Review 7A-9D

Review 7A-9D


Hello, everyone.
As mentioned in class and by mail, you should take advantage of our long break to do this review activity. 
You'll find all the answers in the Language Summary section at the back of your book, and the code in the top right-hand corner of each question tells you exactly where to look. V stands for vocabulary, G for grammar, and RV for real world. These are to be consulted in order to check your answers, not to provide them.
Remember to take written notes of any doubts you find in this review, and we'll try to clarify them in class.
