If you want to improve your
English, both spoken and written, there is one thing you must know: how to
make better sentences from simple ones.  
Watch the coming video and find out how to make better
sentences from the following two (a situation in which you have to apologize in public):
I
have made a big mistake.  I am responsible for it.
Level I: Watching a Video
Remember to turn on the captions
and annotations.
Level II: Post-Watching
So I guess you’ve got the ‘two ice-creams’:
I have made a big mistake, a mistake that I am
responsible for.  
But you can go further by applying the ‘two
ice-creams’ to other situations such as:
a. upon announcing
something big
| 
We need a new kind of banking service, a service that replaces traditional practices. | 
b. upon presenting your proposal
| 
With an increase in leisure activities, there would be job opportunities, job opportunities that benefit people living in this
  city.   | 
c.
writing an email to promote a vacation package
| 
To help
  you plan your vacation, we have enclosed our resort brochure, a brochure (that) describes our
  facilities and areas attractions.   |
