Kompetenzerweiterung II (Monday/Wednesday Group), Homework for June 8th

In advance of our June 8th session, please have reviewed vocab units 2 and 4 and grammar units 11 and 13. Bring any questions regarding any of the vocab or grammar content as well as any of the accompanying exercises. For extra practice, it would be a good idea to complete reviews 1, 3, 6 and 7, if you haven't done so already. 

Here are some additional exercises for specific exam practice:

Your optional essay can be written in response to ONE of the two following prompts:

1. Is necessity truly the mother of all invention?

2. Is change good, more often than not?

Please DO NOT include the words/sentiment "well, it depends" in response to the questions above. Use the tools we have discussed in class to address the question directly by situating it in a specific content about which you can write with authority. This essay is due in June 8th's class, either in hand-written or printed-out form.
