ii) Word-process each “listening” vocabulary on your electronic template as spelled out by Grace, the Chinese translator.

iii) In your own words, word-process three sentences using each of the “listening” vocabulary contextually. As always, do not use a dictionary. Write the first sentence, then directly below, re-write it again a second time using a different style but retaining the original meaning of the first sentence. Re-write the sentence for a third time using a different style but retaining the original meaning of the first sentence. Now you will have three sentences with a different grammatical structure, but all of them will have a similar meaning. The objective here is to expand your repertoire of writing styles. For example, if the “listening” vocabulary is “goal”, you will write three sentences using the word “goal”. See the sentence variations below:

My goal is to improve my English skills.

Improving my English skills is my goal.

To improve my English skills is my goal.
