Phrasal Verbs with Pictures


Book Description

Please remember that you can read your Google Play books on your Apple devices as well. Simply search for “Google Play Books” application on the App Store and log in using your Google credentials and your books are good to go! Phrasal verbs are indispensable parts of the English language. They add a sense of fluency into spoken or written language and render it richer in terms of vocabulary. Knowing and using not all, but even the most common ones would make our English sound more natural. However, the difficult thing about phrasal verbs is to memorize them because, they may have some meanings which are completely irrelevant to their constituent parts. For this reason, we need to learn them by heart, which means “to memorize” them. Although it may sound hard to learn them in this way, using phrasal verbs in actual dialogs makes it easier to memorize them by creating a “match” on the cognitive level. If we support this with images as well, we may have a better chance to retain them in our memories permanently. This is exactly where this book steps in. You will find hundreds of dialogs presented in drawings where characters use phrasal verbs. A total of carefully selected 228 phrasal verbs are given with up to their 3 common definitions. Therefore, you will have to memorize neither the outdated phrasal verbs nor their barely used meanings. There are 38 units in the book, each of which contains 6 phrasal verbs given in an alphabetical order. There is an “Exercises” section at the end of every unit and two Revision Tests after every five units. You will also find a general revision test with 100 questions in the back of the book. This test consists of all the phrasal verbs in this book. You can reach the answers to the exercises by using the buttons below exercise pages. This book also contains links to the videos of each unit. These videos contain a broader explanation of the phrasal verbs and they offer 2-3-minute footages taken from various films where characters use the phrasal verbs presented in the relevant unit. The footages come with subtitles as well. You can reach these videos by using the buttons below pages. After looking at the drawings, reading the dialogs, watching the movie footages and doing the exercises, you won’t have any trouble keeping phrasal verbs in your long-term memory and using them in your own sentences. All you need to do is to make regular revisions, which is a must learning a new language. If you want to have this book as a hard copy with amounts over 100, please contact at [email protected]

Break 'Em Up


Book Description

"[We need] a grassroots, bottom-up movement that understands the challenge in front of us, and then organizes against monopoly power in communities across this country. This book is a blueprint for that organizing. In these pages, you will learn how monopolies and oligopolies have taken over almost every aspect of American life, and you will also learn about what can be done to stop that trend before it is too late." —From the foreword by Bernie Sanders. A passionate attack on the monopolies that are throttling American democracy. Every facet of American life is being overtaken by big platform monopolists like Facebook, Google, and Bayer (which has merged with the former agricultural giant Monsanto), resulting in a greater concentration of wealth and power than we've seen since the Gilded Age. They are evolving into political entities that often have more influence than the actual government, bending state and federal legislatures to their will and even creating arbitration courts that circumvent the US justice system. How can we recover our freedom from these giants? Anti-corruption scholar and activist Zephyr Teachout has the answer: Break 'Em Up. This book is a clarion call for liberals and leftists looking to find a common cause. Teachout makes a compelling case that monopolies are the root cause of many of the issues that today's progressives care about; they drive economic inequality, harm the planet, limit the political power of average citizens, and historically-disenfranchised groups bear the brunt of their shameful and irresponsible business practices. In order to build a better future, we must eradicate monopolies from the private sector and create new safeguards that prevent new ones from seizing power. Through her expert analysis of monopolies in several sectors and their impact on courts, journalism, inequality, and politics, Teachout offers a concrete path toward thwarting these enemies of working Americans and reclaiming our democracy before it’s too late.

Exploring Vocabulary


Book Description

Routledge Introductions to Applied Linguistics is a series of introductory level textbooks covering the core topics in Applied Linguistics, primarily designed for those beginning postgraduate studies, or taking an introductory MA course as well as advanced undergraduates. Titles in the series are also ideal for language professionals returning to academic study. The books take an innovative 'practice to theory' approach, with a 'back-to-front' structure. This leads the reader from real-world problems and issues, through a discussion of intervention and how to engage with these concerns, before finally relating these practical issues to theoretical foundations. Additional features include tasks with commentaries, a glossary of key terms, and an annotated further reading section. Vocabulary is the foundation of language and language learning and as such, knowledge of how to facilitate learners’ vocabulary growth is an indispensable teaching skill and curricular component. Exploring Vocabulary is designed to raise teachers’ and students’ awareness of the interplay between the linguistic, psychological, and instructional aspects of vocabulary acquisition. It focuses on meeting the specific vocabulary needs of English language learners in whatever instructional contexts they may be in, with a special emphasis on addressing the high-stakes needs of learners in academic settings and the workplace. Dee Gardner also introduces a new Common Core Vocabulary, constructed from two of the most well-known and contemporary corpora of English—the British National Corpus and the Corpus of Contemporary American English. Exploring Vocabulary is an essential book for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying vocabulary within Applied Linguistics, TESOL, or Teacher Education, as well as any teacher working with English language learners.
