Аннотация:
A classic developmental skills text for intermediate to advanced students of English, Understanding and Using English Grammar is a comprehensive reference grammar as well as a stimulating and teachable classroom text. While keeping the same basic approach and material as in earlier editions, the Fourth Edition more fully develops communicative and interactive language-learning activities. Some of the new features are: — Innovative warm-up exercises that precede the grammar charts and introduce points to be taught; — Structure-based listening exercises ranging from casual speech to academic content; — Academic readings that highlight the targeted grammar structures; — Greatly expanded speaking practice with extensive pair, group and class work; — Corpus-informed syllabus that reflects the discourse patterns of spoken and written English.
