3. Percaya Diri

Kemandirian mereka juga disertai dengan kepercayaan diri. Mereka percaya akan kemampuan mereka sendiri, dan mereka memastikan bahwa mereka berusaha sebaik mungkin dan sekaligus mengharapkan hasil terbaik dari usaha mereka. Dunia bisnis sangatlah kompetitif, dan dunia bisnis bukanlah tempat yang cocok untuk orang-orang yang hanya setengah hati dalam berbisnis.

Seorang entrepreneur tahu nilai dari suatu organisasi dalam usahanya berbisnis. Setiap usaha harus difokuskan untuk mencapai sasaran. Entrepreneur atau pengusaha yang baik akan merencanakan langkah-langkahnya, sehingga ia bisa menyelesaikan pekerjaan dengan waktu yang lebih singkat.

Relative Clauses

How to Form Relative Clauses

Imagine, A girl is talking to Tom. You want to know who she is and ask a friend whether He knows her. You could say:

"A girl is talking to Tom. Do you know the girl?"

That sounds rather complicated, doesn't it? It would be easier with a relative clause: you put both pieces of information into one sentence. Start with the most important thing - you want to know who the girl is.

"Do you know the girl ..."

As your friend cannot know which girl you are talking about, you need to put in the additional information - the girl is talking to Tom. Use,, the girl "only in the first part of the sentence, in the second part replace it with the relative pronoun (for people, use the relative pronoun,, who)" So the final sentence is:

"Do you know the girl who is talking to Tom?"

Relative Pronouns

relative pronoun	use	example
who	subject or object pronoun for people	I told you about the woman who lives next door.
which	subject or object pronoun for animals and things	Do you see the cat which is lying on the roof?
which	referring to a whole sentence	He couldn’t read which surprised me.
whose	possession for people animals and things	Do you know the boy whose mother is a nurse?
whom	object pronoun for people, especially in non-defining relative clauses (in defining relative clauses we colloquially prefer who)	I was invited by the professor whom I met at the conference.
that	subject or object pronoun for people, animals and things in defining relative clauses (who or which are also possible)	I don’t like the table that stands in the kitchen.

Subject Pronoun or Object Pronoun?

Subject and object pronouns cannot be distinguished by their forms - who, which, that are sed for subject and object pronouns. You can, however, distinguisg them as follows:

If the relative pronoun is followed by a verb, the relative pronoun is a subject pronoun. Subject pronouns must always be used.

"The apple which is lying on the table"

If the relative pronoun is not followed by a verb (but by a noun or pronoun), the relatve pronoun is an  object pronoun. Object pronouns can be dropped in defining relative clauses, which are then called Contact Clauses.

"The apple (which) George lay on the table"

Relative Adverbs

a relative adverb can be used instead of a relative pronoun plus preposition. This ften makes the sentence easier to understand.

"This is the shop in which I bought my bike."

relative adverb	meaning	use	example
when	in/on which	refers to a time expression	the day when we met him
where	in/at which	refers to a place	the place where we met him
why	for which	refers to a reason	the reason why we met him

 

Defining Relative Clauses

Defining relative clauses (also called identifying relative clauses or restrictive relative clauses) give detailed information defining a general term or expression.

Defining relative clauses are not put in commas.

Imagine, Tom is in a room with five girls. One girl is talking to Tom and you ask somebody whether he knows this girl. Here the relative clause defines which of the five girls you mean.

"Do you know thw girl who is talking to Tom?"

Defining relative clauses are often used in definitions.

"A seaman is someone who works on a ship."

Object pronouns is defning relative clauses can be dropped. (Sentences with a relative clause without the relative prnoun are called Contact Clause).

:The boy (who/whom) we met yesterday is very nice."

Non-Defining Relative Clauses

Non-defining clauses (also called non-identifying relative clause or non-retrictive relative clauses) give additional information on something, but do not define it. Non-defining relative clauses are put in commas.

Imagine, Tom is n a room with only one girl. The two are talking to each other and you ask somebody whether he knows this girl. Here the relative clause is non-defining because in this situation it is obvious which girl you mean.

"Do you know the girl, who is talking to Tom?"

Note: In non-defining relative clauses, who/which may not be replaced with that.

Object pronouns is non-defining relative clauses must be used.

"Jim, who/whom we met yesterday, is very nice."

How to Shorten Relative Clauses?

Relative Clases with who, which, that as subject pronoun can be replaced with a participle. This makes the sentence shorter and easier to understand.

"I told you about the woman who lives next door. -> I told you about the woman living next door."

"Do you see the cat which is lying n the roof? -> Do you see the cat lying on the roof?"

Passive Voice

In passive sentences, the "thing" receiving the action is the subject of the sentence and the "thing" doing the action optionally included near the end of the sentence. You can use the passive form if you think that the "thing" receiving the action is more important. You can also use the passive form if you do not know who is doing the action or if you do not want to mention who is doing the action.

Formula:
[thing receiving action] + [be] + [past participle of verb] + [by] + [thing doing action] 

Examples:

•  The students            are taught           by the professor.
