Описание: Using a content-based approach, Academic Listening Encounters prepares high-intermediate ESL/EFL students for listening to lectures and taking notes in an English-speaking college or university environment. The content focus of the course is human behaviour, which includes such high-interest topics as stress and health, intelligence, and friendship. Each chapter explores one of these topics through a series of tasks, based on the listening, note-taking, and discussion skills such as: listening to directions; listening for details; summarizing; giving oral presentations; using symbols and abbreviations; using telegraphic language. In addition, the text presents cultural content about North America with a view to promoting discussion of cultural differences and universals. The Academic Listening Encounters Teacher's Manual provides the answers to all of the tasks in the book, as well as step-by-step suggestions for teaching the material. It also includes a complete tapescript for all of the material recorded on cassette and photocopiable quizzes for classroom use.
