It takes time to learn proper writing techniques and a great deal of practice to improve your skills. Our exercises allow you to improve writing and grammar skills while rewriting English passages. Rewrite the passages as directed. One suggested answer is provided for each passage. As there is no 'best' way to write and rewrite (to be honest, there's simply no particular way), it is recommended that you try your best and rephrase or restructure the sentences as needed. You may write several different versions and then decide which one operates best for your purposes. Note that this level is intended primarily for school students. The English passages and stories included in the exercises differ in content, length, purpose and type. We assume that you can read and write simple information. You can use individual words or learned phrases in familiar situations. You can understand the main idea of basic topics.
