Traveling the World through Idioms » (1st Edition)

In Traveling through Idioms, students learned idioms as they "traveled" to ten well-known cities in the United States (Boston, Las Vegas, New Orleans, for example). In this textbook, students learn idioms while "traveling" to ten countries around the world: Brazil, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Israel, Mexico, South Africa, and Thailand. Each chapter explores exciting destinations, valued customs and religions, holidays, festivities, foods, and some language indigenous to each country. A variety of exercises teach collocations and critical thinking, among other skills, and require both pair and group work. The idioms presented will help prepare students for idioms covered on the TOEFL test.
