Readers’ Forum is a comprehensive four-book course that promises to make “real readers” of your students. But not only that. Along the way, learners progressively develop and master all of the essential language-learning skills. But there’s more. Each lesson in each book deals with a topic of major importance and interest. Readers’ Forum explores a wide range of current and historical issues and trends—ideas and concepts that the whole world is talking about. So rest assured: when they close the book on Readers’ Forum, your students—richly informed, linguistically confident, and socially aware—will be right in the middle of the global conversation.
READERS’ FORUM 3
Active English: Readings in the Liberal Arts and Humanities
Active English gives advanced students the opportunity to put to use all the reading, writing, and listening skills they have worked so hard to develop so far. The readings are long, the vocabulary challenging, and the sentence structures complex. The subjects the essays deal with are of interest to intellectually ambitious learners who aspire to “culture,” who find the liberal arts and humanities exciting and relevant—who aim for what the ancients called “the good life.”
Key Features and Functions:
＊12 800-word essays explore important current cultural and academic topics in a wide range of fields, including literature, theatre, linguistics, psychology, history, paleontology, evolution, art, and sociology
＊Extensive “expert” quotes from respected academic, literary, and media sources
＊Pre-reading activities promote critical thinking and fluent, active, critical reading
＊Innovative, stimulating reading-comprehension, vocabulary-building, and listening-comprehension exercises make for an all-round, in-depth learning experience
