Paperback. Condition: Poor. First Certificate in English Course (1985) by Ona Law (Edward Arnold), ISBN: 9780713182552 ? Condition: Poor ? as sold by Crappy Old Books Step into the golden age of chalk dust and cassette players. This First Certificate in English coursebook is a time capsule from 1985, when vocabulary lists still wore ties and the future perfect was something you?d meet at the end of the corridor. Inside you?ll find everything a sturdy B2 student needed to tame the exam: Use of English drills that line up like toy soldiers, reading passages about earnest office life and heroic train timetables, composition tasks that begin ?You recently?? and end with ?Yours faithfully,? and role-plays in which you apologise charmingly for everything, including the weather. It?s delightfully old-school in all the best ways. Phrasal verbs are corralled into tidy pens (put up with, put off, put away?no sudden movements). Conditionals behave themselves in neat rows (If I studied, I would pass / If I had studied, I would have passed / If only?). There?s pronunciation encouragement that swears /?/ is your friend, and grammar explanations that are so clear you?ll forgive the occasional illustration of a telephone with an actual cord. The exam skills are all here too? Reading , Composition , Use of English , Listening , Interview ?each coached with brisk tips, sensible timing, and the kind of calm reassurance that says, ?Underline the key words and carry on.? This copy is graded Poor , which in our universe translates as: a hard-worked classroom veteran . Expect heavy wear, creases, scuffs, and evidence of previous study life (the odd tick, an underline, perhaps a page corner that has seen things). It?s priced and offered as a functional, well-worn working copy ?perfect for nostalgia, reference, or anyone who believes exercises deserve to look like they?ve been exercised. Filed by Crappy Old Books , where battered old coursebooks get a second oral exam. If you?ve ever wanted to relive the glory of gap-fills , transformations , and the noble art of writing a letter of complaint about a kettle , this is your throwback ticket to B2?with extra charm in the margins. This is an ex-Thornton Heath Library book. Seller Inventory # 4567
