Dear student,
I found a new material for you: it’s called Instant English (Parlog, Branzeu, Frentiu) and it contains various exercises which will test your ability to solve grammatical problems, to write on a particular topic or to make correct translations. You also have the key in case you get lost.
Till next time, here are a couple of exercises to further improve your English:
1. Choose the most suitable word of phrase in italics:
a. She passed the examination at/on the first attempt.
b. There is an exception from/to every rule
c. She was resigned to/with working for a minor company for a while.
d. I walked past/passed Madonna’s house every day.
2. Rewrite the following sentences using the word in capitals so that the meaning stays the same. Do not change the word in any way:
a. I don’t know too much about that problem. FAMILIAR
b. Janet is responsible for the sales department. CHARGE
c. Please do not smoke in the building. REFRAIN
d. Sylvia stopped driving because she was afraid she might have an accident. FEAR
