The new edition
Interchange Third Edition is a fully revised edition of New Interchange, the world's
most successful series for adult and young adult learners of English. Written in American
English, the course reflects the fact.lhat E nglish is the major language of international
communication and is not limited to any one country, region, or culture.
The course has been t horoughly revised to reflect the most recent approaches to language
teaching and lca'fl'ling. It remains the innovative series teachers and students have grown
to love, while incorporating suggestions from teachers and students all over the world.
This edition offers updated content in every unit, additional grammar practice, and more
opportunities to develop speaking and listc.ning skills.
viii
Speaking
Speaking skills are a central focus of Interchange Third Edition, with an emph asis on
natural, conversational language. The Discussion , Role Play, and Speaking e xercises, as
weiJ as the Interchange activities, provide speaking opportunities that systematically build
oral fluency. In addition, the Conversations illustrate different speaking strategies, such as
how to open and close conversations, ask follow-up questions, take t urns, and use filler
words (e.g., well, you know, so). Moreover, almost all other exercises offer fun, personalized
speaking practice and opporlWlities to share opinions.
Listening
The listening syllabus emphasizes task-based listening activities and incorpora tes both
top~down processing skills (e.g., making predictions) and bottom-up processing skills
(e.g., de<:odi.n g individual words). The Listening exercises for al1leve]s provide focus
questions or tasks that give students a purpose for listening, while graphic organ izers
s uch as charts provide note-taking support. Moreover, most Conversations in Levels 1
to 3 provide follow-up listening tasks (e.g., Listen to the rest of the conversation. What
happened?). Additional listen ing practice is provided in the Self-study section a t the
back of the Student's Book.
Reading
In the Reading exercises, students read a variety of text types (e.g., newspaper and
magazine articles, surveys, letters) for differen t purposes. For example, they skim the
texts for main ideas, scan them for specific information, or read them carefully for details.
Then they complete exercises that h elp develop reading str ategies and skills, s uch as
inferencing and guessing meaning from context. They also di scuss their opinions about
the readings.
Writing
Levels 1 to 3 include a \vriting syllabus. In the Writing ex ercises, students write a variety
of real-world text types (e.g., e-mail messages, postcards, memos). These exercises recycle
and review the themes, vocabulary, and grammar in the unit . Students typically look at
writing models before they begin writing. T hey use their experiences and ideas in their
writ ing, and then s h are their writing with their classmates.
Pronunciation
The pronunciation syllabus focuses on important features of spoken English, such as word
stress, intonation, a nd linked sounds. Every unit includes a Pronunciation exercise, the
approach being that students benefit most from practicing a little pronunciation on a
regular basis. In each unit, students typica lly notice and then practice a pronun ciation
feature linked to the new grammar or vocabulary.
CUSTOMIZATION
It's important for teachers W adapt the course materials to the needs, interests, a ges,
and learning styles of their students. The Teacher's Edition provides numerous additional
resources that help teachers tailor their classes for maximum learning and enjoyment . For
example, Games provide stimulating and fun ways to review or practice skills. In addition,
Fresh ideas provide stimulating and fun techniques for presenting and reviewing the
exercises. Moreover, there are Photocopiables for one exercise in every unit, or handouts
for innovative supplementary activities.
ASSESSMENT
Interchange Third Edition h as a complete a nd flexible assessment program. The
Progress checks in the Student's Book en courage students to self-assess their progress in
k ey s kill areas after every two units. Oral quizzes and Written quizzes in the Teacher's
Edition provide more formal assessment. [n addition, the Placement and El.:aluation
Package is an indjspensable tool for placing s tudents at the correct level a nd regularly
evaluating progress.
ix
Student's Book overview

freQuently asked Questions
SNAPSHOT
Q: How long should it take to present and teach the Snapshot?
A: You probably don't need to spend more than 15 minutes. Remember that it's just a
warm~up activity.
Q: Should I e xpect students to learn all the new words in the Snapshot?
A: It's not necessary for students to learn the passive vocabulacy in the Snapshots. However,
it's a good idea to encourage them to use the productive vocabulary. The productive
vocabulary is recycled throughout the unit and listed in the Language summaries at the
back of the Thache"'s Edition.
CONVERSATION
Q~ Is it OK to present the Grammar Focus before the Conversation?
A: Remember that the Conversation is placed first because it introduces the new grammar
in context. Also, it illustrates the meaning of the new grammar before the grammar
rules are presented. However, you can change the order for variety or if it's more
appropriate for your students' ]earning style.
Q : How helpful is it for students to memorize the Conversation?
A: Students generally benefit more from practicing and expanding on the Conversation
than from memorizing it.
PERSPECTIVES
Q: What are Perspectives?
A: Like Conversations, Perspectives introduce the new grammar in context. However,
they present the grammar in different ways, such as quotes, surveys, and television or
radio shows.
Q : Why aren't there any Perspectives in Levels Intro and 1?
A: The Perspectives typically contain ideas and opinions that serve as sta rting poin ts for
more advanced discussions and debates. Therefore, they are more appropriate for
higher levels.
GRAMMAR FOCUS
Q: Should I teach my students more grammar than that in the Grammar Focus box?
A: To avoid overloading students, it's preferable to teach only the grammar in the Grammar
Focus box. Then progress to the speaking activities, so that they can a pply the rules in
communication.
Q: What should I do if my students need more controlled grammar practice?
A: You can assign practice exercises in the Workbook , Lab Guide, Video Activity Book, or
CD-ROM for homework. The teaching notes in the Teacher's Edition suggest
appropriate assignments for each cycle.
Q: Should I explain the rules to my students or encourage them to guess the r ules?
A: Students have different learning styles, so you may want to use different techniques.
First, try to involve them in guessing the rules. If they can't guess th e ru les, th en you
can explain them.
xvi
WORD POWER
Q: How can I help students remember recently taught vocabula ry?
A: One way is to spend five minutes of each class reviewing new words. You can also try
d ifferent vocabulary review techniques from the Fresh ideas and Games in the
Thacher's Edition.
LISTENING
Q: What should I do if my s tudents have difficulty understanding the audio program?
A: You can ask students to ma ke predictions before you play the audio program. Then
play the audio program a few times, asking students to listen for something different
each time. Alternatively, divide the audio program into short sections (e.g., short
conversations). stopping the a udio program after each section.
Q: My students get ve ry nervous dur ing listening practice. Wh at's the solution?
A: One way is to assure students that they don't need to understand every word. Tell
them that they will hear the audio program again. Another option is to have students
work collaboratively in pairs or small groups.
SPEAKING ACTIVITIES
Q: My students often have problems understanding my instructions. What am I doing
wrong?
A: It is often more helpful to model the activity than to give instructions, especially at
lower levels. Model the activity with several students, preferably of different abil ities
a nd in different parts of the room.
Q: My students make a lot of errors during pair work and group work. \Vhat can I do?
A: Remember that errors are a n important part of learning. During fluency-building
activities, a llow students to practice speaking without interruption and make a list of
any errors you hear. Then have the class correct the most common errors at the end
of the activity.
READING
Q: How can I teach the Reading sections most effectively?
A: Encourage students to read silently and quickly. When they are skimming or scanning,
discourage them from reading aloud, following each sentence with a pencil, or looking
up each new word in a dictionary. Also, encourage t hem to use the d iscussion questions
to s hare ideas.
PROGRESS CHECKS
Q: The Progress checks are helpful, but I don't have enough time to use them. What can I do?
A: You can use the Progress checks in a variety of ways. For exa mple, you can assign
some of the exercises for homework. Alternatively~ you can assign students to complete
only the Self-assessment section for homework, and then choose exercises related to
tueas they need to improve.
FLEXIBILITY
Q ; The Student's Book doesn't have enough material for my classes. Wha t can I do?
A: Supplement the Student's Book exercises with Photocopia bles, Games, and Fres h ideas
from the Teacher's Edition or activities from the Web site.
Q: I don't have enough time to complete every exercise. How can 1 finish the m more
quickly?
A: Remember that you don1t have to complete every exercise in the Student's Book. You
can omit selected exercises, such as th e Writings, Readings, a nd Interchange activities.

Hi, Nina!
Guess what! I moved into my new apartment yesterday. I really like my
new roommates. I also like the neighborhood. There are lots of different
restaurants here. Last night, I ate at a Vietnamese restaurant just
around t he corner. The food was delicious. And I want to try a new
Brazilian restaurant near here. For breakfast this morning, I came to t his
great coffee shop across from my apartment Actually, it's an Internet
cafe, so I'm e-mai ling you now!
It's a rea lly convenient neighborhood. There's a laundromat on our
street and there are some interesting stores, too. One store sells lots of
amazing CDs, OVDs, and books from all over the world. And my
roommates told me there's a dance club just two blocks away. I wa nt to
go dancing every weekend!
Come visit !

Hi Stephan ie!
How have you been? What have you done in the past year? Sorry I haven't
written in a long t ime. It's been a crazy year.
I've been pretty busy. I was bored w ith my job, and my life was going
nowh ere. I had no real career and no boyfriend! I knew I needed to make
some changes.
First, I found a new job. I now work for a travel agency. I love it, but it 's a lot
more stressfu l th an my old job. I j ust got a raise, though.
Also, I told my friend Jackie t hat 1 wanted to go out, so last fa ll she and 1 went
out more. Then last December she arranged a date between Patrick and me.
Patrick is a student, and he hopes to graduate in the summer. Guess what ?
We're engaged now1 Surprised? Patrick and I plan to get married next year.
Then we hope to travel around Mexico for our honeymoon. We're very ha ppy!
Looking forward to hearing all your news.
