All About English Grammar & Vocabulary

[optimistforum]

nansk:

I have not seen such exercises in any book in Singapore bookstores.


However, it should be pretty easy to make your own worksheets of this type. Just copy a few sentences from fiction/non-fiction books your child is currently reading.

Never mind, I will cover up the words in the vocab cloze section, and fill the blanks with the partially filled vocab words

I take it that you're an English teacher?

There is one book which I find quite comprehensive and well-written, and it makes for a good reference, especially for primary school. I use it as part of my teaching regime.

May i know which one is correct:

Alan climbed up the tree slowly so he would not fall

My take is the sentence in red is correct.

[phtthp]

"Would" not fall is correct.


"Would" is definite.
"Might" is not definite - can be may or may not.

[dimsum]

"Would not fall" sounds more correct to me.
