On the basis of reading, the emphasis is further thrown on to oral skills, through discussion and telephoning, retelling and role-play, in pairs and groups. The final stage, writing, is practised through letters, telegrams, memos, messages, descriptions, composition and form-filling.
All the skills are practised through a variety of lively and realistic activities. An original feature of the book is the
Option Box in each unit, which gives the teacher or learner the choice of activities al several levels. British and American texts have been included to accustom the learner to both varieties of English.
