In this volume, leading syntacticians, semanticists, and philosophers examine the nature of these relations, where they come from, and how they apply.
An excellent approach to developing students' writing style is practicing sentence combining, which involves combining short, choppy sentences into longer, smoother, and more complex ones. There are two kinds of sentence-combining exercises in Sentence Combining Practice: signaled and unsignaled.

Answer keys are included.
