Reading can be used to help students practice their recognition skills of the eight parts of speech in
English, as well as different types of important structure such as titles, headings, bolding, and italics.
Another important skill that students should develop while reading is the ability to spot synonyms
and antonyms. This beginning to lower-intermediate lesson provides a short reading selection from
which students should extract examples of parts of speech and writing structures as well as finding
synonyms and antonyms.

synonyms and antonyms

My Friend Mark
By Kenneth Beare

Mark’s Childhood
My friend Mark was born in a small town in the north of Canada called Dooly. Mark grew up a happy
and interested boy. He was a good student in school who studied carefully for all his exams and got
very good grades. When it came time to go to university, Mark decided to move to the United States
in order to attend the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon.

Mark at University
Mark enjoyed his time at university. In fact, he enjoyed his time immensely, but he didn’t really
spend the time studying for his courses. He preferred to travel around Oregon, to visit all the sites.
He even climbed Mt. Hood twice! Mark became very strong, but his grades suffered because he was
lazy. During his third year at university, Mark changed his major to agricultural studies. This turned
out to be a very good choice, and Mark slowly began to get good grades again. In the end, Mark
graduated from the University of Oregon with a degree in agricultural sciences.

Mark Gets Married

 Two years after Mark graduated, he met a wonderful, hardworking woman named Angela.
Angela and Mark fell in love immediately. After three years of dating, Mark and Angela married
in a beautiful church on the coast of Oregon. They’ve been married for two years and now have
three
lovely children. All in all, life has been very good to Mark. He’s a happy man and I’m happy for
him.
