<br/><br/> Each of the twelve units is based on an authentic radio broadcast taken from National Public Radio's "All Things Considered" and "Morning Edition". By using material produced for native speakers, students are presented with unedited everyday speech, including hesitations, redundancies, and various dialectical patterns. Exercises develop essential listening strategies such as predicting, looking at language, understanding main ideas and points of view, and focusing on details.
