A good vocabulary is at the heart of 11 plus and Common Entrance
exams, such as those set by the Centre for Evaluation and
Monitoring (CEM), compiled by Durham University, and Granada
Learning (GL), also known as NFER. Both the verbal reasoning and
comprehension sections of these exams typically contain questions
to test breadth of vocabulary and ability to infer meaning for
previously unknown words. This book contains intentionally
difficult and unfamiliar vocabulary to encourage students to infer
the meaning of new words from the context of the given classic or
contemporary passage. The Vocabulary in Context series of books
increase in levels of difficulty so as to encourage consistent,
long-term development of reading and comprehension skills. The
purpose of this book is to develop the important skill of reading
in context and not just for memorising new vocabulary. This book
targets the key skills involved in verbal reasoning and
comprehension and is a unique and form of study for the 11 plus.
This book also includes an interesting word origin or idiom on each
page.
