Designed for college students who are at a high-intermediate level of English proficiency, this book provides an effective introduction to different aspects of cross-cultural encounters. Using language suitable for both purpose and audience, this book explores various topics related to cross-cultural interaction, such as religions, festivals, family types, and dress codes.

The aim of this book is to equip students with the ability to deal with cross-cultural situations and help them develop an open-minded attitude towards people from different cultures.

Consisting of carefully arranged elements such as informative readings, real-life dialogues, in-depth discussions, engaging after-class activities, and colorful illustrations, this book is also a useful learning tool for those who would like to expand their English vocabulary, cultivate better reading skills, and enhance their listening comprehension.

There are 14 units in this book, with each unit divided into seven sections:
1.Think & Discuss
Each Think & Discuss section contains a picture and accompanying questions related to the topic of the unit. This section serves as a warm-up, building up students’ ability to comprehend visual scenarios and allowing them to share their thoughts with classmates.
2.Brainstorming
Each unit contains a number of brainstorming questions related to the article in Guided Reading, allowing students to reflect on ideas or issues that are presented in the article and form their own opinions before reading it.
3.Guided Reading
This section contains an article exploring the topic in a cross-cultural context, providing students with cross-cultural knowledge and fostering open-mindedness in them when they deal with cross-cultural issues. There is also an audio file that goes along with this section for students to enhance their listening competency.
4.Reading Comprehension
This section provides either reading comprehension questions or a True or False quiz to test students’ understanding of the article and open in-depth discussions on the ideas presented in the article.
5.Dialogue

A number of discussion questions follow each dialogue to test students’ comprehension of the dialogue and prompt them to discuss the real-life issues raised.
