Das Buch enthalt einen Kurs fur Anfanger und fortgeschrittene Anfanger, wobei die Texte auf Deutsch und auf Italienisch nebeneinanderstehen. Die Motivation des Schulers wird durch lustige Alltagsgeschichten uber das Kennenlernen neuer Freunde, Studieren, die Arbeitssuche, das Arbeiten etc. aufrechterhalten. Die dabei verwendete Methode basiert auf der naturlichen menschlichen Gabe, sich Woerter zu merken, die immer wieder und systematisch im Text auftauchen. Satze werden stets aus den im vorherigen Kapitel erklarten Woertern gebildet. Das zweite und die folgenden Kapitel des Anfangerkurses haben nur jeweils etwa dreissig neue Woerter. Die Audiodateien sind auf www.lppbooks.com/Italian/FIRv1/ inklusive erhaltlich. Es ist auch empfehlenswert den VLC-Mediaplayer zu verwenden, die Software, die zur Steuerung der Wiedergabegeschwindigkeit aller Audioformate verwendet werden kann. Steuerung der Geschwindigkeit ist auch einfach und erfordert nur wenige Klicks oder Tastatureingaben. Lesen und Hoeren gleichzeitig! Ein bilinguales Buch fur das Sprachniveau A1 und A2 zu lesen, dauert fur gewoehnlich zwischen einem und drei Monaten. Die genaue Zeit hangt ganz von Ihrer vorherigen Fremdsprachen-Erfahrung und persoenlichen Fahigkeiten ab. Nach einem solchen Buch sollten Sie in der Lage sein, einfache Fragen zu stellen und zu beantworten: Was? Wer? Wo? Wann? Welche/r/s? Wie viel(e)? Mit der Grammatik sollten Sie nach ein oder zwei Wochen des Lesens beginnen. Ein Grammatik-Buch ist dazu sinnvoll und hilft Ihnen, Ihre Zielsprache prazise einzusetzen. Halten Sie sich an diese Reihenfolge: Kaufen Sie ein Lesebuch und nutzen Sie anschliessend das Grammatik-Buch und UEbungen, um den nachsten Schritt im Lernprozess zu gehen. So lernen Sie eine Sprache pragmatisch, effizient und viel schneller als mit kurzfristigen Lernprogrammen. Trotzdem sollten Sie Ihre Zielsprache regelmassig anwenden. Kombinieren Sie bilingualen Bucher mit Audio-Versionen, mit Grammatik-Buchern, Chats, Internetseiten oder sogar Lieder. So bleiben Sie motiviert und optimieren Ihren Lernprozess. Vergessen Sie nicht: 20 Minuten am Tag sind die Grundlage fur Ihren Erfolg!

Reading is the cognitive process of deriving meaning from written or printed text. It is a means of language acquisition, of communication, and of sharing information and ideas.

Other types of reading may not be text-based, such as music notation or pictograms. By analogy, in computer science, reading is acquiring of data from some sort of computer storage. This book presents the latest research in the field.
