Textbook

All the groups of Esercitazioni di Lingua Inglese 3 will use the following textbooks:

  • Unlock – Level 5 (Second Edition): Reading, Writing & Critical Thinking (https://www.cambridge.org/ki/cambridgeenglish/catalog/skills/unlock-2nd-edition/unlock-level-5-2nd-edition-reading-writing-and-critical-thinking-students-book-digital-pack?isbn=9781009031448&&format=DO )

The books can be ordered online or at local bookstores.

You will find a paper copy of both books at the LILEC library. However, due to obvious technical reasons, these copies do not include the digital resources or the listening tracks, which are valuable material.
