Salam Sister,

"Exploring The World Of English" by Saadat Ali Shah is a very good book for Preci & Composition,,
"High School English Grammar & Composition" by Wren & Martin is also helpful.

best luck,
with regards,
Muskan

Default Some Other Good Books!

HI

Some other good books for english are:

1. Improve Your English by J.S.Bright and B.R.Mullick
2. English Grammar by Martinet.

The second book is prescribed in the CSS syllabus too and it's a superb book, rather the most comprehensive book about English Grammar. It comes with 2 exercise books too.

The West Wind

If u are aking about holding passages appropriately in essays thn it is not a big deal. u just need to think before u start the passage. Always keep in mind theb asic idea and go with it by and by. Wind it up in th ned with proper words.

If u are asking for passage holding in qureries then it is also easy and u need to follow the same rule of thumb as i havem mentioned earlier.

Passage holding is an art and u can play ur pranks in this section if u have a smart mind to hold things together in a flow.

Regards
