The second section provides 15 practice assessments, based on a variety of fiction and non-fiction texts, which become progressively more challenging. As well as allowing learners to demonstrate BGE reading skills, this section serves as a useful precursor to the style of assessment encountered later on at National levels.This book will help students to:- develop their close reading abilities- understand the distinction between key ideas and supporting details- analyse writers' language and style via a broad range of sample texts.
