Select Readings Second Edition includes more reading than ever before. This new edition of the successful reading skills course features a brand new Elementary level, four new chapters in each book and 50% more reading content in every chapter. Each reading text is carefully selected to meet students’ needs, ensuring that the material is engaging, dynamic, topically relevant, and level appropriate.

Each chapter contains clear goals, focusing on developing a specific reading skill, such as scanning for details and identifying the main topic. The Building Vocabulary section focuses on word analysis skills such as learning word forms and understanding phrasal verbs. Words to Remember at the end of each chapter allow students to review key vocabulary.

Additional material includes the new Mini Oxford American Dictionary at the back of the book, to encourage understanding and develop vocabulary. Culture and language notes expand students’ knowledge of the world around them.

Digital resources including iTools, the Testing Program CD-ROM and downloadable audio files are great new features to supplement your teaching. Audio files for the main reading texts are available at the Audio Download Center. Try it out: www.oup.com/elt/selectreadings2e

The new Testing Program CD-ROM is the ideal way to prepare students for exams. The CD-ROM includes mid-term and final TOEFL®, TOEIC®, IELTS and GEPT style tests. These all come with a Student Book Answer Key, saving you time and effort.

Unit tests for every chapter test students’ comprehension, reading proficiency and vocabulary skills. These are easy to customize – each unit test is available in both PDF and Word format, so you can edit tests to suit your individual classroom.
