The first four pages of the unit help you build your language skills and knowledge. These pages include speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation activities. They are followed by a Target activity which will help you put together what you have learned.

;- e=.wm=».;».—.» *t=!Mtat4

The Explore section of the unit begins with a Keyword which looks at one of the most common and useful words in English. It also includes either an Across cultures or an Independent learning section, and then an Explore speaking or Explore writing task. The Explore section gives you extra language and skills work, all aiming to help you become a better communicator in English and a more effective learner.

The Look again section takes another look at the target language for the unit, helping you to review and extend your learning. Sometimes you will also find this recycling symbol with the goals, to show when a particular goal is not new but is recycling language that you have met before.

This symbol shows you when you can hear and practise the correct pronunciation of key language, using the audio CD. The e-Portfolio DVD-ROM contains useful reference material for all the units, as well as self-assessment to help you test your own learning, and Wordcards to help you test your vocabulary learning.
