This book is for people learning Spanish who wants to improve their Spanish language skills. It is not for beginners. The concept is simple: a lot of bilingual texts (Spanish-English) to practice reading comprehension, plus exercises to translate single sentences from English into Spanish.
Everything is in Spanish and English, so the exercises are of use to readers of different levels of ability in Spanish. However, the book is aimed mainly at high school and college students of Spanish, those preparing for Spanish SATs, or anyone else who has already acquired a working knowledge of the language.
There are five units in the book, each one offering a mixture of single sentences and longer texts. Every example of Spanish is followed (usually on the next page) by a translation into English. Thus, readers can 'click' through as much material as they want, even if it's just a sentence of two at a time.
This is not a textbook and contains no grammar exercises! It is a supplementary resource to help learners improve their Spanish language skills. However, the texts themselves contain a wide variety of grammatical structures, tenses, and set expressions in Spanish. The vocabulary is also rich and varied. But don't worry if you don't understand everything--a full translation into English is just one click away!
A note on the translations: we have tried to provide good, straightforward translations of all material in this book. But remember that there are potentially many ways of translating any sentence.
Keywords: learn Spanish, improve Spanish, advanced Spanish skills, Spanish exam practice, college Spanish, bilingual language learning texts, Spanish-English translation, Spanish SATs and PSATs / NMSQTs or ACT tests
