Longman Exam Skills Proficiency Reading Students´ Book

This coursebook is designed for learners who want to do more than merely survive the Cambridge Proficiency exam — it trains you to dissect texts with the precision of a dog gripping its favorite toy. The book focuses entirely on reading skills: complex articles, analytical tasks, deep-layer vocabulary, and strategies that help you uncover the author’s hidden intentions, hints, and traps.

The exercises develop both detail-spotting and big-picture understanding — essential at Proficiency level, where “I kind of get the idea” simply doesn’t cut it. At the same time, the book doesn’t assume you’re already Sherlock; it offers the tools to inch closer.
