The newly revised World at Work 2 is an
invitation to students at the intermediate level
to think about their future working lives, as
they improve their integrated language skills.
This book and its companion volume, World at
Work 1 (Basic), feature interviews with people
from all walks of life. Have your students ever
considered becoming an advertising executive, a
journalist, a flight attendant, or perhaps even
an NGO worker? All these professions are
included along with many others.
Language Goals
The book develops language skills, offering a
rich range of authentic reading, writing,
listening, and discussion activities. Listening
passages for the texts are available via free
downloads, so learners can add them to their MP3
players for extensive listening practice.
Vocabulary is also presented and recycled
throughout the book, and an “Adjective Bank” in
the back helps students learn and use relevant
adjectives.
A Wealth of Material
Thirty individual lessons divided between 15
units make this book ideal for a full-year
course or provide a huge range of choice for a
one-semester course. Plenty of additional
activities allow the teacher to set
theme-related homework where needed. Transcripts
and answers in the back allow for easy checking
and also make the book suitable for self-study.
Use this book for:
- Listening classes
- Conversation or Speaking classes
- Discussion classes
- Research-based classes
- Improving communication skills for
job-hunting
