Description:
The first text is an article taken from CBBCnews. There are two comprehension exercises (True/False statements and Find Synonyms in the text) and an exercise on passive voice. The second text is the story that inspired the naming of the Cutty Sark. It is followed by two vocabulary exercises (students practise guessing meaning from context). You can find a printable version of this OE here: http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=403239#thetop Have a nice day!
