HOW TO MASTER ENGLISH

This is the third book in the very popular series.

Lots of intermediate English speakers tend to get trapped using the same vocabulary over and over again. They often only speak about subjects they know the words for and avoid anything outside of their 'comfort zone'. The problem with this is that even though they sound ok, they never really get any better. 
If you really want to improve, you need to be able to speak about a wide range of topics. For this, you will need to learn the special vocabulary connected to these topics.

How to become a fluent English speaker

This book is intended for intermediate English learners.

There are many things that make an excellent English speaker but one of the main things is that they can speak about a lot of different topics easily. Many students at the intermediate level can speak quite well about some topics but get completely lost when someone talks about an unfamiliar subject. This book helps you to build your vocabulary in 12 very useful and common subjects.

Six ways this book will help you towards English fluency

One) This book covers 12 very common topics. The vocabulary used is ‘specialised’ but is also in everyday use.

Two) If you can only speak about a few limited subjects you will not become fluent. This book helps you to break out of these limits.

Three) This book features 182 new words and phrases introduced in context  (short stories or articles). This makes it both fun to learn and easy to see how they are actually used.

Four) Each new word or phrase is explained in simple English. This will help you get used to thinking in English rather than translating from your own language all of  the time.

Five) There are example sentences for each new word or phrase. This will help you master both the meaning and the use of the word.

Six) At the end of each chapter there is an ‘Extra Practice’ section. This features TV shows and Youtube channels that will help you practice the language.

Ok let’s get started.

Conclusion

Computers

Part One

Computers are amazingly helpful but when they go wrong they can completely mess people up. Nowadays it seems that people can’t do anything without computers. If the computer stops functioning then we can’t function. We have become completely dependent on them. I came to realize just how much we depend on computers when I was working at a local company last year. The computer I was working on needed some new software. I think it was an upgrade to the operating system or something. Everything was going fine and then suddenly the image on the monitor started going crazy.

Vocabulary and Phrases.

Software: These are programmes that you can install onto your computer to perform certain functions. For example if you wanted to make a video, you would install ‘video making software’ onto your computer.

Example: I like to run Linux on my computer because a lot of the software is actually free.

An upgrade: This is when you make improvements to your computer or install a newer or better piece of software on  your computer.

Example 1: I decided to get my computer’s memory upgraded.

Example 2: This piece of software comes with free yearly upgrades.

Operating system (OS): This is the main software on a computer. It acts as an in-between software between the hardware and any program you may run on your computer. For example ‘Microsoft Windows OS’.

Example 1: My operating system is pretty old so I can’t run a lot of the new
