6 Each unit of this book is designed to help you achieve specific communicative GOALS . These goals are listed at the beginning of each unit. They are based on the language-learning goals stated in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). The first pages of each unit help you develop your language skills and knowledge. These pages include SPEAKING, LISTENING, READING, WRITING, GRAMMAR and VOCABULARY , with key language highlighted in blue. They are followed by a communicative speaking or writing task which will help you activate what you have learned. The Extras section of each unit begins with a Keyword, which looks at one of the most common and useful words in English. This is sometimes followed by an Across cultures or an Independent learning section. The Extras section is modular in nature and doesn’t have to be dealt with at the point where it occurs in the unit. The Explore section provides additional language and skills work, aiming to help you become a better communicator in English. In this section, you are also introduced to the task formats which you will encounter in the Standardisierte Reife- und Diplomprüfung. The unit concludes with a Self-assessment grid in which you are encouraged to measure your progress against the unit goals set out at the beginning. You can complete this grid either in class or at home. After every third unit, a Competence check section of four pages gives you the opportunity to revise the topics and language from the previous three units. At the back of the book, there is a Grammar reference with extra practice exercises, a Picture dictionary and a Vocabulary with English sample sentences and German translations. Go to www.oebv.at and type in the code for additional online materials. The Writing coach gives you information about text types and tips for writing good texts. The different text types are relevant for the Standardisierte Reife- und Diplomprüfung. Media tasks are tasks which train your digital competence. Business training are tasks which train business communication and competence. Certain exercises have been marked this way to indicate that they are more challenging and/or are an optional consolidation exercise. These exercises may go beyond A2+ level.

What was your old school like? Read the four short interviews with Austrian pupils for an English youth magazine. Did they like their old schools? How was your old school different to this one? My old school was in a small village, and it was only ten minutes from my home. I could easily get there in ten minutes. There weren’t many pupils, only about 100. It was a new type of secondary school. It was OK. This school’s ten times bigger than my old school and it’s a modern building. I go to school by train, which is terribly slow. It takes me an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon, but I still think my new school’s cool. And my classmates are cool too. (Felix, 15) What was your first school like? I was already eight years old when I came to Austria. First I went to a really modern primary school with laptops for every pupil. There were twenty-four pupils in my class, and our teacher was a young woman. She wasn’t very strict. School was boring. It was the same every day. We were at school from eight to half past twelve from Monday to Friday. In the afternoons I often had German lessons, but they were difficult. I wasn’t good at German and always wrote extremely slowly to get the endings of the words right. (Ayse, 15) What was your old school like? It was great! It was an old-fashioned secondary school, but with extra sports lessons. We were in the classroom in the morning, but in the afternoons we were always in the gym or on the football field. I like sports. We were allowed to warm up for 10 minutes at the beginning. Often we just ran around. While some of us were screaming at each other really loudly to let our frustration out, others were quietly walking around or chatting. Everything was allowed. My favourite sport is football – I was the goalkeeper for the school team. I was very happy at that school. (Martin, 14) What was your former school like? Well, I was at an academic secondary school for four years. The subjects were mostly interesting and on the whole I found school pretty easy and my marks were very good. But I’m a practical person, and so my parents and I looked for a school that also teaches you practical skills. I like the cooking lessons very much. They’ re fun! (Jessica, 14) Look at the short interviews and underline all adjectives you can find. Which adjectives were used to describe schools? Make a list and compare your lists in class.
