Reading in The Content Areas&Drills on Slash Sentences _{Drills on Slash Sentences}

Reading in the Content Areas is as a matter of fact can be classified as “one-of-its-kind” since the reading is geared to meet the diverse needs of students attending universities where English is either the medium of instruction or is only used in EFL classes. Whatever the situation is, students and needless to say instructors will highly enjoy using this book in their classes as each unit is designed in such a way so as to improve the vocabulary, reading comprehension, writing and most importantly the speaking skills of students through pre-reading, reading and post-reading activities. The second part of the book consists of Drills on Slash Sentences and these sentences are organized in a graded manner so as to help students with constructing meaningful and at first short but later longer and more complex sentences. Therefore the second section could either be used as a self-study book by students to improve their skills in putting words in a logical order so as to accomplish the task of achieving meaningful sentences, or instructors could use it as a supplementary aid to enrich the sentence construction activities of students as the first step to writing passes through the sentence composition stage. We hope each and every instructor and student who uses this book will reap its benefits and avoid all problems arising from language barriers in their classes.
