Better late than never

At last I could find the time to scan the solutions for the Reading and grammar textbook exercises. Sorry for the delay. I’m a very busy teacher. However, here are the solutions for you check up your notebooks. I hope you can find some time to correct your answers, so that you can keep your English up. Well, I reckon that sometimes it’s a bit like the English saying: “Better late than never”, isn’t it?

How to hit the nail on the head




Do you exactly know how to study for your exams? If you don't, here are some useful tips to hit the nail on the head in your next English TESTS.
Firstly, let's respond the most typical students' question right before any exam: "Profe, qué entra en el examen?" or in English, "What will the exam be like?" Well, you know what: you'd better have a look at the first two pages of your textbook more often. There you'll find all the exam contents. They are normally classified into different skills like grammar, vocabulary, speaking, pronunciation, writing, reading & listening. However, please try not to procrastinate too much, simply because you can't learn all the vocabulary and assimilate every grammatical content in just a few days. So, organize your own time and daily work, so that you make sure that you've got plenty of language practice before the exam. Classroom practice is not enough for you to get most of the answers right in the exams. Therefore, please set some time for your own language practice and study at home, early enough to feel yourself confident to get the best results as possible.
Secondly, make sure that you are perfectly familiar with the number of questions and the way the questions will be like and that you understand all the instructions of every single activity. Here's your last exam, its key and the audio as well. Finally, good luck, please don't lose your time and enjoy your English.
