Some more stuff to do

I have another couple of things for you to do while you await the next lesson.

First, you could go out and get one or both of the books to read. I was thinking about making sure we've decided and that everyone has the book by Christmas holiday (coming soon enough!)

So we will need to decide soon. Why don't you leave a comment to state which book you want to read (first).

I also promised a link to the wiki here, but it is on the side bar: http://caewords.wikispaces.com/Word+forms

And yet something else to do: Try out one of the links for language learning and leave a review on the blog for everyone, saying how useful this particular link is and what it can help you with.

And finally, here are some answers for you:

Spiders:
1-E; 2-H; 3-I; 4-D; 5-G
6+7- yeast+bacteria
8-protein; 9-chemical solvents; 10- (small) holes; 11- (the/a) (solid) fibre/fiber;
12-False; 13- true; 14- not given

Progress test 1-3
1: 1-death; 2- complications; 3- romantic; 4- every; 5- dancing; 6- villainous; 7- major; 8- remembered (18 points)

2: 1-b; 2-d; 3-c; 4-b; 5-c; 6-b; 7-c; 8-a; 9-b; 10-d; 11-a; 12-d (12 points)

3: a- on behalf of; b- set up; c- grateful I am for; d- to my taste; e-on the cards; f- made his mark; g-In addition to; h-are just around the corner; i- break up; j- in the long run (10 points)

4: a-reliable; b- tactful; c- contribution; d-inquisitive; e-hesitation; f-caring; g-recognition; h- unforgettable; i- carelessly; j- requirements; k-indicator; l- decisive (12 points)


Stay tuned for more!

Comma rules to come!

Hi

I bought both books and had a look in them. Maybe in these cold and dark winter months we could read first something funny and I'm therefore suggesting you to read the comic novel of Kingsley Amis, The Lucky Jim. What are you thinking about? See you soon Annelise
