作者自序

【作者序】It is impossible to include every useful word and cover every aspect of grammar in an IELTS test preparation book. We have tried to cover some useful topics and include some key points we feel are the most useful for you in your study. As such, we have tried to highlight frequent errors, common areas of confusion and useful structures for all parts of the test. Each unit is structured around a central topic which you are likely to come across in the IELTS test. Every unit begins with a short warm up, followed by vocabulary and exercises. This is followed by a key grammar point for the unit. Finally a review section helps you to remember what you learned.Rather than only including a list of individual words, we show you how to use words in sentences and how to improve your own sentences by using phrases and combinations of words together. In the grammar section of each unit, you will find useful tips and helpful explanations to help you understand how to use the structures. In addition, examples which can be used in the IELTS test for both speaking and writing are included so that you can understand how to apply your own knowledge in the real exam. Lastly, the review exercises focus on different aspects of the speaking and writing test, to help you to feel more confident and understand what you need to do to improve both your range and accuracy while using English.I hope that you find this book useful, and wish you every success in your test!文法與單字範圍極大，《連雅思主考官都讚嘆的雅思單字+文法》盡可能涵蓋當中的重點精華及學生最需要釐清的觀念及字彙，我們將容易混淆、常見錯誤及有用的文法架構闡述清楚。每個單元的主題都是雅思常考範圍，並且有簡短的warm up及字彙練習等自我訓練的方式，除此之外，更在每一個單元中解釋一項常考文法要點，最後由類似考試題型的方式作為複習總結，本書除了有單字之外，我們還將常用片語及短語等整理出高分用法，讓考生在口說及寫作考試時可以輕鬆展現高分能力。希望各位考生能在詳讀完這本書後有所收穫並且拿到高分！James Brown、Hanna Hu
