B2 Reading

There are three parts to the B2 First Reading exam. This write-in student book focuses on each exam part individually, explaining its characteristics and providing guidance on how to respond to the questions. In preparation for taking on several exam-styled texts and questions, each unit contains a series of practice exercises with detailed answer keys that clarify how and why answers are correct. For each exam part, there are two full-length exam-styled texts with questions and answer keys that explain why the correct answers are correct as well as pointing out why candidates may have chosen incorrect answers. The four exam-styled practice tests included in this resource will allow the reader to consolidate their approach to the different types of reading task that will be assessed.
