KEY FEATURES:

1. Inferential exercises.

To get students interacting with new words right from the start, each chapter begins by asking students to infer the meaning of a word based on its use in two sentences. On the basis of their inferences, students then choose the best meaning from multiple-choice options.

2. Many reinforcement activities.

As with the other TP vocabulary books, each chapter gives students five opportunities to test their understanding of the new words--and unit tests at the end of every five chapters provide additional practice. Chapters 2 to 30 also repeat words from earlier chapters, allowing for more reinforcement than ever.

3. A new, highly enjoyable activity.

Each set of unit tests contains a fun-to-do crossword puzzle that reinforces mastery of the new words.

4. Ease of grading.

Answer spaces can be filled in either with a letter (so that a Scantron machine or answer key can be used) or with the word itself.

5. Helpful supplementary material.

Available with the text, upon adoption, are all of the usual TP vocabulary text supplements: an Instructor's Edition with answers to all activities and tests, a combined Instructor's Manual and Test Bank, and user-friendly software (Windows or Macintosh).

6. Outstanding price.

Like the three main books in the TP vocabulary series, Advanced Word Power sells for a net price of $9.40. At this modest price, the book can serve as an inexpensive supplement in a wide range of reading and writing courses. As with all the TP vocabulary books, the emphasis is on the highest possible quality at the lowest possible price.
