A Fondo: Temas de Portada comes to grips with the burning issues of the Spanish-speaking world today, and since we have been living in a global village for quite some time, the issues already have, and will continue to have, a familiar ring no matter where we live.
The topics dealt with, a fondo, are as follows:
- El Cambio Climático
- La Comida Orgánica
- La Vida Sana
- El Ecoturismo
- El Comercio Justo
- El Reciclaje
- La Inmigración
- El Terrorismo
Each topic is treated in a six-page section that does not exhaust analysis of the subject, but offers a thorough and informative overview for all AS/A-level students, drawing on material from a wide range of sources and distilling it into a potent learning resource.
Pages One-Four of the section cover cause and effect, current trends, future possibilities, advice and suggestions, according to the topic under the spotlight. Each page is divided into easily readable sound bites each of which has a vocabulary-strengthening synonym / antonym exercise. Page Five revises all the new vocabulary that appears in the previous four pages. Finally, Page Six gives the student the chance to practice both indicative and subjunctive tenses, with sentences that frequently expand on or summarize what has been expounded previously in the section.
A Fondo: Temas de Portada has been carefully crafted to present the front page news of today's world in a way that will appeal to the younger reader. Pick up a paper in any quiosco and you will find the eight topics in this resource take up eighty percent of the portada! A Fondo: your key to opening the door of examination success.
