understand what is said to you in real life situations and make
sure everything you learn is useful. Twenty 4-page units with
exercises and vocabulary work to help you understand differences in
pronunciation and vocabulary Authentic recordings of both native
and non-native speakers of English, covering a wide variety of
accents from around the world Recordings include face-to-face
conversations, public announcements, telephone calls, bookings,
shopping scenarios and more Additional real vocabulary for everyday
life, taken from the COBUILD English corpus Collins Listening is
