Here are the filled-in blanks:

  1. Do you know the man who sells fruits?
  2. Bring me the notebook that is on the shelf.
  3. Mary, who has been in Great Britain recently, wants to send you something nice.
  4. The green car which is for sale, belongs to my cousin.
  5. Did you meet the girl who gave you that book?
  6. The thief said that he didn't steal that bag, which was not true.
  7. I want to buy the black dress which is very trendy.

Explanation:

who: Refers to people and acts as the subject of the relative clause.

that: Can refer to both people and things, often used when the antecedent is clear from the context.

which: Non-essential information about things, usually set off by commas.

In example 5, "that" is used because the notebook is already referenced, making it clear from the context. In example 9, "which" is used since the information about the bag is not essential to the main clause. In example 10, "that" is used for the first part as it refers to a specific dress already mentioned. However, "which" is used for the second part as it describes the dress and is non-essential information.

4- that
5 thats
6-who
7-which
8-who
9- which
10-which
