ÂBrain Tickler questions that follow challenge students and help them determine whether they have gained some mastery of word usage. Sidebars appear on many pages with titles such as ÂMajor Mistake Territory, alerting students to possible pitfalls and problems involving correct understanding of word meanings and normal usage. Each chapter concludes with an ÂOn Your Own section, which invites students to use the target vocabulary list within the context of their own everyday speech. Morbid. . . furtively . . . predecessor . . . infer . . . are typical examples of words students will learn to use with ease. The bookÂ's vocabulary is neither too easy nor too arcaneÂ-focusing instead on words that students should have at their command in high-school and by the time they enter college.
