A selected few Idioms and Sayings have been compiled in contrast to
the matching phrases which share the same meaning. Taken from the
modern English and rich Urdu language, this book allows the reader
to generate conversation and raise much needed discussion around
the message of the Idioms or the Sayings. The mere fact is that
whilst contrasts can be drawn from the text, the reader is able to
read in their preferred script be it Urdu, English or Roman format
simply aiding the learning of language even further. 'Zubaan ki
kadar aye gi...' 'Now you will learn the values of language...'
Sell your book the easy way --- sell a proposal You can get paid to
write a book. It's easily possible to make a fast $10,000, or even
a six figure amount. You could even make seven figures --- over a
million dollars for twenty pages of text. It sounds incredible, but
a fast seven figures is certainly possible if you have a HOT, hot
idea or have had an experience that hundreds of thousands of people
want to read about. In his 2001 book about writing non-fiction, Why
Didn't I Write That?, author Marc McCutcheon says that it's not
hard to make a good income: "you can learn the trade and begin
making a respectable income much faster than most people think
possible." The good part is that you don't need to write your book
before you get some money. You write a proposal, and a publisher
will give you an advance, which you can live on while you write the
book. Writing a proposal is the smart way to write a book. It's the
way professional writers sell non-fiction. Selling a book on a
proposal is much easier than selling a book that you've already
written. A book proposal is a complete description of your book. It
contains the title, an explanation of what the book's about, an
outline of chapters, a market and competition survey, and a sample
chapter. A book proposal functions in the same way as any business
proposal does: you're making an offer to someone you hope to do
business with. It will be treated by publishers in the same way
that any business treats a proposal. A publisher will read your
proposal, assess its feasibility, cost it, and if it looks as if
the publisher will make money, the publisher will pay you to write
the book. When you've sold your proposed book to a publisher, your
role doesn t end with writing your book. You re in partnership with
your publisher to ensure the book's success. If you do your part,
both you and your publisher will make money."

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are

keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the

Nearly three-quarters of public schools in the United States enroll
English language learners (ELLs). That means teachers at all grade
levels need to know how to help these students achieve full
academic English language proficiency. In Dispelling Misconceptions
About English Language Learners, Barbara Gottschalk dispels 10
common misconceptions about ELLs and gives teachers the information
they need to help their ELLs succeed in the classroom. From her
perspective as a teacher of English as a second language,
Gottschalk answers several key questions: Just who is an English
language learner? Why is it important to support home language
maintenance and promote family engagement? What are the
foundational principles for instruction that help educators teach
ELLs across the content areas? How can teachers recognize and
incorporate the background knowledge and experiences ELLs bring to
class? Why is it important to maintain high standards and
expectations for all students, including ELLs? How can a teacher
tell when an ELL needs special education versus special teaching?
By answering these questions, and more, Gottschalk gives teachers a
crystal-clear understanding of how to reach ELLs at each stage of
English language acquisition. Her expert guidance reinforces for
teachers what they are already doing right and helps them
understand what they might need to be doing differently.

This indispensable guide for writers provides details of hundreds
of literary agents, book publishers, and magazines; including
contact details, types of material accepted, and how to approach
them Subject indexes for each area provide easy access to the
markets you need, with specific lists for everything from romance
publishers, to poetry magazines, to literary agents interested in
thrillers. It also provides unparalleled access to international
markets. The internet has made the publishing industry more global
than ever, with markets increasingly accepting submissions by email
(some no longer accept postal submissions at all). Other
directories have failed to respond to this, continuing to focus on
one single country, but this directory provides you with that
all-important access to overseas opportunities that are now just an
email away. And by focusing exclusively on what's important to
writers - contact details for literary agents, publishers, and
magazines - this directory is able to provide more listings at a
lower price. There are no adverts, no advertorials, and no
unnecessary articles or obscure listings padding out hundreds of
pages. Two established alternative directories both run to over 800
pages, yet one has only 204 pages of publisher, agent, and magazine
listings, and the other has only 10 pages devoted to literary agent
listings This book does better on both counts, and yet remains
substantially cheaper than either alternative. The book also
includes free access to the firstwriter.com website, where you can
find even more listings. You can also benefit from other features
such as advanced searches, daily email updates, feedback from users
about the markets featured, saved searches, competitions listings,
searchable personal notes, and more

All students are required to write assignments. Despite this, there
seem to be few books available that provide concise guidelines as
to how to compile them. Those that are available are often outdated
and complicated, and do not illustrate well how the information,
once gathered, should be integrated and implemented. Assignment
writing uses practical examples to show clearly how to approach and
write an assignment. Contents include the following: The process of
assessing, planning, writing, editing and handing in an assignment;
Technical requirements, such as the use of scientific language,
abbreviations, tables and figures, as well as neatness and binding;
Referencing techniques and the compilation of a list of sources;
Formatting the document, from cover to cover. Assignment writing is
aimed at all students needing to produce assignments to the
standard required by tertiary institutions.
