How to handle a long modification?

Hi Teachers,

I have sometimes met with such sentences as:

The tour program that is bla bla bla… works well.

The short predicate with a very long subject or the modifier seems quite awkward. Are there any good ways or principles to rewrite such a sentence?

Many thanks!

There are many things you could try. The method to choose depends on the sentence and its context.

  • There is a tour program that is bla bla bla, and it works well.
  • This tour program works well, because it is bla bla bla / although it is bla bla bla
  • Etc.
