Relative Clause sorularında bırakılan boşluğun öncesi bize yardımcı olur. İlk boşluğun önüne baktığımızda ‘India’ diyerek bir yerden bahsediyor. Aklımıza gelen ilk Pronoun ‘where’ dir. Ancak yerin arkasından doğrudan bir fiil geliyorsa ‘where’ kullanamayacağımızı unutmayalım. Non-Defining Relative Clause’larda that kullanamayacağımız için ‘B’ seçeneğini eleriz. Bir zaman vermediği için ‘C’ seçeneğini de eleriz, ikinci boşluğa baktığımız zaman ise bir okul adı verilmiş, boşluğun arkasından fiil geldiği için bu sefer ‘where’ kullanamayız, ‘which’ kullanabiliriz. Yani ilk boşluk ‘where’ ikinci boşluk ise ‘which’ dir.
