Since there is a strong correlation between language components –vocabulary and grammar– and reading skill, a great deal of effort has been made to cover these two components based on the latest approaches and techniques.

This book also satisfies an urgent need for a ladder-like reading book which moves the learners ahead from the lower intermediate to upper intermediate level due to it graded passages in terms of readability. A wide range of topics, mostly scientific, are supposed to pave the way for developing the learners’ reading skills through content-based instruction as one of the most prestigious communicative approaches. The authors had the opportunity of teaching reading courses at different universities and institutes. Therefore, they got totally aware of the merits and demerits of similar materials available on the market. In the current book, the authors did their best to incorporate the best features of available reading books and include the requirements of the reading section of IELTS test.
