| Summary |
The classic dictation is simple but highly effective: listen to a text being read and fill in the gaps in the same text in the book. Ideal for honing listening skills, this workbook incorporates the classic dictation plus its many favoured variations: mutual (students work together to complete the missing information), dictogloss (students write down the gist of what they hear), and prediction (students predict the missing information). The over 50 dictations are divided into the following themes, some controversial and others delightfully funny: Cultural Trends, Money and Work, Holidays and Special Events, Ethics, Language Facts and Fun, and Health Issues. Full dictation texts are included in the back and on audio CDs. |
