To the student
Advanced Grammar in Use Supplementary Exercises is for advanced students who want extra practice in grammar, without help from a teacher.
There are 168 supplementary-exercises. Each exercise relates to a unit or group of units in Advanced Grammar in Use (second edition, 2005), and the numbers of the relevant Advanced Grammar in Use units are shown at the top of the page. You can use this book if you don't have Advanced Grammar in Use, but for a detailed explanation of the grammar points, you will need to refer to Advanced Grammar in Use.
Many of the exercises are in the form of emails, letters, conversations or short articles. You can use these as models for writing or speaking practice.
To the teacher
Advanced Grammar in Use Supplementary Exercises offers extra practice of most of the grammar points covered in Advanced Grammar in Use (second edition, 2005). Much of the language is contextualised within dialogues, emails, letters and articles, encouraging students to consider meaning as well as form. The contextualised exercises can be used as models or springboards for speaking and writing practice of a freer nature.
The book is designed for students who have already worked through the exercises in Advanced Grammar in Use (or elsewhere) which are relevant to their needs, but who need further, or more challenging practice.
The exercises are organised in the same order as the units of Advanced Grammar in Use, and the numbers of the relevant Advanced Grammar in Use units are shown at the top of the page. The book can be used a basis for further practice in class or as homework.
