Features: If English is compared to a large tree, grammar is the root of this tree. If grammar is not well mastered, even with a vast vocabulary in mind, it is just like scattered branches and leaves. The recent reform of college English teaching requires students' abilities to shift from reading comprehension to comprehensive practical skills. As a result, the College English Test Band 4 (CET-4), which assesses this ability, has also undergone corresponding changes. Although the CET-4 exam has reduced direct grammar structure assessments, grammar remains the fundamental content of English, something students should master. This book is the grammar volume of the College English Test Band 4 High Score Breakthrough series. At the request of readers, it has been revised to be more student-friendly. The revised edition's features are prominently reflected in the following aspects:
1. Comprehensive Coverage with Key Focus
This book covers the main grammar points specified in the College English Teaching Syllabus. The categorization of grammar points reflects the key areas of learning, making it easier for students to grasp them. All grammar points are presented in the form of exam questions, avoiding unnecessary repetition of content already mastered in traditional grammar books, thereby achieving conciseness and highlighting key points.
2. Thorough Analysis and Precise Explanations
Each grammar point in the book is illustrated with classic exam questions, integrating dry grammar rules into more intuitive and easier-to-understand real exam scenarios, helping students better understand and master them.
3. New Structure for Convenient Learning
The important grammar points are grouped into nine categories, divided into nine chapters. With the goal of being "time-saving, effort-saving, and efficient," each chapter is further divided into several sections:
- "Real Exam Questions" help students quickly identify their weaknesses and blind spots in grammar mastery, allowing them to determine their learning priorities and tackle them effectively.
- After studying, students can use the "Pre-test Questions" section to self-assess and check their learning progress.
- If there are still difficulties, the "Answer and Detailed Analysis" section will help you overcome the final challenges.
4. Classic Example Sentences as Learning Aids
Memorization is always necessary, even essential, when learning anything. For English language learning, memorizing certain content can indeed be time-saving and efficient. The book includes a final section with 100 typical example sentences that best illustrate each grammar point. If students can memorize and thoroughly understand these sentences, other corresponding grammar problems will become much easier to solve.
We hope that by fully mastering the content of this book, students can build a solid foundation in grammar. This will not only improve their grammar test-taking skills but also effectively enhance their listening, speaking, reading, writing, and translation abilities in English.
