Test Check Your Vocabulary for Natural English Collocations

Title: Test Check Your Vocabulary for Natural English Collocations
Author(s): Jon Marks and Alison Wooder
Publisher: A & C Black
ISBN: 9780713683172
Date: 2007
Pages: 97
Size: 24.65 Mb
Format: PDF
Quality: High
Language: British English

Check Your Vocabulary workbooks are aimed at non-native speakers who want to build essential vocabulary and learn to speak fluent and natural-sounding English. For example, in English we use different words to describe different types of food when they go bad. We can describe meat as rotten, cheese as mouldy, milk as sour and butter as rancid - but we would not say sour meat, or rotten milk. Knowing how words are naturally used together is known as collocation. A good knowledge of these word combinations greatly improves the style of written and spoken language for non-native speakers. Knowledge of collocations is often tested in exams such as IELTS, TOEFL and TOEIC. Containing a range of word games, quizzes and exercises, this workbook will help intermediate learners to develop core language skills in a challenging, yet entertaining way.

The Writing Template Book

Title: The Writing Template Book: The Michigan Guide to Writing Well and Success on High-Stakes Tests
Author(s): Kevin B. King
Foreword by: Ann M Johns
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
Date: 2006
Pages: 106
Size: 6.09 Mb
Format: PDF
Quality: High
Language: American English

The Writing Template Book is a practical how-to guide for academic writers. Because good writers automatically develop their own internal writing templates that impose clarity and structure on their material, this text provides template examples to help less experienced writers produce the reliable, replicable syntax that is essential to good writing. [+/-]

The Writing Template Book provides numerous examples and practice writing summaries, thesis sentences, introductions, conclusions, and the bodies of typical essays and papers.

Templates are an effective tool for improving performance on standardized tests like the TOEFL® and the SAT®. Writing templates can enhance students’ scores on standardized tests by providing them with a structure that conforms to grading criteria. Students who are able to apply even a portion of the template to their essays will perform at a higher level than if they had not used templates.

A foreword by Ann M. Johns, Professor Emeritus at San Diego State University, positions the roles of templates in current writing pedagogy and describes the additional benefits of templates, such as opportunities to discuss vocabulary alternatives and their semantic values.
