This book is designed for intermediate and advanced students who would like to improve their writing and speaking abilities in English. There are units addressing cultural issues relating to Asia, Europe, and North America. There are three levels in each chapter. The first level involves a variety of information exchanges: Students discuss their values, background, families, social life and ideas. The second level provides either guided discussions. In the third level, students can move up to critical discussions. To avoid the usual monotony that comes with a similar format, this book offers four kinds of learning experiences: pair work, surveys, group reactions and debates. The cultural themes include: family, beauty, education, expertise, individualism, entertainment, obligation, sports, equality, power, dependence, and discipline.
