Practical Everyday English: Advanced Vocabulary, Phrasal Verbs, Idioms and Expressions Collins Steven.
You may feel, as an upper intermediate or advanced student, very frustrated at your recent lack of progress in English.Your grammar is good; you have taken and passed some of the important recognised written English exams but you still struggle to follow a conversation between native English speakers.You feel stupid and depressed that, despite years of studying English and even living in an English speaking country, you keep having to say, "Sorry, I don't understand. Can you repeat that please?"You pick up a newspaper and often only understand 50% of what you are reading, especially reported speech. Television and the cinema, without subtitles, present you with enormous difficulties... Or maybe you can understand nearly everything but feel you cannot express yourself in modern, idiomatic English.
