Description
CXC English is for pupils in the final stage of preparation for the CXC English A exam. The book contains 24 units covering artistic writing, factual writing and the spoken language. Stimulus material includes extracts from novels, short stories, poems, newspaper articles, advertisements and reports. A wide range of assignments and exercises cover extended pieces of writing, group discussion, dramatisation, work on vocabulary, spelling, punctuation and sentence composition. The content relates to the wider world of work and advanced study. Most of the writing comes from the Caribbean and the influence of dialect and English as it is spoken in the Caribbean is a recurring theme. A unique feature of the book is the story of the English language.
