C2 Idioms in Context: Unit 1-Free Sample

A complete unit from C2 Idioms in Context, free to use with your classes.

Unit 1 (Anger and Irritation) teaches 19 expressions that C2 candidates need to tell apart: a bear with a sore head, up in arms, fly off the handle, get on sb’s nerves and more. Each one has a precise meaning, a usage note on register and form, and an example in context.

This sample contains:
• The contents page and “How to use this book”
• Unit 1 complete, with four exercises: interpretation, key word transformations, discriminating choices and register shift
• The Unit 1 answer key from the Teacher’s Edition, with explanations and model answers

The full book (Student’s Edition, 103 pages + Teacher’s Edition, 72 pages) has 456 idioms and fixed phrases in 20 thematic units, 4 Review Tests, a Final Test and an A–Z index. It is available in my shop.
