Every idiom has a definition and several example sentences. After every 10 idiom pairs there is a review section, which includes antonym exercises and sentence practice. There s also an example dialog with an MP3 downloadable audio file available online.
The Top 200 Personality Idioms can be passively read like an article on American pop culture or you can use the book and audio files to actively improve your reading, writing, listening and pronunciation.
