505 _aVocabulary: A research-based vocabulary program focuses on the words you need to know academically and professionally. The vocabulary syllabus in Q: Skills for Success is correlated to the CEFR and linked to two word lists: the Oxford 5000 and the OPAL (Oxford Phrasal Academic Lexicon)
_tThe Oxford 5000 is an expanded core word list for advanced learners of English. As well as the Oxford 3000 core list, the Oxford 5000 includes an additional 2,000 words, guiding learners at B2-C1 level on the most useful, high-level words to learn.
_tThe OPAL is a collection of four word lists that provide an essential guide to the most important words and phrases to know for academic English. The word lists are based on the Oxford Corpus of Academic English and the British Academic Spoken English corpus. The OPAL includes both spoken and written academic English and both individual words and longer phrases. Academic Language tips in the Student Book give information about how words and phrases from the OPAL are used and offer help with features such as collocations and phrases.
505 _aExtensive Reading is a program of reading for pleasure at a level that matches your language ability. There are many benefits to Extensive Reading:
_tIt helps you to become a better reader in general; it helps to increase your reading speed; it can improve your reading comprehension; it increases your vocabulary range; it can help you improve your grammar and writing skills; it's great for motivation to read something that is interesting for its own sake.
