Exercises inword formation,also,are a valuable feature of the book,showing the relation of the more important parts of speechand the formation of important groups of words,andgreatly aiding the pupil in learning and correctly usingan extensive vocabulary.  \nThe book consists of three parts:Part I contains a briefreview of the parts of speech and the elements of thesentence,with a variety of exercises in composition.  \nPart II considers the parts of speech,their inflectionsand uses.Much attention is given to the verb and tomany points of special value to the foreign student.Eachpart of speech in its treatment in detail receives applica-tion at once in exercises in composition.This close con-nection of grammar and use is a most important featureof the book.Besides exercises in direct application ofthe lessons in grammar,the composition work in this partincludes,also,exercises in the construction,expansion,contraction and combining of sentences,the developmentof paragraphs,letter writing and the various forms ofcomposition.  \n4  \nPREFACE  \nPart III gives a thorough review of the parts of speechand of the sentence,and includes the more difficult topicsnot treated in Part II.  The composition emphasizesthe sentence,the paragrapn,and the whole compositionin various forms of narration,description and exposi-tion,with some attention to argumentation,debatingand versification.Synonyms,derivations and the for-mation of words are valuable features of this part.  \nThroughout the book the main effort has been to securesimplicity,thoroughness and special treatment of difficulttopics.The definition of the participle,for instance,ashaving the functions both of the noun and the verb,andof the adjective and the verb,greatly simplifies this sub-ject and has the sanction of good authority.The omissionof the potential mode,also,is in accord with present usageamong the best grammarians,and simplifies this subject.The minute analyses of verb phrases have little value forthe student of elementary English,and besides being un-necessary for correct usage,they emphasize points uponwhich grammarians themselves are not agreed.  \nFor valuable aid in the preparation of the book,theauthor wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to Mr.Luther B.Parker,a teacher in Pampanga;Mr.J.M.Gambill,Superintendent of Bataan;Mr.William A.Preuitt,formerly Division Superintendent of Pampangaand Bataan;Miss M.Lois Stewart,teacher of Englishin the Pampanga High School;Miss Mary B.Crans,teacher of English in the Pasig High School;MissCharlotte Neale and Mr.G.M.Egan,teachers of Englishin the Manila High School,who have read the proof ofthe book and offered many helpful suggestions;MissStewart and Miss Neale,who have contributed outlines ofcomposition;and to his wife,whose assistance in bothgrammar and composition has added","cbCaiq2KArqHmfPz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq2KArqHmfPz","pdf",19042138,599,"English","# Preface\n## Book structure and learning approach\n## Composition scope and exercises\n## Acknowledgments and referenced contributions\n## Table of contents overview","[{\"question\":\"Who is the book intended for?\",\"answer\":\"It is prepared especially for use in the intermediate and higher schools in the Philippine Islands.\"},{\"question\":\"What learning method does the book emphasize?\",\"answer\":\"The book is characterized by its use of the inductive method and by extensive illustrations and applications of each grammatical fact.\"},{\"question\":\"How is grammar connected to composition work?\",\"answer\":\"The composition work is developed with and based upon grammar topics, with close connection emphasized through exercises that apply grammar in immediate writing practice.\"}]","Advanced English Grammar and Composition - Preface | PDF",1790855762,1509]
