505 _a"LEAP 2 - Reading and Writing (CEFR Level B1) is a task-based textbook for students preparing for college or university studies in English. It offers interesting, challenging and varied content with strong vocabulary work, emphasizing Academic Word List items, and solid text-based skills development, including academic skills and critical thinking. At the same time LEAP 2 is adapted for learners at a lower level of language proficiency, with vocabulary activities preceding each reading text, one grammar focus per chapter and more basic comprehension checks. Students apply critical-thinking skills as they engage in academic reading and writing tasks across a range of disciplines. Contemporary texts prepare students for college reading requirements, with activities that develop reading comprehension. With focuses on reading, writing, grammar and academic survival skills, LEAP 2 - Reading and Writing empowers students to thrive in their academic studies." (Publisher's Website)
