Features: Modern College English Listening is a supplementary listening textbook for the Modern College English series, edited by Professor Yang Limin of Beijing Foreign Studies University as the chief editor. The series consists of four volumes, edited by Professor Jin Li of Beijing Foreign Studies University, and is designed for first and second-year English majors in higher education institutions as well as other English learners with equivalent proficiency. This book is the second volume of the series, intended for first-year students in the second semester. It is divided into two parts. The first part is classroom listening (intensive listening), used in the classroom, with content and exercise design suitable for teachers to guide students in learning, accompanied by a (teacher's manual); the second part is independent listening (extensive listening), completed outside the classroom, with all exercises being open-ended questions, and the listening scripts are provided at the end of each lesson. Referencing the requirements of the teaching syllabus, the difficulty level is roughly synchronized with Modern College English Intensive Reading. One of the features of this book is the rich and diverse language materials selected, which are closely related to real life and focus on the practical application of language rather than simply pursuing vocabulary quantity. Another feature is that the content is organized by topics, with 15 units covering 14 different topics (including two units on News), arranged in order of increasing difficulty and gradually increasing speed. This arrangement aligns with the requirements of situational teaching methods and is well-suited for listening instruction.
