<small>How to Use This Book </small>

There are six books in the Target Listening series. The first two books are preparatory books which introduce new vocabulary words, vocabulary practice exercises, and practice tests. The four test books contain twelve listening tests with thirty questions each. The tests include question types and vocabulary words that were introduced in the preparatory books. Target Listening is designed for the intermediate to advance student.

Target Listening is a practical, engaging series that helps students improve overall communicative skills through listening tasks presented in natural conversational English. All activities incorporate focused, practical vocabulary words used in everyday situations. The vocabulary words are recycled throughout the series to reinforce learning. Real-life themes are presented through each unit exposing students to situations they encounter everyday outside of the classroom. Target Listening is beneficial in the classroom setting or in the home setting for students who need to prepare for English listening or speaking exams.
