Noun clauses introduced by question words and Empty subject it
Step 1: Noun clauses introduced by question words
Remember: Noun clauses introduced by question words can be used as the subject, object or predictive of the sentence.
1. Let’s go through English and its history on pages 22 and 23 and try to find as many noun clauses as possible. Such as:
In fact, it is certain that we would not be able to understand it if we heard it today. (subject)
The question of whether English will continue changing in the future is easy to answer. (object)
That is why English is a language with so many confusing rules. (predictive)
2. Go over Part 1 on page 28 to get to know which question words are usually used to introduce noun clauses. Such as: wh at, which, who/whom, whose, when, where, why and how.
3. Let’s read the example sentences in Part 2 and we should pay special attention to the word order in the noun clause.
4. Please focus on Part 3. Note that all the question words introducing the noun clauses are used as a certain element in the sentence, so they cannot be left out.
5.Read the diary in Part A on page 28 to find out what sentence element each noun clause is in the sentence.

It is important that we should learn English well today. (subject: that we should learn English w ell today)

3. Go over Point 2 on page 30 in pairs to familiarize us with how to use it. More examples are given as follows:
4. Read Point 3 on page 30 to make sure you understand situations that call for empty subject it.
