Publisher's Synopsis
"Reading for the Environment" is a series of readers on environmental themes. It is graded in three levels following carefully devised vocabulary and structure guidelines.;Level 1 uses a vocabulary of up to 600 words; the language structures used are very simple and the sentences short. Level 2 uses a vocabulary of up to 900 words; though still firmly controlled, language structures are more varied than in Level 1. Level 3 uses a vocabulary of up to 1200 words; language structure is less tightly controlled than in Levels 1 and 2 so that more complex ideas can be discussed.;Each story is followed by language extension exercises and questions for discussion. There is also a glossary of difficult words at the back.
