Features: This is a comprehensive intermediate textbook written by a professor from the United States and an expert in English teaching for foreign students learning English. It is particularly suitable for Chinese students. Unlike traditional textbooks, this one is designed to address the weaknesses of Chinese students by emphasizing non-verbal instruction and speaking practice. It aims to help students achieve a balanced mastery of all six language skills: reading non-verbal signals, sending non-verbal signals, listening, speaking, reading, and writing, and throughout the book, it follows the principle of learning in a natural order. Each lesson provides a scenario photo along with a non-verbal content explanation, consisting of key phrases, dialogues, notes, alternative expressions, and third-person narration of dialogues.
