Special features of The Listening File:

- Presents fifteen two-part interviews, recorded on an accompanying cassette, providing a variety of accents and speaking styles
- Provides tasks designed to improve a wide range of listening skills, especially listening for gist and listening for specific information
- Uses discussion activities to stimulate vocabulary and to encourage students' affective responses
- Contains a follow-up reading and writing section or design task at the end of each unit
- Includes teacher's notes, tapescripts, a key with suggested answers, and a 'Map of the Book' which gives information on each interview
