Kompetenzerweiterung III, Preparing for the Exam

Make sure that you have sent me the question and topic domain you and your partner would like for your debates by the end of this week. The debates will take place in my office, Room 406. Please show up at least 10 minutes before your scheduled time and wait to be called in.

Some links that might help you for the essay writing portion of the exam:
Verbs that take the gerund or the infinitive: http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/verblist.htm
Verbs that take both the gerund and the infinitive and change meaning: http://www.skesl.com/grammar/course/verbs-followed-by-gerunds-infinitives-different-meaning
List of academic verbs: http://tweedediting.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Academic_Verbs.pdf

The exam will feature 3 short essays (each 150-200 words in length) and separate grammar sections on conditional transformation, inversion transformation, reported speech, and participle clauses. (Consult the study pack posted pre-Christmas for exercises.) Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. See you on exam day!
