1 Introduction
Course aims
f
f
New Interlink is a six-level course specially designed for adults and young adults whose first language
is Portuguese.
The results of a special market research carried out by Cultura Inglesa indicated that Brazilian adult
learners usually look for a course that will provide them with linguistic skills in English to express
themselves orally, to understand what they hear, and to be able to operate comfortably in business and
social situations. They value a good range of vocabulary and aim at a level of comfortable intelligibility.
They also expect the process of learning English to take place quickly. New Interlink attempts to
meet these expectations by making use of principles and techniques that speed up the learning
process, focus on essential language for immediate communication, help learners to overcome their
psychological barriers and develop a sense of achievement.
Course structure
Each level of New Interlink consists of 24 complete lessons grouped into 4 sections. Each of the six
levels of New Interlink is a single volume which integrates Students and Activity Book. Each volume
provides 40 hours of core work, with additional materials in the Teachers Guide which can extend the
course to approximately 60 hours.
New Interlink takes students from beginner level (zero or false beginners) up to intermediate level
(Common European Framework Level B1, leading into B2).
Syllabus
The expectations of Brazilian adult learners towards the linguistic content and skills of an ideal course,
or what they call a comfortable level of English, can be interpreted as a level of linguistic competence
equivalent to the Common European Framework Levels B1-B2. The syllabus design in New Interlink was
then based on the Association of Language Testers in Europe (ALTE) Level 2 and Cambridge ESOL PET
examination syllabus and specifications. However, some adaptation was necessary to meet the needs
of the Brazilian market. Some elements were prioritised and others de-prioritised so as to respond
more accurately to the Brazilian adult learners profile in terms of their perceived needs, specific
linguistic difficulties and strengths, general knowledge and cultural background.
Lexis
From the Cambridge ESOL lexical syllabus, some topic areas were reduced or expanded
in New Interlink so as to match the needs and interests of Brazilian learners better. Areas
such as animals include slightly fewer items, whereas others such as technology and
telecommunications have been added to. Also, the fact that Brazilian Portuguese and English
share a lot of true cognates allowed the list of lexical items to include words that are usually
considered advanced for a Common European Framework Level B, but which would present no
difficulty for the Brazilian learner. A positive consequence of the inclusion of such words is the
unique opportunity it gives the learners to build up their lexical repertoire more quickly, which
is very much in tune with their expectations.
Grammar
Although no grammar areas present in the Cambridge ESOL syllabus were discarded, more
emphasis was put on some rather than on others, based on how difficult they might be for
the target learner to master. This difficulty depends on the degree of similarity or difference
between English and Brazilian Portuguese as to the form, concept and use of each particular
item. For example, Brazilian Portuguese has verb tenses which are basically the same as the
present and past continuous in English, sharing with them both form and concept in most
contexts. So these two English verb tenses could be dealt with more lightly and faster than
is usually done in international coursebooks, as Brazilian learners can grasp their concept
and form much more easily than, for instance, speakers of German or French. On the other
hand, it is usually quite hard for Brazilian learners to use there to be correctly, because
Brazilian Portuguese expresses this concept in a totally different way from English. Therefore
a differentiated approach was used when presenting and practising it, so as to provide the
learner with activities that were appropriate to the specific sort of difficulty they usually face.
Phonology
The list of phonological aspects to be dealt with in New Interlink contains only those segmental
and suprasegmental elements that are especially difficult for the Brazilian learner to
master, and that might affect their comfortable intelligibility. For example, Brazilian learners
tend to confuse the phonemes /r/ and /h/ in initial positions, so special emphasis is given to
the contrast between them. By the same token, there is no focus at all on the production or
contrast between the phonemes /b/ and /v/, as they do not represent a problem for Brazilian
Portuguese speakers.
Topics
The common cultural background shared by the prospective users of New Interlink learners
and teachers allowed the team of authors to select topics which are seen as relevant
for Brazilian adult and young adult learners and provide an ideal basis for presentation of
language and skills development. Work and study, family, entertainment, travelling are some
of the topics most Brazilians would want to talk about in English.
Course components
Students Book
The Students Book consists of 24 lessons divided into 4 sections (A, B, C and D). Lessons
are presented on a double-page spread covering different topics and presenting a range of
structures, vocabulary and pronunciation points that meet the specific needs and characteristics
of Brazilian learners. At the end of the book, students can find the following special sections
and materials:
f
an interactive word bank (Vocabulary Pack)
information-gap activities (Chat Pages)
a Revision Section containing a set of activities for each section of the book to be done
in class at teachers discretion
an Activity Book fully integrated with the Students Book
separate answer keys for the exercises in the Revision Sections and Activity Book
separate Language Reference Cards, to be used at any time in class or at home for
language support
f a CD for students use, with essential recorded audio texts and a ROM feature with
interactive activities
f
audioscripts of listening texts and a list of CD tracks
Activity Book
The Activity Book is fully integrated in the Students Book not a separate book. It provides an
opportunity for learners to consolidate and expand the language presented in the 24 lessons.
There is one set of Activity Book exercises for each lesson. Most of these are practice exercises
designed for homework use, but some may also be done in class, as further consolidation
practice (see Link Exercise below).
The Activity Book also includes a list of core words and expressions in each lesson, as well as
preparation for writing activities and self-evaluation exercises (see Writing Helpdesk and Stop
& Check below).
New Interlink 1, 2, 3 and 4 Activity Books also offer study tips to help learners develop learning
and studying strategies.
New Interlink 5 and 6 Activity Books also include exam practice tips and exercises for the
Cambridge ESOL Preliminary English Test (PET).
Teachers Classroom CDs and Students CD-ROM

New Interlink provide different audio CDs for the teacher and for the students. The two Teachers
Classroom CDs include all the recorded listening material available for the book.
The Students CD-ROM includes the main recordings that can be used by learners at home, in a
car or on a personal stereo or computer for extra listening practice for both the Students Book
and the Activity Book. The audioscripts at the end of the book offer extra support for this selfstudy. The Students CD-ROM also features interactive activities.
Teachers Guide
The Teachers Guide provides detailed plans for all the lessons in the Students Book, tips and
ideas on classroom management, language features, cultural notes as well as suggestions
and materials for extra activities. It also includes full answer keys and a Resources Pack with
printed photocopiable materials to be used in the classroom. The pack comprises pdf slides /
OHTs, information-gap cards, role-play cards and other materials.
Multimedia CD-ROM
A special component of the material, the Multimedia CD-ROMs are an optional resource
for teachers which can be used for language presentation and practice in the classroom. It
presents a number of short computer-based materials that integrate recorded texts (words,
expressions, sentences or dialogues) and images (drawings or photographs) often animated
and interactive. These activities provide the teacher with a tool to motivate the learners and
focus their attention, organise their learning and enhance their speaking opportunities in
the lesson. This technological device, when put to sound pedagogic use, creates memorable
moments in the classroom. It also meets the needs of a great number of learners who use
computers in their offices and homes on a regular basis, and would expect this type of
technology to have a role in the learning process.
The Multimedia CD-ROM also includes special materials designed for the interactive white board.
Because not all schools using New Interlink have access to classroom computers, nonmultimedia alternatives are suggested in the Teachers Guide. Integrated pdf slides / OHTs,
handouts, flashcards and recordings on CD among other possibilities can replace the
material designed for the computer in classrooms which do not have the technology.
9
Approach
The main pedagogical principles of New Interlink have their roots in the Communicative Approach to
Language Teaching and in the Lexical Approach. The methodology includes various techniques taken
from a range of teaching methods in a principled way.
Here are some of the main principles of New Interlink:
Language is a means of communication.

The majority of activities proposed in the material aim at promoting interaction with tasks
that involve negotiation and sharing of information among learners. The language provided
in New Interlink for communication was based on Lewis concept of probable rather than
possible English (Implementing the Lexical Approach, LTP, 1997:15). This means that the English
presented in New Interlink was chosen not only for its correctness, but mainly for its frequency
and appropriateness in real use. Some EFLese, however, could not be totally avoided as the
language of communication in class at very early stages.
Learning does not take place in a linear way.

A systematic process of recycling underlies New Interlink with a view to guaranteeing the
constant recurrence of certain language items and features. A whirlpool approach was
established for the materials helping learners to internalise the target language at a dynamic
and lively pace. Instead of massive repetition of language items in one go, which may increase
the learners level of anxiety and damage their self-confidence, New Interlink promotes
distributed recycling of vocabulary and grammatical structures.
The four skills need to be developed.

The development of oral and listening skills was prioritised in New Interlink as a direct response
to Brazilian learners wants and expectations. However, reading and writing skills are needs
which can be clearly related to the learners professional requirements. The four skills are dealt
with within the material in different proportions (Refer to Syllabus Rationale section above)
but they are all present and are developed in an integrated manner.
Learning is a cognitive process.

Learning becomes more effective when learners get intellectually involved in tasks which
stimulate both right and left hemispheres of the brain. The activities and tasks proposed in
New Interlink make use of learners previous experience and encourage them to speculate on
the language, to solve problems and to be creative.
Students should take an active part in learning.

Besides presenting tasks that keep learners busy and cognitively involved, New Interlink attempts
to develop students autonomy by providing study tips for learner training and a number of tools
for self-study such as the Activity Book, the CD-ROM and the New Interlink Routes.
The sound use of L1 is a powerful teaching/learning tool.

As speakers of Brazilian Portuguese, the team of authors of New Interlink are aware of the
language system features of the learners L1 which gives them the opportunity to make L1 an
ally to enhance learning. Therefore activities involving L1 and L2 comparison are to be found
in New Interlink. Although students and teachers are encouraged to use English as much as
possible, the use of L1 as a means of instruction occurs especially at earlier stages with a view
to offering learners affective support and enhancing their self-confidence.
10
Vocabulary is the major tool to carry meaning.

Since the authors of New Interlink were in the privileged situation of creating materials to be
used with groups of monolingual students, i.e. Brazilian Portuguese speakers, the materials
expose learners to a significant quantity of vocabulary which makes good use of true and false
cognates and favours the noticing and use of language in meaningful chunks most of the
time. This provides learners with language to go from the very beginning, which meets their
immediate need to communicate. However, the significant amount of vocabulary students
are exposed to in New Interlink does not mean that all language should be productive. New
Interlink pre-cycles a lot of vocabulary using lexis to provide more natural contexts but not
necessarily as language to be focused on or practised at that stage. This pre-cycled vocabulary
will appear later in the series as productive language.
Learners need to have motivation and develop a sense of achievement

from the very beginning.
In order to nurture strong and consistent motivation and a positive feeling towards the
process of learning, learners need to be exposed to challenging but comprehensible input
in a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere in which they feel at ease, confident and ready to
learn. New Interlink tries to build an anxiety-free environment and presents activities that are
useful to the learners, relevant to their needs and within their capability, which should ensure
motivation and foster a sense of achievement. New Interlink also provides consistent but not
exaggerated practice which allows adequate manipulation and rehearsal of the language
before it is used more freely.
Methodology
Presentation
In the New Interlink series, language is presented in context: in dialogues, in reading texts, in
combinations of reading and listening texts or by means of illustrations, charts or Multimedia
images. Contexts are as similar as possible to real life situations, showing to students the
authentic purposes for the language they are learning. Presentations also attempt to make use
of students knowledge of the world and previous knowledge of the foreign language. In the
case of adult learners, this usually means they can contribute a lot to language presentation,
which helps them develop their self-confidence. Comparisons to Portuguese also aid the
presentation of vocabulary and grammar, and pronunciation is viewed as an integral part of
any language presentation.
Practice
A lot of practice is provided in the New Interlink lessons. After being presented in context,
language is practised in activities ranging from totally controlled to totally free modes.
Students are given plenty of opportunity, individually, in pairs and in groups, to drill language,
to manipulate linguistic forms, to role-play real life situations and to express their own ideas.
Audio recordings, multimedia materials, charts, diagrams, gapped dialogues, matching and
completing exercises, memory games, card games are some of the means used to provide
students with a wide variety of practice activities in class. Oral and interactive activities are
prioritised in class since classtime is precious and should be optimised for communication. The
Activity Book offers extra opportunities for the recycling and consolidation of language, which
can be done on a self-access basis. Revision Sections also present practice activities to be used
in class or at home.
11
Personalisation
An important feature in the New Interlink lesson is personalisation, in which students have the
chance to use the language to refer to their own experiences, to express their own opinions,
to speak and write about themselves and to ask and answer real questions. This is naturally
highly motivating for the learning process, as it provides substantial evidence of students
competence. Personalisation can take place at any stage in a lesson.
Listening
Throughout the book learners are exposed to a range of listening text types and accents.
They are given practice in listening for gist, listening for specific information, predicting and
inferring. Listening texts are used to contextualise language, to aid language presentation,
to help reading comprehension by indicating effective chunking, to provide practice, to check
answers and to consolidate language.
Reading
Students are also presented with a variety of reading texts which contextualise and recycle
language. Different tasks develop learners ability to understand general meaning, to identify
specific information, to infer intended meaning and/or to guess the meaning of new words
from context.
Writing
Although New Interlink prioritises speaking as a productive skill, writing is present in all books
of the series, gradually ranging from simpler tasks in the first book to more complex texts
in the others. Each lesson Section ends with a main writing task that is totally integrated with
the topic and language of the Section. Preparation for writing activities are provided both in the
Students Book and in the Activity Book (see Writing Helpdesk below).
Recycling
The New Interlink methodology offers numerous opportunities for recycling of language
throughout the book, aiming at making this process of recycling more evident to students.
New Interlink special features
Students Book
Organizer
Lessons in New Interlink include an Organizer, where the new target language items are
signposted and systematized for the learner. The Organizer presents summarised explanations
with minimal use of metalanguage and include tasks to aid students in their discovery of
patterns in the language by helping them come to conclusions. The Organizer also serves as a
reference for practice activities in the lessons.
Interlink Box
Interlink boxes focus on areas of English which are frequent sources of confusion,
misunderstanding and error for an average Brazilian learner. They highlight common problems
12
Brazilians may face with particular language items being dealt with in the lesson, and function
as a reminder of which areas learners must pay special attention to.
Pronunciation Box
In New Interlink, pronunciation is considered essential to the understanding and production
of language. Word stress, sentence stress, the linking of consonants and vowels, strong and
weak forms in connected speech are highlighted from the very beginning in an attempt
to sensitise students to important features of the language. Colour codes such as pink for
stressed syllables in new words or yellow for connected speech are used systematically in
the book as an integral part of language presentation and practice, also giving students the
opportunity to learn and practise by themselves. The Students CD-ROM that accompanies
the book facilitates this task.
Tip Box
New Interlink lessons include several tips about relevant and interesting aspects of the English
language which may facilitate the learning process. Tips may refer to spelling, British and
American varieties, special plurals, special pronunciation features, to name but a few.
Recycling Box
This features in New Interlink 2 to 6. It is designed to help the teacher elicit / revise previously
taught language, either as part of the grammar focus of the lesson or as preparation for a
communicative activity.
Weblink
The Internet is an excellent source for authentic texts, where students can develop reading
skills, expand vocabulary and develop learner autonomy. In New Interlink some lessons
recommend sites related to the topic of the lesson. Teachers should encourage the students to
visit these websites and there are some suggested tasks given in the Teachers Guide.
Revision Section
For each lesson Section in the Students Book there is a set of revision activities to be found at
the end of the book. The Revision activities can be used at the teachers discretion in revision
lessons or as part of regular lessons, according to the needs of the learners. They include
listening activities, vocabulary and grammar exercises and speaking practice activities, often
using extra resources available in the Resources Pack. Revision Sections are mainly class
material, though a few exercises can be done at home.
English in Class
Classroom language is an important part of the linguistic content of a course as students are
able to see the immediate relevance of what they are learning and can use it authentically in
class, thus increasing their motivation. New Interlink 1 has special sections that focus on the
teaching of classroom language. Once presented, language should be constantly revised and
its use frequently encouraged by the teacher.
English at Work
Another feature of New Interlink which meets the needs of adult learners are extra activities
that focus on special needs of their professional life. The English at Work activities focus on
language required for the workplace and for talking about the work environment.
13
Activity Book
Link Exercise
This is an Activity Book exercise designed in such a way that it can be integrated in the
Students book as part of the lesson, if the teacher feels the need for extra consolidation of the
main item being taught. If it isnt used in the lesson, it can be assigned as homework with the
other Activity Book exercises. The Link Exercise is clearly signposted both in the Students Book
and in the Teachers Guide by the icon
.
Stop & Check

There is one Stop & Check in each Activity Book Section (A6, B6, C6 and D6). It is a set of testlike exercises to help learners self-evaluate and revise.
Writing Helpdesk
This is a set of activities in the Activity Book (A6, B6, C6 and D6) that helps the learners organize
ideas for the writing task suggested in the Students Book. It also helps them put together
the language items necessary to build up sentences and paragraphs more easily. The Writing
Helpdesk can be used at home by the learner on his or her own, or in class with coaching
by the teacher.

GW For each group of 4 sts you will need a dice, 4 counters and
a set of cards.
Tell sts to use one of the books in the groups as the board. Give
out the cards and tell sts to form 4 piles, according to the card
type, i.e., past, present, future and vocabulary. All players start
with their counter on the same segment of the circle marked
Start here.
Players take turns rolling the dice, and then move their counter
clockwise around the circle according to the number on the
dice. Players pick up a card from a pile, according to the segment
they land on. For past, present or future they must answer
the question and talk about it for at least 30 seconds. If its
vocabulary, they must give the correct answer.
If the group considers that the answer is satisfactory, the player
keeps the card. If he or she cant think of anything to say or only
gives a very short answer, the card goes back to the bottom of
the pile.
Keep the game going for about 10 minutes, then stop the sts.
The winner is the st with most cards.
TIP: After cutting out the cards for this game, we
recommend that you mark on the back: PAST, PRESENT,
FUTURE or VOCAB, or use colour code to make it easier to
sort them out into their different piles.

Your rst week at work:

SUCCESS IN THREE STEPS
So, youve nally made it to your new workplace!
Your rst week can be really stressful if you dont
know what to expect.
Do you want to get off on the right foot?
So, take a look at these three steps and be ready
to shine!
STEP 1
It may seem too obvious, but its important to
remember some rules at the workplace.
For example, you should be polite and friendly
to everyone you meet, from the doorman to your
colleagues or your new boss.
Also, you must show up on time, but you
shouldnt arrive too early or your new workmates
can have the wrong impression of you. You must
also wear appropriate clothes according to the
rules set by the company.
3 In pairs, discuss the sentences in #2.

Which ones do you agree or disagree with? Why?
A I agree with sentence no.1. I think you should...

B I think so too. / I dont agree. I think you must...
4 Work in pairs.
Student A g Imagine you are a newcomer at
Student Bs company.
Student B g Tell Student A about the rules and codes

at your workplace. Mention:
f
f
f
f
STEP 2
Although in most cases its ne to bring your

experience from your previous jobs, you mustnt
think it will always be useful for this new context;
so you must avoid saying things like: We did
it differently in the other company. You should
take the opportunity to observe how the system
of the company works.
STEP 3
dress code
working hours
lunch time hours
using the phone and internet

for personal reasons
dating workmates
(any other particular rule or code)
A In our company employees can / must /

mustnt / dont have to / should (nt)...
B Can I? / Should I? / Do I have to?
Gossip is everywhere. You can read it on the

internet, you can hear it from your friends and
family over lunch time but one place you must
avoid gossip is the ofce because it can be
dangerous to everybody because it can destroy
a healthy ofce environment. But of course you
dont have to isolate yourself and refuse all your
workmates invitations for lunch, for example!
