Psychologists and doctors have begun to study the problem of stress more closely. Three

Specialists have discovered that the most stressful professions are those that involve
danger and extreme pressure. Also the ones that carry a lot of responsability.
The signs of stress range from nervousness, anger, and frequent illness to forgetfulness.
Some warning signs of stress are intestinal distress, frequent illness, persistent
fatigue, nail biting, hunger of sweets and lack of concentration.
The best way to deal with stress is through relaxation but sometimes the only answer is

A. Do you and your brother have the same personality? Read the following text about birth order.
Patrick and Dave are pretty similar. Patrick is a
perfectionist. So is Dave. Dave was an excellent
president of his high school class. So was Patrick.
Dave has been leader in most of his enterprises. So
has Patrick. Patrick always tries to obey rules. Dave
does, too. Dave has never liked 'liberal ideas'.
Neither has Patrick.
Patrick
Did you think they are twins? No, my friends. They
are both firstborns. Patrick and Dave are examples
Dave
of what researchers are calling the birth-order
theory. According to this theory, firstborns are usually self-confident, conscientious, assertive and
conservative. On the other hand, lastborns are usually more sociable, more open-minded and more
agreeable. In other words, firstborns would be powerful politic figures and lastborns would be
revolutionary leaders. However, not all is true because there were historical firstborns who became
revolutionaries, as well laterborns who became conservatives.
Do you agree with this theory? Which one are you?

Cold comfort
LESSON

BEFORE
YOU STA RT
Are you the kind of person that likes staying in unusual places? If the answer is “yes”, try the
World's Coldest Hotel in Jukkasjärvi in the north of Sweden. But go in winter or all you will find is
a pool of water, because the hotel melts every spring!
Nils Yngue Bergqvist runs the Artic Hall Hotel. He is also the man whose idea was. He built his
first igloo for an art exhibition in 1991 and designed the present hotel. The whole building and
everything in it is made of snow, except for the wooden front door. There's a theater that Nils
uses for shows, a jazz club, a radio station and a large ice bar. The rooms have no doors, there's
no furniture, no heating and everyone sleeps on ice beds. If you want to stay in one of the ten
ice rooms, it will cost you about $ 50 a night. You won't be very comfortable, but you will receive
a survival certificate from the manager!
When the winter is over, Nils organizes an annual contest to predict the day that the igloo will
fall. The person that guessed the day correctly last year received a large painting from the Artic
Hall exhibition.
Nil's ice hotels are becoming world-famous and he loves his work. He's already excited about his
next project , an ice hotel that will have more complicated architectural characteristics and, he
says, will be bigger and better.
A.
A.Think about these questions and discuss with other classmates orally.
1. Why is the hotel called the Artic Hall Hotel?
2. Describe a typical room and an Art Hall Hotel room.
3. How can Nils Bergqvist describe his occupation?

Defining relative clauses
Relative clauses
What is a relative clause?
We can use relative clauses to join two English sentences, or to give more information about
something.
- I bought a new car. It is very fast.
- I bought a new car that is very fast.
A defining relative clause tells which noun we are talking about:
I like the woman who lives next door.
- She lives in New York. She likes living in New York.
- She lives in New York, which she likes.
(If I don’t say ‘who lives next door’, then we don’t know which woman I mean)
More examples :
The people who live on the island are very friendly.
The man who phoned is my brother.
The camera which costs £100 is over there.
The house which belongs to Julie is in London.
He is also the man whose idea was.
There's a theater that Nils uses for shows...
The person that guessed the day correctly last year...
... an ice hotel that will have more complicated architectural characteristics.
Rule:
· We use ____________ to give extra information about people and things.
· We use ____________ to give extra information about possession.
He is the man. This was sih idea. He is the man esohw
idea it was.

Non-defining
relative clauses
Non-defining relative clauses:
A non-defining relative clause gives us extra information about something.
We don’t need this information to understand the sentence.
• I live in London, which has some fantastic parks.
(Everybody knows where London is, ‘which has some fantastic parks’ is extra information)
We don’t use ‘that’ in non-defining relative clauses, so we need to use ‘which’ if the pronoun
refers to a thing, and ‘who’ if it refers to a person. We can’t drop the relative pronoun in this kind
of clause, even if the relative pronoun is the subject of the clause.
Some examples:
• My boss, who is very nice, lives in Manchester.
• My sister, who I live with, knows a lot about cars.
• My bicycle, which I've had for more than ten years, is falling apart.
• My mother's house, which I grew up in, is very small.
• Yesterday I called our friend Julie, who lives in New York.
• The photographer called to the Queen, who looked annoyed.
• Last week I bought a new computer, which I don't like now.
• I really love the new Chinese restaurant, which we went to last night.

to write a description. Use the non-defining relative
clause structure.
Utensil : a bottle opener, wooden spoon.
Machine: coffee machine, answering machine.
Tool : hammer, handsaw.

LESSON

Subject relative pronouns
Relative pronouns are the subject of the clause. For non-defining clauses we use who
for people and which for things.
e.g. Maritere, who invited me to the party, called me yesterday.
New York, which is my favorite state, has lots of buildings.
Relative pronouns have the same form for singular or plural nouns, for masculine or
feminine nouns.
e.g. Benito, who lives next door, is my friend.
Alice and Benito, who live in the same house, go to my school.
Read these conversations between friends. Then use the information to write a
summary. Use relative pronouns.
1 A: This newspaper is really interesting.
B: Really?
C: It has many different sections.
Summary: ___________________________________________
2 A: My friend bikes to school.
B: Well, it's very far.
A: Yeah, he broke his leg last week.
Summary: ___________________________________________
Do not use a subject
pronoun (I, you, he,
she, it, we, they) and a
subject relative pronoun
at the same time.
e.g. Luis, who he plays
the drums, is an excellent
musician.
3 A: Sara's boyfriend is very tall.
B: Do you know where he lives?
A: He lives two blocks far from here.
Summary : ___________________________________________
