Question

(i) He received a warm welcome when he arrived. Rewrite the clause

Answer 1

Answer:

when he arrived he received a warm welcome.

Answer 2

Answer:

Upon his arrival, he received a warm welcome.

We can rewrite a clause in different types but the most appropriate is to make it similar in meaning as the first one.

Explanation:

• Whenever, we are rewriting a clause we have to keep it as simple as possible.
• Furthermore, if the sentence is given in passive voice then we should change it to active voice.
• In the mentioned sentence, the event of arriving took place before the event of welcome. So, we placed 'arrival' at the beginning as the sentence is in past tense we used 'arrival'.
• Moreover, the preposition 'on/upon' is used in reference with 'arrival' so, 'upon his arrival' is applied here.

Hence, the clause is: Upon his arrival, he received a warm welcome.
