Thematic materials gradually become more sophisticated and academically oriented throughout the series. •Grammar Briefings cover the structure of the English language as well as functions and meanings. •Talking the Talk boxes address pragmatic concerns about grammatical choices in written and spoken English such as levels of formality, slang, and metaphorical usage. •Grammar Hotspot boxes alert students to predictable grammar problems and explain how to avoid them. .
