I want to tell you about the students of 5C, D and E, several of whom
are absolutely outstanding, and some of whom--but not many of whom--are
on the lazy side.
How do I define an outstanding
student? An outstanding student is someone who keeps up with the
homework, asks good questions in class, and tries really hard to
incorporate each lesson in their daily English usage. In addition, an
outstanding student is an individual that takes the class seriously,
which means that he or she attends every day or nearly every
day.
This leads me to your blog work. I have noticed
that its quite incomplete, which means that some of the students, many
of whom used to do their work on time, are not doing so. In fact, for
assignment #17 on reported speech, which was due last Monday, I see only 6 responses, several of which are incorrect.
I'm not sure what to do about this problem, none of which is my fault. Do any of you have some advice for me?
Question for you: How many adjective clauses can you find in the above note?
9

This is just one clause--two clause words with one verb.
