"Listening" Second Edition is a fully updated and revised edition of the popular three-level listening series for adult and young adult learners of North American English. Each level offers students 16 engaging, task-based units, each built around a topic, function, or grammatical theme. Grounded in the theory that learners are more successful listeners when they activate their prior knowledge of a topic, the series gives students a frame of reference to make predictions about what they will hear. Through a careful balance of activities, students learn to listen for main ideas, to listen for details, and to listen and make inferences. "Active Listening", Second Edition, Level 1 is intended for high-beginning to low-intermediate students. It can be used as a main text for listening classes or as a component in speaking or integrated-skills classes. Features of the Teacher's Manual: Step-by-step teaching notes with key words highlighted; A wealth of optional speaking activities and listening strategies; Suggested times for completing lessons; Photocopiable unit quizzes; Two complete tests with audio CD; Complete answer keys.
