From the Publisher:

Students develop listening comprehension by practicing a variety of listening skills including predicting, drawing inferences, summarizing, and identifying phonological clues.
The first part of each chapter helps students to focus on significant stressed words and to recognize and reproduce reduced forms common in American English.
Listening tasks require that students reconstruct information from recorded material, guess information based on contextual clues, and perform practical tasks involving real-life material such as drawings, maps, and application forms.
Speaking activities such as role-plays, small-group activities, and class discussions complement the listening component.
The Audio program has been completely recorded and tapescripts appear in the back of the student text.
Chapters 7-12 feature new Focus on Testing boxes, designed to help students who are preparing for standardized tests such as the TOEFL.
