Part Two　 Practice A

T: Now let’s look at Page 65, Help Daniel complete his notes with relative pronouns.

l　　　　 The first film that Bruce acted in was made in 1946.

T: All right. Because in defining relative clauses, we use relative pronouns ‘that’ only if the nouns are modified by ‘the first’, ‘the last’ or the superlatives of adjectives. Look at the following sentences.

1) This is the best that has been used against air pollution in cities.
