About English Vocabulary in Use — Upper Intermediate

English Vocabulary in Use — Upper Intermediate is an original LifeWithBooks study guide designed for practical learners worldwide. Original LifeWithBooks guide — 100 two-page units of upper-intermediate vocabulary from Cambridge, with clear explanations on the left and immediate practice on the right. English Vocabulary in Use Upper-Intermediate is part of the bestselling vocabulary series from Cambridge University Press. It follows the proven two-page unit format: the left page presents and explains new vocabulary with definitions, examples and usage notes, while the right page provides exercises for immediate practice. This design makes it perfect for focused 20–30 minute study sessions. The book contains 100 units organized into thematic and linguistic groups. Early units cover word formation (prefixes, suffixes, compounding, conversion), collocations, phrasal verbs and idiomatic expressions. Later units tackle topic-based vocabulary for work and employment, education, science and technology, the environment, media and communication, travel, health, crime and the law, politics, feelings and relationships. Each unit teaches approximately 25–30 new vocabulary items in context, totalling around 3,000 words and expressions across the book.

Items are carefully selected based on frequency data and relevance to upper-intermediate learners preparing for exams like Cambridge FCE or IELTS. A complete answer key at the back allows independent learners to check their work immediately. A comprehensive word list and index makes it easy to find where any word is taught. The book works equally well as a classroom resource or a self-study reference, and many teachers assign individual units as targeted homework.
