�Avance!: Intermediate Spanish is an exciting new program for second-year students of Spanish: a single volume that distills the very best of the highly acclaimed Pasajes series: Lengua, Cultura, and Literatura. The result is a comprehensive yet manageable program that enriches students' language foundation in thematic vocabulary and grammatical structures, with a broad selection of literary and cultural readings. The overall goal of �Avance! is the development of functional, communicative language ability, accomplished through reinforcement, expansion, and synthesis, through material that is content-rich and interesting to today's students.
