I was looking for something like what should we know to give a good paper like narative writing, descriptive writing etc but I can't really find anything relating to that in the syllabus also I cant seem to understand this syllabus..
Can someone please help out? Put this in a easier way for me?

How many papers of english do we have to give ? P1, P2, P3? or just one??

I didn't really prepare anything for English.

You should just read books and improve your English. Then practice loads of past papers and stuff.

Well... I agree with what the others have said... it is really just a matter of reading novels, newspapers etc for enhancing your vocabulary + doing past papers for polishing your writing skills.
P.S. I haven't taken the English CIE exam yet... I have to appear for it in 2016.
