I second your opinion for Exploring the World of English
but dear is there any trick for learning idioms and synonyms,or is it just a game of fluke..? as im not geting them merely by reading..
Don't cram idioms, learn the art of solving.. For idioms oxford idioms' dictionary is the best dictionary. In addition to this, you must consult net, solve not less than 3000 idioms, when you cross 500+ idioms. Then you will automatically will be familiar with idioms as they are just sayings and proverbs. Practice is the best way to grip idioms. Apart from that you need to make your own notes of your idioms. In this regard one thing should be noted that when you attempt an idiom make your own sentences. Because, if you cram bookish idioms, then you won't solve a lot of idioms. As it is my experience. Indeed, it is the best way as much as I have assumed so far.

For narration there is a book of Elmi. Practice that book. I am sure will be able to do all of the narration asked in exam.

For Correction, solve only past corrections. In this regard, Discovering the world of English is one of the best books. Don't follow Exploring the world of English. As it has become out dated as per my experience.
