The Polish instructional materials in this volume are designed to accompany the "Reading Authentic Polish" workbooks. Their purpose is to familiarize students, in the classroom or through independent study, with spoken Polish in real-life situations. All materials were taken from Polish radio and television in 1991-92, a period of rapid change in and around Poland, and are examples of programs Polish people listen to and watch daily. The book consists of 20 units, 10 at each of 2 proficiency levels, advanced and advanced-plus. An introductory section discusses the listening process and describes some listening strategies emphasized in the materials. The subsequent units have these topics: announcements; art; economic changes; environment; health; media; the political world; science and technology; society in transition; and sports. The units are to be accompanied by audiocassette tapes (not included). Each unit contains a series of comprehension exercises geared to a specific tape sequence. The answer keys and lists of references and copyrights for the texts are appended. (MSE)
