Features: The Seventh and Eighth Grade Exercise Books are two series of supplementary practice materials that are synchronized with the course teaching. During the writing process, we strictly followed the requirements of the "Teaching Syllabus for English Majors in Higher Education" and the "College English Test Band 8 Syllabus (New Version 2004)" to compile various exercises based on single micro-skills, aiming to improve students' practical English skills. The books not only include question types identical to those in the English Band 8 Test samples—listening comprehension, proofreading and error correction, reading comprehension, humanities knowledge, and translation and writing—but also added cloze tests. To enable students to comprehensively assess their English proficiency after strengthening their practice of various micro-skills, we have compiled two sets of mock exams at the end of each of the seventh and eighth grade exercise books, with question types and quantities identical to those of the official English Band 8 Test. In line with the principle of gradual progression, the overall difficulty of the seventh and eighth grades differs. These two books are suitable for third and fourth-year English majors in universities across the country and various English self-learners with comparable proficiency.
The learning materials in this book are compiled based on the requirements of the "Teaching Syllabus for English Majors in Higher Education" and the "College English Test Band 8 Syllabus (New Version 2004)" as various exercises on single micro-skills. Most of the materials are selected from newspapers, magazines, and books in the UK and the US in the past two years, covering a wide range of topics such as politics, economy, culture, and science and technology. The content is fresh, rich, interesting, broad, and profound. Learning these materials not only helps improve English proficiency but also broadens knowledge, fosters analytical and critical thinking skills. Suitable for third and fourth-year English majors in universities across the country and various English self-learners with comparable proficiency.
