Features: This book is the second volume of the "Comprehensive Course." Below is a brief introduction to the four parts of each unit in the book:
Part I provides a recording closely related to the theme of each unit, requiring students to preview it before class. The students should listen to the recording before class, and the transcript is attached at the back of the book for reference. This activity aims to activate students' existing knowledge schemas, guide them into the topic, and prepare them for learning the text.
Part II consists of three parts: the main text, a glossary, and exercises. The annotations for the text use footnotes. The exercise section mainly includes the following aspects:
1. Text comprehension
2. Text structure
3. Language awareness cultivation
4. Language practice
Part III also consists of three parts: the supplementary text, a glossary, and exercises. The annotations for the text are also in the form of footnotes. Each unit's glossary lists 20 CET-4 words and phrases as reusable vocabulary for practice. The remaining new words and phrases should be looked up in the glossary at the back of the book. The exercises include multiple-choice questions related to the text content, translation of text sentences, and word fill-in. The answers to the exercises are also provided at the back of the book.
Part IV is an in-depth, comprehensive oral and written practice activity. It is conducted after students have studied the main and supplementary texts and completed a series of language exercises, assuming they have mastered the content and language expressions related to the topic. It mainly consists of two parts: group discussions and classroom writing. The latter is based on the former. In the appendix of the exercise answers at the back of the book, there is a sample essay for students to refer to.
