ENGL140 Reading Practice websites

 Here are some links for online reading practice:

The following 2 websites are probably the best. They are from the British Council and are targeted to specific levels. You can try the B2 level first, but if you think it's too easy, please move onto C1. Each reading has a vocabulary exercise called 'Preparation' and then 1 or 2 reading comprehension exercises called 'Task 1'/'Task 2'.

https://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/skills/reading/upper-intermediate-b2 (we may be using some of these in class)

https://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/skills/reading/advanced-c1 (we may be using some of these in class)

These 2 websites are adequate as well, but I would start with the British Council website first.
