<p>BRAVO!, 4/e is a one-volume intermediate French text that integrates communication, grammar, culture and literature. It was created to respond to the challenge of students entering intermediate classes with different levels of preparedness. Each chapter of BRAVO! opens with La grammaire ? r?viser (grammar to review) to provide students with the opportunity to review certain grammar points that they have already been exposed to in first-year courses. Within the chapters, new grammatical items are covered in La grammaire ? apprendre. Chapters are organized around specific themes and functions representing some of the communicative uses to which language can be put. Chapters are subdivided into three function-based lessons, and each lesson contains culture, language, and process-writing instruction. At the end of each chapter, the section called synth?se pulls it all together with open-ended oral and written activities, video activities, Internet activities, and the final draft of students' writing assignment. BRAVO! provides students with many opportunities to engage in meaningful oral communication. Culture is central to BRAVO: it is presented in the Liens culturels reading sections, created with the idea to spark students' curiosity about cultural matters for French speakers and contemporary French society is like. The Interm?des culturels sections, located at the end of the chapters feature two reading passages: one related to "big C" culture topics, such as history, art, etc. while the second reading is literary in nature. Both have pre- and post-reading activities to help students develop successful reading strategies. The technology package for BRAVO! is complete: text-specific video, new and expanded web site, lab audio CDs, and a computerized testbank.</p>
