Reseña del libro "English Structure (en Inglés)"
This first book in a series, English Structure covers the different parts of speech and their roles in sentences. Students will learn how to diagram sentences, a task which graphically makes evident common errors such as writing sentence fragments, confusing the pronouns "I" and "me", and using adjectives when adverbs are appropriate. Not all students will need this volume. Those who have read widely and well, or who already achieved a good grasp of grammar, may prefer to proceed directly to the next volume, Usage. English Structure is part of the series Crafting Sharper, Stronger English series; English Structure, The English Sentence Up Close, English Abused, and English Mastery. The series teaches the rules of grammar, syntax, and writing in a clear and systematic way. These books also serve as workbooks, with plentiful exercises to help students identify and remedy their weak points. In the short term, the books will help middle school, high school, and even college students perform better on standardized admissions tests, such as the HSPT, SSAT, PSAT, SAT, GMAT, GRE, and LSAT. More importantly, the books prepare a strong foundation for the communication skills that will serve students throughout their lives. An attempt to redress the loss of instruction in the fundamental of English is the series Crafting Sharper, Stronger English.
