  Ideas is a unique collection of absorbing and enjoyable activities designed to improve the listening and speaking abilities of students at upper-intermediate and more advanced levels. Students are stimulated to express their ideas in English by a wide range of photographs, advertisements, maps and drawing, together with varied and lively recordings. In the activities students solve problems, exchange infirmation, describe their experiences and participate in role-plays and discussions. Each activity encourages not merely language practice but genuine communication. The book provides preparation for Paper 4 and 5 of the Cambridge First Cerificate (1984) examination and includes many examples of the communication activies which are a new feature of the Interview paper. The Teacher's Book contains clear and helpful notes on the activities in each unit as well as vocabulary suggestions, answers (where appropriate) and transcripts of the simulated-authentic recordings.
