505			_a"Engage students instantly with questions on personal, social and school life. In each unit a weighty problem is posed. Background information is given, and vocabulary necessary for the discussion is explained. One student takes the prime role of decision-maker, who must seek advice. Each of the other class members takes a specific part as an advice-giver: mother, father, girl or boyfriend, school advisor, work supervisor, addresses it in a way their particular role demands. They will speak improvisationally. How would mothers or fathers advise their children? What would a girlfriend counsel? What would a school advisor say? Following exercises consist of conversation practice and written work which reinforce new vocabulary and give plenty of opportunities to use real language in challenging real life dramas" (Book cover).
