He read the book which was written by his English Professor, Mr. Edward Jeremiah.
EXPLANATION:
Expanding sentences is the method of adding one or more phrases, clauses, or words to the main clause (also known as an independent clause). For any sentence to be complete, instead of being fragmented, it should comprise a main/independent clause. In English grammar, an independent/main clause is a set of words consisting of a subject and a predicate which together convey a whole concept.
To write sentences effectually, we should select which information must be included in the main clause and which to consign to the subordinate or dependent clauses. A subordinate clause is a clause which cannot stand alone as a complete sentence since it does not convey a complete concept. As a rule, we must ensure the most vital information is added to the dependent or main clause, whereas information which ties things together by providing nuance and description is in a subordinate or dependent clause.
