Knowledge: Reduced relative clauses

– Relative clauses can be reduced to the form:

V-ing (present participle): if the relative pronoun acts as the subject and the verb in the relative clause is in the active form.

P2 (past participle): if the relative pronoun acts as the subject and the verb in the relative clause is in the passive

to V-infinitive: if the relative pronoun replaces words containing ordinal numbers such as: first, second, next, third… last, only and superlative

– The subject “an orphanage” cannot perform the action “locate” by itself => the relational model has a passive meaning.

Full sentence: The famous singer has just visited and given gifts to children in an orphanage which/that is located in her hometown.

Short sentence: The famous singer has just visited and given gifts to children in an orphanage located in her hometown.
