INTRODUCTION
Aims of the book
This
book has two objectives:
1 to prepare
you
for the CAE exam Paper 2 (Writing)
and
Paper
3 (English in
Use).
2 to develop
your practical writing skills
to an advanced
level.
There is no
co
nflict between these two object
ives,
because CAE writing tasks are as close to
real-life
situations as
possible, and the examiners use
real-life criteria
in assessing candidates'
work
.
If a piece
of writing would 'do the job'
effectively in real life,
it
should
also
satisfy
the examiners.
Part
3: Units 5-10 cover all the writing task types in
the
CAE
Paper
2 syllabus
.
Task bank:
a further selection of writing tasks, indexed to
the appropriate units.
Key
:
answers to all exercises and Paper
3
questions.
Model answers to Paper 2 Part 1 tasks.
Working through the book
It
is suggested that you
work
through Units
1-5
before
going on to Units 5-1
0, as
each
writing
task in Units
5-10 practises skills that have been developed
in one or
more
of the first five units. Nevertheless,
as
there
is
no
prog
ression
through
the
book in terms
of
difficulty, and
as
Units
1-5
also co
ntain writing
tasks in
the
style of the
exam, the
Units
may be taken in any order
.
Why combine Papers 2 and 3?
For those
unfamiliar
with the CAE exam, it may seem
surprising
that
this
book
co
mbines Paper 3 (the
'g
rammar'
paper)
as well as
Paper 2
(the
'writing
'
paper).
In
fact, this
co
mbination
is inevitable,
given
the
many
areas the two papers have in common. A characteristic
of the CAE exam
is
that grammar is tested
in con
text.
Paper 3 tests the ability to use grammar in order to
communica
te,
and focuses on
many of the key areas of
written com
munication
-
including
register, cohesion,
and
even punctuation.
The Paper
3
exercises:
•
provide exam prac
tice
for Paper 3.
•
are integrated with the Paper 2 work, as controlled
practice
in
writing
skills.
•
are
models
(well written, well
organizee, and usually
about 250 words
long),
which
may be referred to when
doing the
writing
tasks that follow
them.
•
demonstrate different
registers
and explore different
aspects of
the theme of the Unit.
•
are
usually based
on authentic
texts.
Classroom work and self study
This book can be used in class, for self
study,
or for a
com
bination
of
the
two.
In
class
Each
Unit
is divided into modules
which can
be taught
in
class
in about gO minutes
(plus
homework).
Explanations, presentatio
ns
and
activities are
followed by
Paper 3 exercises and either mini
writing
tasks
or
full-
scale Paper 2 tasks
.
Suggestions for pairwo
rk
are
sometimes included when an exercise wou
ld
be more
enjoyably done with a partner; many
other
exercises can
also be done
in
pairs and group
s.
For self-study
Many
features
of the book make it especially useful for
self study:
How the book is organized
Part
1: the
first
part
of
the book contains
an introduct
ion
to CAE Papers 2 and 3,
followed by
preliminary work on
three key areas of writing skills at
this
level: style and
register, cohesion
,
and punctuation
.
It
is intended that
this part
of the
book
should
be usee for preparatory
work,
remed
ial wor
k,
and
reference.
Part
2: Units
1-
5 divide writing into
types
(descriptions,
instructions,
narrative and argument), to develop
the
skills specific to each type. At
the
same time, each
Unit
looks at a
variety
of registers, to focus
on
the importan
ce
of the cont
ext
and the purp
ose
of a piece of writing
.
•
the introductory
units, with their thorough treatment of
register, style, cohesion and punctuation
.
•
the use of Paper 3
writing
tasks
as co
ntrolled
writing
practice, easily co
rrected
with
the key when working
without a teacher.
•
the
inclusion
of
model
texts in the
form
of Paper 3
tasks, and
the
inclusion of model answers in the key.
•
the fact that it is self-contained
:
it is the
student'
s
book, the teacher's book and the key
all
in one.
Non-exam use
Because
of
the
'real-life'
nature
of the CAE writing
syllabus and assessment criteria, this book can be used
just as successfu
lly
as a general writ
ing course
at
advanced level focusing on practical writing tasks.
