How to use t his book


The text was sp«:ifi(ally wrilten to sui t a variety of (oursI' lengths and slyles. Two
possible approaches to using the material are suggested below:
Approach 1: Fixed courses
• for lixed courses 0140 to 4S hours in length. go through each ()'tIe. UniU t_1, UnilS
8-14. Units 15-21, and UniU 22- 28, in the order presented.
• For courses of less than]O hours. do Ihe units which focus on the listening test (U nits
1-4. UniU 8-11. UniU 15-18. Units 22-2S) and the units which focus on Re~ ing Part
1 of the test (Units 7, 14. 21. 28) in das~ and as$lgn Ihe units which deal with
Read ing Parts S and 6 of the test (Units 5-6, Units 12- 13. Units 19-20, Un its 26-27)
for homework.
• For courses of less than 20 hours, follow the procedure for courses of less than 30
hours. but do only section A (l anguage building) and section 8 (Mini-lest) of the
uni ts assigned for class work.
Approach 2: Short/Flexible courses
For a very short or flexible course of study or if you wish to practice only spe<:ifi< parts of
the test. it is recommended thaI teachen do alilhe relevant test parts in the first cycle of
units before moving on to the oext ()'tie. The reason for this is that the tactio.nd
language fOCU'i of the earl ier units lend to be more general and are applicable auoss
If'lot pans.
