To the Teacher
There is no need here to describe the different types of exercises which this
book contains or to discuss their wide variety and extent. A glance through
the following pages is enough to acquaint anyone with the book's general
contents.

Since this is a workbook, there is also little to say as to how it should be

used. Each exercise carries its own instructions, and the students proceed
accordingly. On the other hand, there are a few points of general
pedagogy which the teacher using the book should keep in mind.

a workbook, and all explanatory material has been kept to a

First, this is

minimum. Thus, the book is not designed to be used alone or to replace

completely the regular classroom text. Rather, this book should be used to
supplement the regular classroom text, to give needed variety to the
lesson, or to provide additional drill materials on important points of
grammar and usage.

Second, as a teacher using this book, don't assume that after students
have written the answers to an exercise correctly, they know the material
thoroughly and can use the principle in their everyday speech. The
exercise is often only the beginning. Much drill and practice are still
necessary. Therefore, ask questions or introduce simple conversation
involving the particular grammar principle. Also, don 't hesitate to repeat
the exercises in the book several times. Run over these exercises orally in
class. If the students have already written the answers in their books, they
can cover these answers with their hand or with a separate sheet of paper.
Continue to review past exercises which seem important to you or which
have given the students difficulty.

don 't fall into the further error of assuming that some of the exercises

book are too easy for your particular students. Certain exercises may

seem easy to you— especially if you speak English as a native— but they still
represent a real challenge to anyone studying English as a foreign
language. In this connection, there is one additional point of utmost
importance which should be kept in mind. We are not interested in these
exercisesin tricking or even in testing the student. The exercises are not
designed to find out how much a student knows or does not know. Their
purpose is simply to drill the student on certain basic points of grammar
and usage. The exercises are practice exercises— nothing more. They
provide just another means of having students repeat materials which can
be learned only through continuous use. For this reason, the exercises have
been made as simple ans as clear as possible. For the same reason a good
deal of direct repetition has been purposely introduced, not only in
individual exercises but throughout the book.
There are three workbooks in the series. Book 1 is for the beginning student-
Book 2 is for the intermediate student; Book 3 is for the advanced student.
As regards the exact division of material, this plan was followed: The
exercises in Book 1 more or less parallel the development by lesson of the
material in Beginning Lessons in English A and B. Similarly, Book 2 follows
the general development of the lessons in Second Book in English. Book 3
reviews the material in Books 1 and 2 and focuses on special problems on
the advanced level. All the books mentioned are published by Prentice
Hall Regents.

Regents English Workbooks are readily adaptable to many uses and can
serve effectively to supplement any standard classroom textbook. A
perforated answer key at the back of the book makes classroom use or
self-study equally feasible.

to tell a secret to tell about something

to tell the truth to tell a lie

The word that when used as a conjunction to introduce a

subordinate clause, as in these sentences, is often dropped in
everyday speech. Thus we may say, "He said that he was busy" or
"He said he was busy." Both forms are used, and both are correct in
English.

Write the correct form of say or tell in the blanks.

1 The teacher us (that) he was too busy to see us. told

2. He (that) he had too much work to do.

3. Peter (that) English was difficult for him.

4. Can you me where I can find Mr. Smith?

1 24 Indirect object position
Certain verbs can take both an indirect and direct object. We
use the prepositions to or for if the indirect object comes after
the direct object.

He gave the money to me.

They bought a present for you.

I told a story to everybody.

When the indirect object comes before the direct object, no

preposition is used. Verbs like give, send, bring, write, tell, lend, pay,
and buy follow this pattern.
He &ave me the monev.

They brought you a present.

I told everybody a story.

Restate the following sentences, putting the indirect object before

the direct object. Write the verb and the indirect object in the
blanks.

1 He wrote a letter to Susan. ornate Sct&xn
