about this workbook
About this workbook
Introduction
This w o rk b o o k has been w ritten for students w h o are planning to sit either the Academic or General
Training modules of the IELTS examination. It covers some of the main vocabulary areas tha t you will
need for, or come across in, the Listening, Reading, W ritin g and Speaking sections of the exam.
W e hope that you find the exercises in this book useful, and that the vocabulary you acquire will
help you to achieve the grade you w a n t in the IELTS.
G o o d luck!
Structure of the hook
Each vocabulary area is presented in the form of a self-contained m odule w ith task-based activities
w hich present each vocabulary item in context.
• Pages 1 - 5 7 focus on genera! vocabulary items. Some of these are relevant to specific tasks or
questions in the IELTS examination (for example, describing h o w something works, talking
abo u t changes shown in a graph or table, saying w h e re things are and fo llow ing directions).
• Pages 5 8 - 1 0 4 focus on topic-specific vocabulary areas w hich may be required in the
examination (for example, education, architecture, family matters and science and technology).
Each m odule consists of three tasks: the first t w o present vocabulary items in context, each w ith
a practice or recognition exercise, and the third gives you the o p p o rtu n ity to review the
vocabulary in a gap-fill exercise.
• Pages 1 0 5 - 1 2 4 contain a comprehensive key so you can check y o u r answers. T h e answer key
also gives additional information abo u t specific vocabulary items or general vocabulary areas, as
well as other useful w ords or phrases.
Using the workbook
You should not w o rk through the book mechanically from beginning to end. It is better to choose areas
that you are unfamiliar with, or areas that you feel are of specific interest or importance to yourself.
Recording, reviewing and extending your vocabulary
Rem em ber tha t you should keep a record of n e w words, phrases and expressions tha t you acquire,
and review these on a regular basis so that they become part of yo u r active vocabulary. Also
rem em ber tha t there are other ways of acquiring n e w vocabulary. For example, you should read as
much as possible from a variety of authentic reading materials (books, newspapers, magazines,
web-based articles, etc.).
Using an English dictionary
To help you develop y o u r vocabulary m ore effectively, you should use a go o d m onolingual English
dictionary. This should clearly explain w h a t the w ords mean, sh o w you h o w they are pronounced,
sh o w you their various forms w h e re relevant (e.g., w h a t the noun fo rm o f an adjective is), tell you
which w ords or phrases the y collocate w ith, and give sample sentences to sh o w yo u h o w the w ords
are used. W e particularly recom m end the
