Check Your Vocabulary workbooks are aimed at non-native speakers who want to build essential vocabulary and learn to speak fluent and natural-sounding English. For example, in English we use different words to describe different types of food when they go bad. We can describe meat as rotten, cheese as mouldy, milk as sour and butter as rancid - but we would not say sour meat, or rotten milk. Knowing how words are naturally used together is known as collocation. A good knowledge of these word combinations greatly improves the style of written and spoken language for non-native speakers. Knowledge of collocations is often tested in exams such as Ielts, Toefl and Toeic. Containing a range of word games, quizzes and exercises, this workbook...

Ce volume rassemble, autour du Chef d œuvre inconnu, six autres nouvelles. Elles ont été choisies parce qu`elles traitent de la peinture, où qu`elles ont une valeur picturale particulière, qu`elles sont "colorées". Dans Le Chef-d`œuvre inconnu, le vieux maître Frenhofer met dix ans à terminer son tableau; lorsqu`il le montre enfin, ses amis n`y voient que chaos. Pierre Grassou est, au contraire, un peintre sans talent, humble et touchant, dont s`engoue une famille bourgeoise. Facino Cane met en scène un clarinettiste aveugle, qui entraîne le héros à Venise. L`Elixir de longue vie, L`Auberge rouge, Maître Cornélius, Un drame au bord de la mer suggèrent...

From his teenage years in provincial Russia to his premature death in 1904, Anton Chekhov wrote thousands of letters to a wide range of correspondents. This fascinating new selection tells Chekhov`s story as a man and a writer through affectionate bulletins to his family, insightful discussions of literature with publishers and theatre directors, and tender love letters to his actress wife. Vividly evoking landscapes, people and his daily life, the letters offer revealing glimpses into Chekhov`s preoccupations - the onset of tuberculosis, his dual careers as doctor and writer, and his ambivalence about his growing reputation as Russia`s foremost playwright and author. This volume takes us inside the mind of one of the world`s great...

Finding refuge in a quiet rural backwater, Dr David Hunter hoped he might at last have put the past behind him. But then they found what was left of Sally It isn`t just that she was a friend that disturbs him. Once he`d been a high-profile forensic anthropologist and all too familiar with the many faces of death, before tragedy made him abandon this previous life. Now, the police want his help. But to become involved will stir up memories he`s long tried to forget. Then a second woman disappears, plunging the close-knit community into a maelstrom of fear and paranoia. And no one, not even Hunter, is exempt from suspicion. Gruesome and gripping, this startling new British crime thriller has an unnerving and original twist.
