Roadmap B1 Workbook Unit 2 - Unit 2B Vocabulary & Grammar

Oct 1, 2026

Roadmap B1 Workbook Unit 2 focuses on vocabulary and grammar practice for expressing feelings, events, and reactions, including matching adjectives to situations and completing sentences with -ing/-ed adjective forms. Learners choose correct alternatives to reinforce common emotional language, then use past simple and past continuous through a listening-style dialogue and transform prompts into accurate sentences. A second section builds on memories and emotions with word-box exercises, sentence rewrites, and correction and production tasks using “used to.”

FAQs

How do I complete sentences describing feelings and events in this unit?

Use the adjectives from the box to match each scenario (for example, concentrating at work, forgetting a name at a party, hearing a strange noise while camping).

What’s the difference between past simple and past continuous tasks here?

The exercises ask you to choose the correct verb form for actions in progress versus completed actions in the past, based on cues in the dialogue (e.g., “were you doing” vs “did”).

How do “used to” exercises work in the workbook?

You correct mistakes using “used to” and write sentences about Mark to compare past habits or states with the present (past: used to + verb; now: present form).
