CONIENIS I Yi,
Basic Ettglish Grammar remains a developmental skills text for studentsof English as a
second or foreign language. Serving as both a reference and a tvorkbook, it introduces
students to the form, meaning, and usage ofbasic structures in English. It provides ample
opportunities for practice through extensive and varied exercisesleading to
communicative activities. Although it focuses on grammar, it promotes the development
of all language skills.
This second edition has a greatly expanded range of contents to provide a solid core
of basic English grammar for lower-level or beginning students.It includes numerous
new exercises with, at the end ofeach chapter, cumulative reviervexercisesthat include
additional communicative and interactive student-centered rasks.
Also available are an Answer Key, with answers only, and a Teacher's
Guide, witt
teaching suggestions as well as the answers to the exercises.
