Part 1: Multiple Choice Cloze
—
® Skim-read the text to get an idea of what it is about.
® Read the text again, one sentence at a time. Read the
whole sentence, not just the words before and after the
gap, as there may be clues that could help you.
® Try to guess what part of speech is missing and what the
meaning of the missing word is.
® Do not look at the four choices or guess the answer until
you’ve tried to understand what the sentence means.
@ Do not always think of words as single isolated items, but
as parts of a context.
® Read the options carefully.
Decide which of the four choices is best in this context.
Consider syntax and style.
Find which of the choices may have the same meaning
and decide which one should be left out.
If you aren’t sure about the right answer, try to eliminate
three of the four alternatives starting with the words that
don’t make sense.
® Check if the word you have selected forms an acceptable
expssion with the word before and/or after it.
Read the text again including the words you used to fill in
the gaps to see if it makes sense.
Part 2: Open Cloze
® Skim-read the text to get an idea of what it is about.
® Read the text again, one sentence at a time. Read the
whole sentence, not just the words before and after the
gap, as there may be clues that could help you. Note that
sometimes you may find clues in other sentences, too.
® Try to guess what part of speech is missing and what the
meaning of the missing word is.
0 Remember most of the missing words will be grammatical
words, ppositions, pronouns, auxiliary verbs, articles,
linking words etc. and not vocabulary items.
Part 3: Word Formation
0
Remember: there is only one missing word. If you think
that two or more words are suitable, you will have to
choose and w rite only one.
0 ‘Check for accuracy of grammar and spelling.

the gaps to see if it makes sense.
L
® Skim-read the text to get an idea of what it is about.
® Read the text again, one sentence at a time.
® Decide what part of speech is needed to fill in the gap.
The words to be formed will usually be nouns, verbs,
® Decide if the word to be formed has the same or the
opposite meaning of the given word according to the
meaning of the sentence.
® Remember that you will need to add a pfix and/or a
suffix to the given word to form a derivative. Sometimes
you m ight also add an ending to the derivative (e.g. -s
after a noun, -s, -ed, -ing after a verb, -er, -est after an
adjective). Note, however, that you never need to make
more than two changes to the given word.
® Make sure the new word and given word have a common
root and that you have spelt the new word correctly.
® Read the text again including the words you used to fill in
the gaps to see if it makes sense.
Part 4: “Key” Word Transformation
® Read the given sentence, the incomplete sentence and
the ‘key’ word.
® Consider what kind of transform ation is required, e.g.
passive voice, reported speech, conditional sentences
etc. Look for clues in both the given and the incomplete
sentences.
0
Remember that your answer must be between two and
five words. Keep in mind that you must definitely use the
‘key’ word and not change it in any way at all.
® Write your answer, making sure that the completed
sentence means the same as the given sentence.
® Check for accuracy of grammar and spelling.
Exam Tips for A ll Parts of the Paper
0
When dealing with each of the four parts, start with the
questions that seem easy to you. Leave the ones you
aren’t sure about until later.
® Do not spend too much time on any one question. Go
back and try to answer it later.
® Answer all the questions, even those you are not
completely sure of. Make a sensible guess rather than
leave a question unanswered.
0 Do not w rite more than one answer for each question.
® Write your answers on the answer sheet clearly and
correctly.
ECCE
In this part of the test there are 35 multiple-choice items which test basic knowledge of grammar. Candidates are required to
choose a word or phrase which will complete the given sentence in a grammatically correct way.
Remember:
& Read the sentence or short exchange carefully and consider what kind of structure is required.
& Look at the position of the gap in the sentence and consider what part of speech is required.
& Look out for words (e.g. linking words) or expssions (e.g. tim e expssions) that can help you decide on the
correct answer.
Consider the syntax and style of the sentence.
Read the four answer choices carefully and decide on the correct answer.
If you are not sure about the correct answer, try to eliminate the answer choices that are grammatically incorrect.
Once you have decided on the correct answer, read the sentence or short exchange together with your answer,
making sure that they form a grammatically correct sentence.
& Make sure you transfer your answers to the answer sheet clearly and carefully.

&
&
There are 35 multiple-choice items in this section which test basic knowledge of vocabulary. Candidates are required to choose
the word or phrase which is appropriate in the context of the sentence.
Remember:
& You should always learn new words in context. You can even try to use these new words in your own example
sentences. This helps you remember new vocabulary instead of simply memorising their definitions in your mother
tongue.
@ You should learn verbs, nouns and adjectives with their dependent ppositions (e.g. laugh at somebody, talent
for something, be good at something).
& Try to remember collocations (e.g. make a mistake, do one’s homework) and fixed expssions (e.g. at the
beginning of, in the beginning) that are considered problematic because they are quite similar.
& Learn how to break down words in order to find the root, pfix and suffix. This w ill not only help you learn more
words but also help you understand how they are formed. This w ill automatically increase your awareness of the
language.
& You can greatly improve your vocabulary by reading as many authentic English texts (e.g. books, magazines) as
possible.

Teacher’s Notes
Teacher’s Wotes
Use of English B2 for the FCE E xam in atio n a n d other exam s is intended fo r B2 level students. A part from th o ro u g h ly
pparing students fo r all exams, this book also system atically teaches English gram m ar and vocabulary. The texts included
are based on a va rie ty of interesting and m otiva ting topics w hich are com m only found in exam inations.
The m aterial included in the book is g radually psented and practised in 12 units (Units 1-4,6-9 and 11-14) and consolidated
and revised in units 5,10 and 15. All 15 units include exercises w hich are in accordance w ith the FCE Exam ination and the
ECCE form at, w hile the Final FCE and Final ECCE Tests provide students w ith fu rth e r practice and fam iliarise them fu lly w ith
the C am bridge FCE Use of English Paper and the Gram m ar and Vocabulary sections of the ECCE.
Each o f the units 1-4, 6-9 and 11-14 has been pid ed in to tw o sections. The firs t section m ainly focuses on gram m ar.
Collocations, expssions, ppositional phrases, phrasal verbs and w ords w ith ppositions are psented and practised
th ro ug h exercises. These exercises enable students to id e n tify the syntactic and sem antic features o f the item s introduced
and see how they are used in m eaningful contexts. Appendices I and II alphabetically psent all ppositional phrases and
w ords w ith ppositions w hich are introduced in the book.
In section 1 some gram m atical structures are also revised by means of a num ber of exercises. Although these exercises do not
follow the exact exam ination form at, they practise sentence transform ation and te xt com pletion, thus pparing the ground
fo r the corresponding parts of the FCE Use of English Paper and the ECCE Gram m ar section. Some basic rules are given in
the form of ‘Points to Remember’ accom panied by illu strative examples w hich h ig h lig h t the co rrect gram m atical structures
as well as some mistakes co m m only made by students. Finally, the m ost com m on sentence transform ations related to the
gram m atical structures explained are psented. For fu rth e r explanations, students can refer to the corresponding part of
the special Gram m ar Revision Section at the end of the book.
The firs t section o f each u nit ends w ith a sub-section called exam ination practice. This includes tw o exercises w hich have
a sim ilar fo rm a t to FCE Use o f English Gram m ar and Vocabulary and ECCE tasks and test a selection of the items th a t have
already been introduced in the unit.
The second section o f each o f the units 1-4,6-9 and 11-14 m ainly focuses on vocabulary. In this section, seven to nine groups
of w ords th a t are easily confused are psented and practised through a num ber of m ultiple m atching/sentence com pletion
exercises. D efinitions w hich h ig h lig h t the differences between the words in each group are given in the special Vocabulary
Section at the end of the book.
The second section of each u nit ends w ith a sub-section called exam ination practice. This includes tw o exercises w hich test
a selection of the item s th a t have already been introduced in the unit.
Section 2 also includes a sub-section focusing on derivatives. In each unit, a num ber o f com m on pfixes and/or suffixes
added to verb, noun or adjective roots is discussed and b rief rules accom panied by illu stra tive tables and exam ples are
given. This is follow ed by an exercise practising the patterns ta ught. A ppendix III psents all derivatives dealt w ith in the
book + m ore in alphabetical order.
The syllabus of the book includes all the m aterial that is com m only required fo r Paper 3 of the FCE Examination as well as fo r
ECCE and other exams and should be mastered by students at this level. Despite its com phensiveness, this book cannot
be regarded as exhaustive, as it is possible th a t a few items not included in it may be set in fu tu re exam inations.
Use of English B2 fo r the FCE Exam ination and other exam s has been s p e c ific a lly designed to be co m p le te d in
a pp ro xim a tely fo rty -fiv e teaching hours, provided th a t some o f its parts are assigned as hom ew ork. It is recom m ended
that m ost of the exam ination practice sub-sections and consolidation units should be assigned as hom ew ork and discussed
in class.
The G ram m ar Review, V ocabulary Notes and Appendices at the end o f the book are m eant to be used by students fo r
reference, although some parts may have to be explained in class by the teacher. The section including the exam tips should
be explained in class, though, before the firs t Consolidation Unit is done. A fter com pleting each Consolidation Unit, teachers
should do the corresponding photocopiable Revision Test in class allow ing students about one hour and fifte e n m inutes
to com plete it.
