STARDUST - ADVANCED COMPREHENSION WORKSHEET
This worksheet was created for my advanced students. It is a comprehension worksheet, a follow-up for the movie Stardust, but I integrated lots of grammar into it, so there are conditionals, reported speech, word formation, as well as synonyms, translation and writing and reading practice. I hope it�s useful.
