Complete the gossip columnist's spicy article about a dramatic celebrity by choosing the correct options.
Whether the grand wedding happens depends entirely _________________________ the groom's mood today. He is currently married _________________________ his career, and frankly, he is far too _________________________ to handle any constructive criticism from his fiancée!

The correct answers are on, to, and sensitive.

Prepositions: In English, we say "depend on" and "married to". Many European languages use equivalents of "from," "of," or "with" for these phrases, making them tricky!

False Friend: "Sensitive" means easily upset or deeply perceptive. "Sensible" is a false friend for many EU learners (like French sensible or German sensibel); in English, "sensible" actually means practical or reasonable!

Preposition

A preposition is a small word that links a noun or noun phrase to other parts of the sentence — usually marking time, place, or relationship: in, on, at, to, from, with, over, under, between, during. The book on the table, We met at noon, She lives in Berlin.

Prepositions are deceptively small. Their meaning shifts dramatically by collocation (depend on, good at, afraid of), and their choice rarely translates directly between languages. Picking the right preposition is one of the trickiest, most idiomatic-sounding parts of English.

Vocabulary

The Vocabulary tag groups practice that focuses on words rather than grammar rules — common words, collocations, phrasal verbs, idioms, and the lexical patterns native speakers reach for instinctively. It cuts across grammar topics, offering targeted vocabulary work at every CEFR level from A1 to C2.

Grammar gets you the structure of English; vocabulary gets you the colour. Plenty of B1 grammar with A2 vocabulary still sounds simple; the right word at the right register is what shifts your English from "correct" to "natural".

B2 | Upper Intermediate

B2 is the upper-intermediate level in the CEFR framework, sitting between B1 and C1. At B2 you can read editorials, follow most TED talks without subtitles, and hold extended conversations on abstract topics — including topics outside your everyday life.

Grammatically, B2 means flexible control of mixed conditionals, passive voice across tenses, reported speech with proper backshifting, and participle clauses. B2 is the standard target for university entrance exams (IELTS 5.5–6.5, TOEFL 87–109) and most skilled-migration thresholds — knowing whether you're there shapes your study plan.

Difficulty: Medium

The Medium difficulty tag marks questions and challenges in the middle of the difficulty range — typically suitable for A2 to B1 learners. Expect a single rule with realistic distractors, longer sentences, and contexts where you have to think before answering rather than reading off the obvious choice.

Filter by Medium when you're past the absolute basics and ready to consolidate. It's the level where most lasting progress happens — easy enough that you can finish without exhausting concentration, hard enough that getting it right means you've actually understood.
