A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Give the two student pages and allow 25-30 minutes; retain both teacher pages.

  1. Ask learners to attend to restrictions such as only if and not every without explaining their implications during the test.
  2. When reviewing, distinguish an elegant-looking rewrite from one that actually preserves time, scope and prohibition.
  3. Invite a spoken paraphrase of a difficult item, then compare it with the answer note to locate any meaning change.

Support and extension

Do not infer C2 proficiency from mastery of these selected constructions. Use extended discourse and repeated evidence alongside the grammar results.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
