In Pasos 2, the second part of the two-stage Pasos course, the language skills learnt in Pasos 1 are consolidated and extended enabling learners to develop an ability to communicate confidently at a higher level. They will also gain an insight into the history, customs and everyday life of modern Spain and Latin America. The course encourages active and realistic use of the language over a wide range of topics and situations throughout its fourteen thematically-linked lessons. There is a wealth of up-to-date authentic reading and listening materials as well as speaking and writing tasks based on everyday situations in a Spanish and Latin American context. The tasks draw on learners' opinions, experience and knowledge of the world and are set against a background of more controlled presentation and practice of essential grammatical items. Each lesson is subdivided into stand-alone sections which provide an integrated task-based approach. As with Pasos 1, there are regular opportunities for revision, and vocabulary and grammar summaries are provided both at the end of each lesson and more fully at the end of the book.For the third edition, Preparate features have been added to prepare learners for new language and topics, grammar sections have been expanded, and lessons end with an Autoevaluacion feature. The book includes a two-way glossary. Used with the accompanying CDs and the Support Book containing answer key and recording transcripts, and supplemented by Pasos 2 Activity Book, the course is equally effective for the learner studying alone or in the classroom.
