The texts cover a variety of topics related to everyday English usage, including idioms, grammar structures, and vocabulary. Many exercises test knowledge of these concepts.

Some common idioms found include 'hit the bricks', 'follow your nose', 'break the ice', and 'kill time'. These idioms are tested in exercises.

Grammar structures examined include articles (a/an/the), quantifiers (few/little/many/several/none), conditionals (if/unless), and discourse markers (anyway/after all/basically).
