Informal is the correct answer
Answer: (Just a few:-)Adjective clauses:
1. The room <u>where the children sleep</u> is large. (replace 'there')
2. The mailman <u>who delivers our mail</u> is old. (replace 'he')
3. (Tricky) The table of which I fixed the broken leg* is an antique. (awkward but follows the "rule" not to use <u>that.)</u> (replace 'its.)
Better: The table with the broken leg which I fixed is an antique.
Noun clause section:
1. <u>Whoever is ready to work</u> will be welcome.
2. You may be surprised by <u>how much there is to be done.</u>
3. The grand prize will go to <u>whichever float has the best design and workmanship.</u>
Explanation:
The idea is to replace one word--usually a pronoun-- in the second sentence with a relative pronoun (They look like interrogative pronouns: who, which, where, when.)
Then rearrange the words of the second sentence to create an adjective clause and insert the clause after the noun it modifies in the first sentence.

There is a substantial number of books that have been banned from the official system of education, for the reason of being offensive, politically incorrect, or in some other way detrimental for young pupils. Of course, it is utterly understandable to take care and try to raise the students’ social awareness, considering their impressionable nature.
By banning certain books, we try to protect pupils from ideas that we perceive as dangerous. One of those ideas is racism. However, maybe we underestimate the pupils’ (especially older ones, in middle and high schools) capability of understanding and interpreting dangerous texts. Instead of prohibiting those texts, maybe we should let the students read them, while guiding them through the historical context and the books’ present implications. Instead of prohibiting, for example, Hitler’s “Mein Kampf”, maybe we should encourage our students to read it, and guide their understanding as to why this book is dangerous, and which ideas derived from it have had such devastating implications on the world as we know it.
<span>All of us know that “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” is a 19th-century novel that has a lot of N-words. But it is also one of the first novels that puts in center an African American boy, presenting him as the main hero and humanizing the life experience of a black child (even though it might be filled with stereotypes). But instead of banning it, so the students won’t read the N-word, it is far better to read it and interpret it in a critical fashion. Let’s try to come to a conclusion together: what are the social merits of this book, and what are the problems it deals with. At the same time, we should ask our students to detect the stereotypes. Let’s have confidence in their ability to do it, and their resistance to a potentially bad influence.</span>
