Notas para el profesor

Utiliza este test después de enseñar los conectores de contraste, causa, consecuencia y finalidad, o como prueba diagnóstica antes de una unidad de expresión escrita. Se centra en errores típicos del nivel B1: usar despite o because of delante de una oración completa, escribir 'despite of' o 'in spite the', unir dos oraciones con however como si fuera but, y usar 'so that to' o 'for + verbo' para expresar finalidad. Como actividad de ampliación, pide a los alumnos que reescriban frases de la Parte 2 con otro conector; por ejemplo, although se convierte en despite + sustantivo o forma en -ing.
