result in the present
Past perfect
Present conditional

 

The zero conditional

The zero conditional is used for when the time being referred to is now or always and the situation is real and possible. The zero conditional is often used to refer to general truths. The tense in both parts of the sentence is the simple present. In zero conditional sentences, the word "if" can usually be replaced by the word "when" without changing the meaning.

If+Simple Present Tense


Example :
·         If it rains the grass gets wet
·         If you run, you sweat

Type 1 conditional

          The type 1 conditional is used to refer to the present or future where the situation is real. The type 1 conditional refers to a possible condition and its probable result. In these sentences the if clause is in the simple present, and the main clause is in the simple future.

If+Simple Future Tense


Example:
·         If you don’t hurry, you’ll miss the train.
·         If it rains today, you’ll get wet



 

Type 2 conditional

          The type 2 conditional is used to refer to a time that is now or any time, and a situation that is unreal. These sentences are not based on fact. The type 2 conditional is used to refer to a hypothetical condition and its probable result. In type 2 conditional sentences, the if clause uses the simple past, and the main clause uses the present conditional.

If+Simple Past Tense

Example:
·         If you went to bed earlier, you would not be so tired.
·         If it rained, you would get wet.

Type 3 conditional

          The type 3 conditional is used to refer to a time that is in the past, and a situation that is contrary to reality. The facts they are based on are the opposite of what is expressed. The type 3 conditional is used to refer to an unreal past condition and its probable past result. In type 3 conditional sentences, the if clause uses the past perfect, and the main clause uses the perfect conditional.

If+Past Perfect Tense

Example:
·         If you had studied harder, you would’ve passed the exam
·         If it had rained, you would’ve gotten wet

Mixed type conditional

The mixed type conditional is used to refer to a time that is in the past, and a situation that is ongoing into the present. The facts they are based on are the opposite of what is expressed. The mixed type conditional is used to refer to an unreal past condition and its probable result in the present. In mixed type conditional sentences, the if clause uses the past perfect, and the main clause uses the present conditional.

If+Past Perfect or Simple Past Tense
Example:
·         If we had looked at the map, we wouldn’t be lost
·         If I had worked harder at school, i would have a better job now.
