Now practise memorising the introduction by
completing the following exercises
Here are 3
distinct exercises designed to test students' memorization, vocabulary
retention, and understanding of the structural flow of these introductions.
Exercise 1: Cloze Test (Fill in the Blanks)
Nature: Vocabulary
and Phrasing Retention.
This exercise
tests the students' memory of the specific synonyms and idiomatic expressions
used across the different versions.
Instructions: Fill in the
missing words using the correct terms from your methodology sheet.
- (Step 1)
The text that we intend to study = to p___________ = to s___________
= examine is...
- (Step 3) It
was written in March 2026, so we might say it is a fairly t___________
issue.
- (Step 5) A
careful reading of the text reveals that it t___________ the issue
of gender equality.
- (Step 6) In
a second time, I will focus on the pros and cons that might d___________
from this issue.
- (Step 6)
Finally, I will e___________ to find some solutions to the problem.
- (Step 7) So
let’s do so without further a___________.
- (Step 7) So
let’s get c___________.
Exercise 2: Reordering and Version Matching
Nature: Structural
Flow and Consistency.
This exercise
tests whether students can recognize which steps belong together to maintain a
coherent, sophisticated "Version 2" or "Version 3" tone,
rather than mixing simple and advanced phrasing randomly.
Instructions: The following
sentences are mixed up.
- Reorder
the sentences (A to E) chronologically according to the 7-step
methodology.
- Identify
which "Version" (Version 1, 2, or 3) this specific introduction
mainly draws from.
- A.
First I will sum up the facts to prove my understanding of the text, then
I will draw your attention to the pros and cons of the issue.
- B.
The document given to us is entitled "The Rise of AI".
- C. It
first appeared on the website BBC News.
- D. So
let’s get cracking!
- E. It
was written in October 2025, so we might say it is a fairly topical
subject.
Exercise 3: The "Spot and Fix the
Blunder" Challenge
Nature: Error
Correction and False Friend Identification.
This exercise
targets common mistakes, literal translations from French, and structural
omissions based on the provided guide.
Instructions: Read the
student's introduction below. Find the 4 methodology errors (vocabulary
mistakes, forbidden translations, or structural logic errors) and correct them
using your lesson.
"The
document given to us is entitled 'Green Energy'. It comes from a website. It
was published in October the twelve, 2025. The text is about the
environment. To study this text, I will eventually find some solutions to the
problem, but first I will sum up the facts. So, let's start."
💡 Answer
Key for the Teacher
Exercise 1
- peruse / scrutinize
- topical
- tackles
- derive
- endeavour
(or endeavor)
- ado
- cracking
Exercise 2
- Correct Order: B
C
E
A
D - Version:
This closely follows Version 3 (uses "The document given to
us is entitled", "It first appeared", "draw
your attention to", and "get cracking").
Exercise 3
- The Date Preposition:
Should be "on October", not "in October" when
followed by a specific day.
- The Ordinal Number:
Should be "October the twelfth" (or 12th), not the
cardinal number "twelve".
- The False Friend / Structural
Issue (Step 6): The student used "eventually"
at the beginning of their plan. According to the method, eventually/finally
must come at the end of the plan, not before summarizing the facts.
- The Source Detail (Step 2):
While not strictly a grammatical error, the method emphasizes specifying
the website name (e.g., "... dot com") rather than just leaving
it as a vague "a website".
Here are 5
exercises of different types to test your students' memorization and mastery of
these introduction structures.
Exercise 1: Fill in the Blanks (Synonyms &
Vocabulary)
Objective: Test the
memorization of specific verbs and vocabulary terms used across the different
versions.
Instructions: Complete the
sentences using the correct words from your methodology sheet. The first letter
and meaning/synonym are provided in brackets.
- The text that we intend to
study = to p___________ [= read carefully] = to s___________
= examine is…
- It comes from a b___________
[= a serious newspaper].
- The document / it was
first published = i___________ [= made available/printed]...
- SO WE MIGHT SAY IT IS A
FAIRLY T___________ ISSUE [= d’actualité].
- A careful reading of the
text reveals that it t___________ [= addresses/deals with] the
issue of climate change.
- Finally, I will e___________
[= try/attempt] to find some solutions to the problem.
Exercise 2: Error Correction (Spot the Mistakes)
Objective: Test
precision in prepositions, grammar, and word choice.
Instructions: Each of the
following sentences contains one mistake based on the phrases provided
in the methodology. Find the mistake and correct it.
- The document given to us
is entitled of "The Future of AI". 2. It
was published at October the twenty-first, 2025.
- It dates back from June
2024.
- In a second time, I will
focus on the causes and consequences.
- So let’s do so without
furtherado.
Exercise 3: Structural Reordering (The 7 Steps)

memorization of the chronological order of a standard introduction.

Exercise 5: Real-World Application (The

Exercise 5 (Example of a correct response)
The text that
we intend to study is "The Reality of Gender Equality in 2025". It
was first published in The Guardian. It was first released on October the
twenty-third, 2025. Its author is a journalist named Sarah Jenkins. A careful
reading of the text reveals that it deals with gender equality. To study this
text, I will first give an account of the facts. In a second time, I will focus
on the causes and consequences that might derive from this issue. Finally, I
will endeavour to find some solutions to the problem to conclude with my
opinion. So let’s do so without further ado.
