free exercises 

Welcome to the November newsletter for our Free Exercises section of Gapfillers. Is the autumn weather keeping you indoors more than usual? Do you find the shorter days curtail your social life?………… Well, make a positive situation out of the negativity of the time of year, and log onto the Gapfillers website, ignore the inclement weather and the lack of daylight, and polish up your English language skills – by summer 2012 you could be amazed by how far you have come….

 

START HERE, with a selection of exercises to put your skills to the test, and look out for all the other opportunities we offer you at Gapfillers to keep challenging yourself and progressing!

This month we are featuring a famous poem by Shelley – ‘Ozymandias’ recalls the glorious days of the world fascination with all things Egyptian. We also take a look at food companies (in the reading section) and their role in the obesity epidemic being faced in many countries.

Talking of food – read about our 21st Century Nobody’s fun and frolics with a picnic!

The tickets for the 2012 Olympics go on sale, and you can read all about it in the news bulletin. And finally, test your grammar skills with ellipsis’ in speech. ENJOY!
