About this product

Product Information

Reading in a Second Language sets the testing and teaching of reading against a theoretical background, discussing research from both applied linguistics and cognitive psychology. Where possible, it focuses on research into second language readers and distinguishes different kinds of reading, particularly expeditious as opposed to careful reading, and emphasizes the validity of each.Sandy Urquhart and Cyril Weir relate testing and teaching, discussing similarities and differences, providing a comprehensive survey of both methods with the emphasis on those which have been substantiated or supported by research evidence. Finally, the book proposes specific research topics, and detailed advice on how to construct tests of language for academic purposes and suggestions for further research.

    Most impressed with the customer service for this purchase. The original purchase was lost in transit, and Ryefield Books quickly sent out a replacement in a box and tracked postage to ensure this didn't repeat. The audiobook is exactly as described, new and well-packaged to arrive in perfect condition. I chose Ryefield Books because their price was most competitive. The customer care was a very welcome bonus.

    A wonderful work from a remarkable writer – and an exceptional purchasing experience in its every aspect (accuracy of description, reasonableness of pricing, quality and condition of item, rigidity of packaging, rapidity of dispatch, ease of communication...) Thank you!

    Item arrived as a new item, wasn’t shrunk wrapped but seems okay. Quality was as expected for a new hardback edition. Great value as others were selling for same price but used ! Also appearance is good with the hardback cover. Seller was happy to help in regards to delivery delay and responded very quickly. Item arrived a few days later than expected but that is more to do with the delivery company than seller.
