The wife of a Scottish lord persuades him to murder the King for his crown with dire consequences. Shakespeare’s classic play has delighted readers and film fans for many years. This version of the story has been specially adapted for pupils studying English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL, ESOL, EFL, TOEFL, ELTS CEFR), ideal for those studying for Citizenship in English-speaking countries like USA and UK. The language and vocabulary are simple, and emphasis is on action using past, present and future simple tenses. Includes: 1. Broad questions about the text that can be used for discussion or writing short essays 2. More detailed questions about the text. 3. Questions about grammar. 4. Games you can play on your own or with a friend. Punctuation meets UK or USA ESL/CEFR/IELTS Level B2 in most cases, although there are some 19th Century features of the text which do not comply and have been left intact to preserve the charm of Shakespeare's text. The vocabulary in this book is slightly harder than for The Mysterious Affair at Styles and Frankenstein. You should try those books first if you are not familiar with words like the following: disdaining, undaunted, distillation, refrain, slaughtered.
