Each book comes with a CD for practicing listening and learning correct pronunciation. The CDs are recorded by native American voice experts, reading out the "Slang Conversations" and "Vocabulary" for each chapter. Additionally, since the "Slang Close-Up" in the last four chapters of the book lists very common and practical slang, it is also included on the CD to provide greater benefit to readers. The book uses special icons to indicate the content read on the CD and lists the track numbers, making it very convenient for readers to search while listening.
