Natural Environments + Audio CD

Our planet is full of natural wonders: the forests, which are home to millions of species; the oceans, which cover three quarters of its surface; and the Polar regions and deserts, which have adapted to extreme climatic conditions. They have existed for thousands of years, but these environments and the plants and animals which live in them are changing. Discover why they are changing and what you can do to help.

Reading & Training Discovery is a completely new series of factual readers. It is designed for teenagers, young adults and adults who, through reading about subjects of interest, can improve their English and broaden their knowledge at the same time. The series will cover a range of interesting subject matter, from famous people such as writers, explorers and scientists to places such as cities, countries and natural wonders.

These readers use Black Cat's expansive reading approach. The dossiers, activities and internet projects enable the reader to expand his/her knowledge and understanding beyond the information provided by the text.
The Discovery series is graded grammatically and lexically according to the levels in the Reading & Training series.
