Features: Each of the four books in this textbook series has a grammar focus point per lesson, along with communicative contexts where the grammar item is frequently used. This allows students to immediately apply newly learned grammar knowledge to language communication. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that students can start using English for communication from the first lesson. The four books contain a total of fifty lessons, covering almost all key points of English grammar, from the basic verb "to be" to the subjunctive in clauses after the verb "wish." These fifty grammar points are paired with fifty common communicative strategies, providing practice and application in various communicative contexts. This American English textbook for the Asia region has sold over 8 million copies.
It focuses on communicative dialogues, emphasizing the coordinated development of language knowledge and communicative skills, supplemented by comprehensive training in other skills. Fully revised, it incorporates new experiences of the internet era. A new "Gazette" section is added, providing up-to-date cultural information from around the world.
