Advanced Vocabulary and ldiom is for students who already have a good command of the bas~c structures of English and who now wish to increase their range of vocabulary and idiom, and to gain more knowledge of particular styles of English. It glves invaluable assistance to students preparing for advanced examinations in English.

To the student

Advanced Vocabulary and ldiom presents words and phrases from a wide variety of topics and gives practice in different styles of English, such as formal, colloquial and slang, advert~sing and newspaper headlines. The types of exercises are varied and students are helped to understand not only what the words mean but also how they are used. Learners on their own should avoid going through the book mechanically. Exercises should be done at intervals and as a supplement to other materials and activities, and students should give themselves time to practise what they have learnt before going on to learn more. It is not satisfactory simply to complete the exercises and understand the new words in them. Learners must actually use the words in conversation, composition and letters before they can feel confident that these words are part of their active vocabulary.

To the teacher

Advanced Vocabulary and ldiom is divided into twelve sections, each concentrating on a different aspect of vocabulary and its use. Dictionary Practice is designed to increase students' awareness of the ways in which a dictionary can be used. Topics and Related Word Groups introduce new words and phrases as useful preparation for conversation and composition on given subjects. Word Formation contains exercises to increase awareness of how words are constructed. Problem Words is intended as a reference section to be used as and when problems arise with particular words and phrases. ldiom introduces groups of common idiomatic words and phrases, and requires students to put them in the contexts provided. Identification contains brief comprehension exercises in particularly areas of vocabulary. The Description exercises first provide practical comprehension practice based on certain kinds of common description, and then require students to use what they have learnt in this process by giving similar descriptions of their own. The exercises in Style assist students systematically to understand formal, colloquial and other more specialist forms of English and then, where it is useful, require them to produce the same kind of language themselves. Spoken English introduces certain common colloquial forms and will be especially useful for students who do not study in English-speaking countries and therefore do not have the advantage of hearing this kind of language around them. The Miscellaneous section contains a variety of exercises: Geo-political Names will help students to understand newspapers and other mass media; Names and Titles and Abbreviations give practical information about everyday English usage; Foreign Words and Phrases, Proverbs and Euphemisms provide useful knowledge of commonly-used expressions. Word Games provide entertaining puzzles. Use a good dictionary to do the following exercises. If you like, you can try to do them without help first, but check your answers in a dictionary afterwards.
