However, you do need to complete the TOEFL homework Part A Questions / Toefl Review Exercise 1-4 / Skill.5 / Toefl Review Exercise 1-5. This is pages 22-26 in the original book. If you have a different version of the book, you need to do the indicated exercises .

I hope you enjoyed the holiday.

See you Tuesday,
