Features: The Longman Shocking English series consists of five volumes. Each volume gathers approximately 30 interesting discussion topics, categorized into five major themes, covering various aspects of contemporary Western society. Each topic is open-ended and somewhat controversial, designed to help students understand the values reflected in the topics, clarify their own opinions, and engage in in-depth discussions. This aims to cultivate students' ability to think, express, communicate, and use grammar and phrases in English. Longman Shocking English Listening and Grammar completely abandons the traditional, dull grammar teaching methods, adopting a refreshing approach that uses listening as an entry point to overcome grammar challenges. Longman Shocking English Speaking Expression breaks new ground in oral communication, selecting authentic, high-frequency, practical words and expressions, which, once mastered, provide lifelong benefits. The entire series is divided into three levels—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—using a brand-new English listening and speaking teaching method. Vocabulary difficulty progresses step-by-step in a scientific arrangement, with listening as the key to overcoming language barriers, comprehensively improving students' listening and speaking skills and oral expression abilities. This book is part of the intermediate level.
