How is organised?
There are 60 units in the book. Each unit looks at a different point of pronunciation. Each unit has two pages. The page on the left has explanations and examples, and the page on the right has exercises. The 60 units are divided into three sections of 20 units each. Section A is about how to say and spell individual sounds. Section B is about joining sounds to make words and sentences. Section C is about pronunciation in conversation.
After the 60 units, there is a fourth section, Section D, which contains the following:•Introduction to phonemic symbols •Pronunciation test
•Guide for speakers of specific languages •Sound pairs
•Sentence stress phrasebook •
Glossary
At the end of the book there is a Key with answers.
With the book, there is also a set of four cassettes or CDs, one for each section of the book.
What order shall I do the units in?
It is better if you balance the work that you do from the three sections: first, do a unit from Section A, then a unit from Section B, then a unit from Section C, then another unit from Section A, and so on.
So, for example, you could begin like this:
Unit 1, then Unit 21, then Unit 41, then Unit 2, etc. At the end of each unit, you will find a note telling you where to go next.
If you have problems in hearing the difference between individual sounds in Section A of the book, you will be directed to one of the exercises in Section D4 Sound pairs .
