Reading and Use of English part 3 Word formation As the name clearly indicates, this section of the Advanced exam is designed to test your lexical (vocabulary) skills. In this task there is a text with ten gaps (plus one example), then at the end of each line with a gap you will see a word in capital letters, e.g. USE. You must form a new word based on the word in capitals to fill the gap. So, from USE, you might form useful, usefully, usefulness, useless, user, usage, etc. You need to decide what kind of word (i.e. part of speech) goes in the gap: an adjective (e.g. strong), a verb (e.g. strengthen), a noun (e.g. strength) or an adverb (e.g. strongly). You must also spell each word correctly and write IN CAPITAL LETTERS to get the mark - US and UK spellings are both accepted. Candidates who have previously taken the Cambridge First should be able to recognise this part of the exam, and they should also know what kind of changes they are expected to make to get the mark. However, while knowledge of prefixes and suffixes is usually the norm at First level, at the Advanced level, candidates are sometimes tested on the formation of compound nouns (e.g. bulletproof) and compound adjectives (e.g. wellmannered). These increase in frequency and complexity by the moment candidates decide to take the Proficiency, in which less common words are included in the exams. Candidates should also be aware that words can have two prefixes (e.g. over-re-act) or two suffixes (e.g. weight-less-ness) at the same time, or even have up to three affixes (e.g. over-re-act-ion). However, these are quite infrequent in the test.

Identifying parts of speech 1. What part of speech is needed to complete each gap - an adjective, an adverb, a verb or a noun? How do you know? Suggest a word that could fill each gap. Sandilands is one of the most (1) ................ schools in the country. A few years ago, it hit the (2) ................ because of its appointment of a new and rather controversial head. Since then scarcely a month has gone by when it has not (3) ................ in the news for some (4) ................ or another. But if you visit the school there is every likelihood that you will be (5) ................ astonished by what you see.

2. Complete this table. The first row has been completed as an example. While training, candidates should get used to completing a table like this before any word formation exercise they wish to do. Not only will candidates learn about prefixes and suffixes, but they will also learn how to work out the meanings of words they don't know, which can be useful for the Reading and Listening Papers.

noun

verb

adjective

adverb

comparison

compare

comparative, (in)comparable

Understanding affixes Common prefixes •

in- (and its variations im- before words beginning with ‘m’ or ‘p’, il- before words beginning with ‘l’, and ir- before words beginning with ‘r’) can make a word negative, as in inappropriate, incapable, inaccuracy, inability and imperfect.

500 word formation exercises for Advanced

• • • •

•

mis- means wrongly or badly, e.g. misbehave and misuse. [use in the wrong way or for the wrong purpose] out- suggests being greater or better than something, e.g. outnumber [to be larger in number than another group] and outweigh. [be greater or more important than something else] re- has the meaning of ‘do again’ as in reconsider [think again about a decision or opinion], redevelop and rethink. [change what you think about something or what you plan to do] e- has the meaning of ‘electronic’ as in e-commerce [buying and selling goods online], e-reader [an electronic device for reading books] and e-cigarettes. [cigarettes that use water vapour rather than tobacco] eco- has the meaning of ‘good for the environment’, as in eco-friendly cleaning products, an eco-city [using energy efficiently and producing very little pollution] and an eco-warrior. [an informal word for someone who campaigns to protect the environment]

Preposition-based prefixes •

•

•

over- may indicate (a) an excess of something, (b) being above something, or (c) going across something. a) EXCESS That film was overrated in my view. [people said it was better than it really was] It was a bad restaurant, with an overpriced menu. [too high prices] b) ABOVE

Several of our neighbour’s large trees overhang our garden. [their branches go over our garden] Our garden is overshadowed by the block of flats next door. [the flats cast a shadow over our garden] She always felt overshadowed by her older, more successful, sister. [metaphorical use, felt less important than]

NEGATIVE

up- can suggest a change of some kind, often positive. The airline upgraded me to business class. [changed my ticket to a better class] There has been an upturn in the economy. [change for the better]

Productive suffixes Many suffixes (and prefixes too) are productive. [still used to create new words] You might feel adventurous enough to try coining some words of your own! [creating] The meaning of the example words below is clear from the meanings of the root and the suffix. • -able can be used productively, whereas -ible never is. It combines with verbs to form adjectives. Note that -able means ‘can be’: a washable jacket [one that can be washed] disposable nappies, predictable results avoidable problems a manageable situation. • -conscious combines with nouns to form compound adjectives that describe people who consider one aspect of their lives especially important: health-conscious person, class-conscious society, safetyconscious company, time-conscious workforce. • -free combines with nouns describing something undesirable to form compound adjectives to describe nouns without that undesirable aspect: stress-free life, tax-free shop, additive-free food. • -rich combines with nouns (often chemical or organic substances) to form compound adjectives to describe nouns with a lot of that substance: fibre-rich diet, calcium-rich foods. • -led combines with nouns and nationality adjectives to form compound adjectives describing things that are controlled or influenced by the original noun or nationality: community-led initiative, student-led protest, worker-led uprising. • -minded combines with adjectives or nouns to form new compound adjectives describing people with particular characters, opinions or attitudes: like-minded friends [with similar interests] career-minded young women, money-minded managers, high-minded [having high moral standards] • -proof combines with nouns to form compound adjectives describing things that can resist the damage or difficulty caused by that noun: ovenproof dish, waterproof jacket, soundproof room, idiot-proof Instructions. • -related combines with nouns to form compound adjectives to describe one thing as connected with another: stress-related absence from work, age-related illness. • -ridden combines with nouns to form compound adjectives describing people or things with a lot of that noun: guilt-ridden person, crime-ridden city, bedridden [a person who has to stay in bed because they are ill] • -worthy combines with nouns to form adjectives that describe people or things that merit whatever the original noun refers to: newsworthy incident [worth reporting in the news] praiseworthy action/pupil [deserving praise] It is important to mention that most of these compound words are occasionally used in the Advanced exam, so candidates should not focus too much on them.

3. Make new words from the words in CAPITALS at the end of each line to complete the

sentences. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

CONFUCIUS The Chinese philosopher Confucius lived in the 6th century BC. He is thought to have lived a rather (0) UNASSUMING life, working on farms and as a bookkeeper before becoming a teacher. His legacy is a collection of sayings contained in a book called the Analects. His teaching (1) _______________ centres around the individual cultivating their own virtue and personal (2) _______________. This is achieved through devotion to the family and learning rules of proper behaviour to (3) _______________ the individual (4) _______________. With all members of society striving to follow these rules, the (5) _______________ is that society as a whole will function better and be less inclined to stray toward excess. Confucius believed in (6) ________________ meritocracy, or the advancement of an individual based on their skills, with wealth or family connections being completely (7) _______________. The application of this belief can be seen in university entrance exams, in which a person's score is the (8) _______________ means for securing their entry.

ASSUME

IDEA STABLE STRONG ETHIC PRESUME BRACE REGARD DOMINATE

1. Read the text quickly without paying attention to the gaps to get a general idea of it. 2. With the help of a dictionary, fill a table with all the possible forms for each word on the right: noun IDEA, IDEOLOGY, IDEALISATION STABILITY, INSTABILITY STRENGTH

verb IDEALISE

adjective IDEAL, IDEALISED, IDEALISTIC STABLE, UNSTABLE, STRONG, STRENGTHENED ETHICAL, UNETHICAL

STABILISE, DESTABILISE STRENGTHEN

ETHIC, ETHICS PRESUMPTION EMBRACE, BRACE REGARDS

PRESUME BRACE, EMBRACE REGARD, DISREGARD

DOMINATION

DOMINATE

PRESUMED BRACING, EMBRACED DISREGARDED, REGARDED, REGARDING DOMINATED, DOMINANT, PREDOMINANT

adverb IDEALLY, IDEALISTICALLY

STRONGLY ETHICALLY, UNETHICALLY PRESUMABLY

DOMINANTLY, PREDOMINANTLY

3. Start by analysing every gap: what comes before and/or after to guess what part of speech you will need. a. In gap 1 we need another noun, as it is preceded by an adjective and is followed by a verb. So, Confucius’ teaching ‘something’ centres around… The only possible option is the ideology, as ‘idealisation’ is more of an abstract noun. b. In gap 2 we need again a noun, and from the two possibilities, the positive one (stability) fits better with the context. c. In gap 3 we need a verb, as it is preceded by the infinitive particle ‘to’. So, strengthen is the only option. d. In gap 4 we need an adverb, because it is describing the way an individual’s behaviour should be strengthened. From the two options, only the positive one (ethically) fits the context. e. In gap 5 we need a noun, as it is preceded by the article ‘the’. So, the only choice, presumption fits the gap.

5

500 word formation exercises for Advanced

f.

Gap 6 is a little tricky. In theory, we need a noun, as in “believe in something”, but the gap is followed by an object, which indicates that a verb must be used instead. The other option is embrace, however, as the verb is also the object of the preposition ‘in’, we must use a gerund. Thus, embracing becomes the answer. g. In gap 7 we need an adjective (be + adverb + adjective). So among the three options in the table, only disregarded carries the negative meaning necessary to explain how the “advancement of an individual based on their skills” is preferred over “wealth or family”. h. In gap 8 we need an adjective with an active meaning that can describe the noun ‘means’. So, either dominant or predominant can be used interchangeably with pretty much the same meaning. Dominated cannot be used as it has a passive meaning.
