In this exercise, note what noun or pronoun in the second sentence either repeats or refers to a noun in the first sentence. The
AlekseyPX

This question is incomplete. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

In this exercise, note what noun or pronoun in the second sentence either repeats or refers to a noun in the first sentence. Then turn the second sentence into an adjective clause beginning with who or whom and use it to modify the noun in the first sentence.

EXAMPLE: <u> Baxte</u>r had no plans for celebrating his 21st birthday.

<u>He</u> had a tall, muscular body and dark curly hair.

SOLUTION:   Baxter, who had a tall muscular body and dark curly hair, had no plans for celebrating his 21st birthday.

1.   So Baxter decided to let his best friend <u>Max</u> fix him up with a blind date.

     <u>Max</u> had a taste for long-legged, romantic women.

2.   <u>Max</u> spent a great deal of time calling 976 "party line" numbers.

     Bax had known <u>him</u> for 15 years.

3.   While talking on the line about a week before, Max had spoken with a young <u>woman</u>.

     He thought <u>she</u> would be the ideal date for Baxter.

4.   The <u>woman</u> said that she would be happy to meet <u>Baxter</u>.

     The <u>woman</u> referred to herself as Cinderella.

     The woman called <u>him</u> her Prince Charming.

5.   So Max arranged for <u>Bax</u> to meet Cinderella the following Wednesday.

     <u>Bax</u> was incredibly nervous.

6.   Max drove <u>Bax</u> to the meeting place, a local Denny's.

     Bax did not have a car.

7.   Max literally had to shove Bax into the restaurant.

     Three 75-year-old ladies roaming around the parking lot pinched Bax.

8.   Bax finally sat down on the yellow vinyl couch near the door.

     Bax had been twisting his burgundy bow tie for hours.

9.   Baxter grew impatient after watching nine single women walk in.

     The women caused his heart to palpitate.

10. Finally, his Cinderella wiggled through the door.

     <u>Cinderella</u> sent his senses roaring with her purple leather mini-dress.

Answer:

1.  So Baxter decided to let his best friend Max, who had a taste for long-legged, romantic women, fix him up with a blind date.

2.  Max, whom Bax had known for 15 years, spent a great deal of time calling 976 “party line” numbers.

 3.  While talking on the line about a week before, Max had spoken with a young woman, whom he thought would be the ideal date for Baxter.

4.  The woman, who referred to herself as Cinderella, said that she would be happy to meet Baxter, whom the woman called her Prince Charming.

5.  So Max arranged for Bax, who was incredibly nervous, to meet Cinderella the following Wednesday.

6.  Max drove Bax, who did not have a car, to the meeting place, a local Denny’s.

7.  Max literally had to shovel Bax, whom three 75-year-old ladies roaming around the parking lot pinched, into the restaurant.

8.  Bax, who had been twisting his burgundy bow tie for hours, sat down on the yellow vinyl couch near the door.

9.  Baxter grew impatient after watching nine single women, who caused his heart to palpitate, walk in.

10. Finally, his Cinderella, who sent his senses roaring with her purple leather mini-dress, wiggled through the door.

Explanation:

<u>A dependent adjective clause is a group of words containing a subject and a verb. It functions in a similar way to adjectives, offering further information about something that was mentioned in another sentence. Adjective clauses are often introduced by relative pronouns such as who, whom, which, or that.</u>

<u>Both "who" and "whom" can only be used to refer to people. But it is important to notice that "who" functions as a subject, while "whom" functions as the object of a verb or preposition. Let's take a look at two of the answers for comparison:</u>

1.  So Baxter decided to let his best friend Max, who had a taste for long-legged, romantic women, fix him up with a blind date. - "Who" refers to Max. Max had a taste for long-legged women. "Who" is the subject.

2.  Max, whom Bax had known for 15 years, spent a great deal of time calling 976 “party line” numbers.  - "Whom" refers to Max. But the subject is Bax. Bax had known Max for 15 years. "Whom" is the object.

News About Turkeys, not Turkey

by David Schlessinger, Editor-In-Chief of Reuters

I once went to an interesting forum. Harvard Professor Joseph Nye spoke on "soft power" in the information age.

"Soft power" is a concept Nye developed. It deals with a person's ability to persuade and attract others to do what you want. This is the opposite of "hard power," or force.

At one point, Nye complained that the news during a stay in London was dominated by "turkeys and not Turkey." The local media mostly covered an outbreak of avian flu on a farm in rural England. There was a near complete absence of "foreign" news.

His point was that, in an information age, people need good access to a variety of information from all over in order to make informed decisions. News reports of nearly all local stories do not give people the tools they need to work in this globalizing world.

The balance of news that people want and that news providers give changes by location. It also changes by the degree to which people are personally affected by a story. You cannot force people to read something they just do not care about.

The spread of the avian flu and its potential mutation is a global story and not just a local one. The key is keeping this story in context. Make sure it is not the only world story you report on!

Like any story, it needs the right balance of expertise, accuracy, balance, and insight.

In a world of "soft power," these are the things that separate journalism from propaganda. They are what separate information from belief.

Select the correct answer.

Which detail does the writer use to support his argument that many people do not think world news is important?

A.

He tells a story about viewing London's news and getting almost no world news.

B.

He talks about the importance of local news as well as world news stories.

C.

He gives the amount of each day's report that should be about world news.

D.

He gives statistics on the number of world news stories his company reports.

Answer:

B.

He talks about the importance of local news as well as world news stories.

Explanation:

According to the article News About Turkeys, not Turkey by David Schlessinger, he talks about how news reporting differs from country to country and how people are using "soft power" to influence people to believe in what they want them to believe in.

Therefore, the detail the writer uses to support his argument that many people do not think world news is important is, he talks about the importance of local news as well as world news stories.
