First, the book is organized in a different way. It has four separate parts that correspond to four important aspects of proficient reading, and therefore it is like four books in one.
; Teachers should assign work on all four parts of the book every week
; The four parts of More Reading Power are
; Part 1: Extensive Reading
; Part 2: Vocabulary Building
; Part 3: Comprehension Skills
; Part 4: Reading Fluency; The focus of More Reading Power is also different. While most books focus on content, this book directs students’ attention to their own reading processes. The aim is for the students to develop a strategic approach to reading at this early stage, so that they learn to view reading in English as a problem-solving activity rather than a translation exercise. This will enable them to acquire good reading habits and skills and will help them build confidence in their abilities. This way they will gain access more quickly to English-language material for study, work, or pleasure.
; For a successful outcome, teachers should follow the indications in the Teacher’s Guide for working with the book. It is especially important to have students work as much as possible in pairs or small groups. Talking about their work will help them formulate ideas and consolidate vocabulary learning
; More Reading Power 3 is intended for students at the intermediate level (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages Level B2). It is assumed that students who use this book will have an English vocabulary of about 1,000 words
; In this third edition of More Reading Power 3, the approach remains the same as in the earlier editions, though in response to recent research as well as feedback from teachers, there is more emphasis on vocabulary learning. All the units have been updated, and more guidance has been added for students in learning the skills." (Book Cover)
