In this paper, Hnglisb Book 1 of Sindh Textbook Board of Intermediate level was analysed in light of Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives. For this purpose, the exercise items, given at the end of each lesson, were selected and analysed in accordance with the domains: cognitive, affective, psychomotor, and their sublevels. A total of 172 items, directly linked to the content I text, were analysed. The study shows that a high number, that is, 170 items are related to the cognitive domain, whereas only 2 items fall in the affective domain. No exercise items fall under the psychomotor domain. The 170 items of cognitive domain were further analysed in light of 6 levels: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation. The analysis shows that more emphasis is given to the comprehension level, that is, 32 percent, whereas only two percent items fall under the evaluation category. It was also found that there is little relevance in the exercises with the learning objectives of Bloom's Taxonomy. Finally, a model lesson has been proposed, which makes exercises relevant to all the three domains.
