Basic
Grammar in Use Reference and Practice for Students of English
Second Edition Raymond Murphy with William R. Smalzer
Designed for high-beginning to low-intermediate
students, this text focuses on the fundamental grammar structures
normally taught in basic or introductory courses. Teachers
using a main course book in lower-level classes may wish to
assign Basic Grammar in Use as a reference guide
so that students can look up grammar points that cause them
difficulty. The second edition of this book contains:
• New units and additional exercises
• A study guide (available only in the edition with
answers) that helps identify students’ areas of difficulty
• An Audio CD with recordings of example sentences so
students can hear the grammar structures they are learning
