Week 8 Study Sheet, Homework

We missed Pete's presentation today!  I hope everything's OK with him.

We covered Focus points 5 and 6 in Grammar Dimensions and we'll check homework exercises 10 (p293) and 12 (p295).

Here is the Study sheet.  It's a bit less than the handout that I gave you today, without the listening and about a third of the reading.
