Basic Tactics for Listening Third Edition PDF,MP3 download
Tactics for Listening Third Edition is a three-level series of listening textbooks for English learners, comprehensively revised and expanded to provide more listening input and a new focus on developing test-taking skills. The three Tactics for Listening levels—Basic, Developing, and Expanding—comprise a comprehensive course in listening skills.
Basic Tactics for Listening
Basic Tactics for Listening is the first level of the Tactics for Listening series. It is intended for students who have studied English previously but need further practice in understanding simple conversational language. There are 24 units, four of which contain completely new content for the Third Edition. Basic Tactics for Listening can be used as the main text for a listening course, as a complementary text in a conversation course, or as the basis for structured student self-study.
Each unit features a topic that relates to everyday life such as family, shopping, or directions. The topics have been chosen for their frequency in conversation and their interest to learners. A wide variety of stimulating and useful activities is included to give students graded practice in listening.
Student Book
In the Basic Tactics for Listening Student Book, students practice listening for a variety of purposes and hear examples of different types of spoken English including casual conversations, instructions, directions, requests, descriptions, apologies, and suggestions. Essential listening skills are practiced throughout the text. These skills include listening for key words, details, and gist; listening and making inferences; listening for attitudes; listening to questions and responding; and recognizing and identifying information.
Each unit has five sections. The first section, Getting Ready, introduces the topic of the unit and presents key vocabulary for the unit listening tasks. The next three sections, Listening 1, Listening 2, and Listening 3 are linked to conversations or monologues on the audio program. The Listening sections provide task-based, graded listening practice. The final section, Conversation Corner, allows students to move from receptive to productive use of language through structured Pronunciation, Dictation, and Conversation practice. All of the Conversation Corner content is completely new for the Third Edition.
Tactics for Testing, an all-new review and extension section at the end of each Student Book, provides additional listening comprehension practice through two-page lessons. These Tactics for Testing materials help students develop better test-taking skills while exposing them to formats from the listening sections of the TOEIC® test, the TOEFL® test, IELTS™, and other exams. A Testing Focus and Test-taking Skill for each lesson help students and teachers get the greatest benefit from Tactics for Testing.
A complete Vocabulary Index is also provided in the back of each Student Book.
Audio Program
The complete audio program for the Basic Tactics for Listening Student Book is available as a set of four Class Audio CDs.
New for the Third Edition, the audio tracks for the Listening 3, Pronunciation, and Dictation activities in each unit as well as audio for the Tactics for Testing section at the back of the book are also available to students and teachers for download at www.oup.com/elt/tacticsforlistening3e.com, providing any time, anywhere listening practice and opportunities for self-study.

The Basic Tactics for Listening Teacher’s Book provides teaching notes, answer keys, optional activities, audio scripts, and photocopiable Vocabulary Worksheets for each unit.

Testing Program and Resource CD-ROM
