Choose the correct word or phrase workbook

in this type of exercise you have to choose the correct word from two or three possible answers. follow our advice:

read the sentence carefully before and after the word.

think carefully about the meaning of the text.

choose the words you know are right.

eliminate any words that you know are wrong.

some words are similar in meaning but there is a difference. do you know the difference between say and tell? make and do? rob and steal? fun and funny?

sometimes the options are wrong because the spelling is wrong.

if you don’t know an answer, choose a word. you may be right!

check your answers carefully when you finish
