Introduction
Welcome to
Ready for First,
a course which is
designed to help you prepare for the
Cambridge
English: First
examination, also known as
First
Certificate in English (FCE).
This book contains a wide range of activities aimed
at improving your English and developing the
language and skills which you will need to pass the
examination. As well as providing relevant practice
in reading, writing, listening and speaking, each unit
of
Ready for First
includes one or more Language
focus sections, which revise the main grammar
areas, together with Vocabulary slots which will help
you to increase your word store.
A significant feature of the Use of English syllabus
in the book is the systematic approach to Word
formation. At regular intervals you will find special
sections which focus on the most important aspects
of word building, ensuring that you are properly
prepared for this part of the examination. There are
also sections, in Units 7, 10 and 13, devoted to the
important skill of paraphrasing and recording new
vocabulary.
At the end of every unit there is a two-page Review
section, which enables you to revise and practise the
new language you have encountered in the unit.
Throughout the book you will find the following
boxes, which are designed to help you when
performing the different tasks:
What to expect in the exam:
these contain useful
information on what you should be prepared to see,
hear or do in a particular task in the examination.
How to go about it:
these give advice and guidelines
on how to deal with different task types and specific
questions.
Don’t forget!:
these provide a reminder of important
points to bear in mind when answering a particular
question.
Useful language:
these contain vocabulary and
structures which can be used when doing a specific
writing or speaking activity.
Further information and advice on each of the
papers in the
Cambridge English: First
exam is
included in the five supplementary ‘Ready for
…’
units. These are situated at regular intervals in
the book and can be used at appropriate moments
during the course. The Ready for Writing unit
contains model answers for each of the main task
types, together with advice, useful language and
further writing tasks for you to complete.
At the end of the book you will find detailed
explanations of the grammar areas seen in the units
in the Grammar reference, together with a topic-
based Wordlist and the Listening scripts.
Overview of the Examination
The
Cambridge English: First
examination consists of
four papers, as shown below. The Writing, Listening
and Speaking papers each carry 20% of the total
marks; the Reading and Use of English paper carries
40% (20% for the Reading tasks and 20% for the
Use of English tasks). A low mark in one paper
does not necessarily mean a candidate will fail the
examination; it is the overall mark which counts.
Reading and Use of English
1 hour 15 minutes
There are seven parts to this paper: Parts 1 to 4
are grammar and vocabulary tasks; Parts 5 to 7 are
reading tasks. For the Use of English tasks, each
correct answer in Parts 1 to 3 receives one mark;
each question in Part 4 carries up to two marks. For
the reading tasks, each correct answer in Parts 5 and
6 receives two marks, and there is one mark for each
question in Part 7. For more information on this
paper, see the Ready for Use of English unit on pages
42 to 45 and the Ready for Reading unit on pages
