Components for each title• Student’sBookwith Student’sCD• Teacher’sBook

• The Time to Talk / CEFR levels correspond as follows: Foundation/pre-CEFRlevelA1 Elementary/CEFRlevelA1 Pre-Intermediate/CEFRlevelA2 Intermediate/CEFRlevelB1 UpperIntermediate/CEFRlevelB2

Language focusThe Language focus sections outline the rules and uses of the target grammar.

As well as providing realistic examples of the target language, short comprehension exercises are also sometimes featured.

Understanding grammar helps to give students the confidence necessary for English communication.

Sounding naturalThe Sounding natural activities give learners the opportunity to improve their pronunciation skills through tasks that practise areas such as elision, weak forms, stress, rhythm and intonation.

PracticeThe Practice exercises are controlled activities that check students’ understanding of the target language and grammar.

HomeworkEach lesson has a short Homework activity at the back of the book for consolidation of the target language. Homework answers are also provided.

Language referenceThe Language reference section at the back of each book provides more examples of each grammar point for review.

Sample lesson from Time to Talk Red S (pre-intermediate level)

Time to talkThe Time to talk activities empower learners to say what they want.

Students prepare their own ideas, discuss these ideas in pairs and, finally, present the ideas to the whole class.

Learners are encouraged to express and to share their own opinions with each other.

As a result, students can develop their discussion and presentation skills.

Teachers can develop the conversations based on the interests and abilities of the class and the length of the lesson.

Practice 6 Put the verbs in brackets into the present simple or present continuous to complete the sentences below.

Language focus

We can use the present continuous to talk about what is happening around now.

be + ing form of the verb

These days, we’re selling between 200 and 300 doughnuts a day.

She’s studying hard for an exam.

I’m not smoking because I’m trying to get fit.

His business isn’t doing well.

Questions and short answers

What are you studying at school?

Who is he dating these days?

How is your team doing in the competition?

Is your business doing well? Yes, it is. / No, it isn’t.

Are you doing a lot of overtime? Yes, I am. / No, I’m not.

We don’t normally use verbs such as be, want, like, need and belong in the present continuous.

Verbs like this are called stative verbs.

You can find a list of common stative verbs on page 111.

X I’m disliking my boss. I dislike my boss.

X She isn’t wanting a birthday party. She doesn’t want a birthday party.

a She ‘s reading (read) a lot of books for her exam next week. She

really (want) to get a good result.

b I usually (leave) the office at five o’clock, but this week

we (be) really busy so I (work) late every night.

c My father already (speak) French and Japanese, and now

he (learn) German.

d My team usually (win) every match, but they

(not play) well this season.

e His birthday party (be) tomorrow and

he (look) forward to it very much.
