The perfect choice for upper-intermediate-level students wanting to build their vocabulary. English Vocabulary in Upper-intermediate includes over 2,000 new words and expressions which are presented and practised in typical contexts appropriate to this level. Vocabulary is clearly presented and contextualised on left-hand pages with practice activities on facing right-hand pages. The accompanying CD-ROM provides interesting and enjoyable exercises to further challenge the learner, as well as extra listening practice and help with pronunciation. The book is informed by the Cambridge International Corpus to ensure that the vocabulary selected is useful and up to date. A test book is also available for extra practice. Ideal for self-study or classroom use.

With its clear Cambridge-style structure, this is one of the best ESL vocabulary books available. It's nice to have on the shelf for refreshing particular topics in mind from time to time. But artificial, no-context vocabulary collections don't stay there long enough, no matter how beautiful they may look in the book. One better learns "live" vocabulary directly from fiction books, audio, video, TV, WWW, life... e.g., change your laptop/smartphone interface from your native language to English, and soon you'll have rich computer-related vocabulary installed directly into your brain. Easy and efficacious, ain't it?
این کتاب در افزایش دایره لغات و سازماندهی کلمات توی زیرموضوعات مختلف کمکتون میکنه. توصیه میکنم بر اساس زیرموضوع موردبحثش به همراه کتاب collocations in use استفاده بشه تا ماکزیمم تاثیر رو داشته باشه.
It is a good book to talk about how to memorize vocabulary. Before reading it, I usually recite native meaning by repeating word many times. However, the right way to study a new expression is feeling thier sense in the context.
