As a support material intended to uphold Brazilian Portuguese native speakers in their endeavor to iron out their English communication skills, this book is designed to further develop students’ knowledge and understanding of the culture and the language of English-speaking communities, providing them with opportunities to gain a broader and deeper understanding of English and extend and refine their communication skills. The book focuses on the interrelationship of language and culture, and is intended to help nonnative English speakers develop those skills needed to function in an increasingly globalized society, a culturally and linguistically diverse community, and to provide them with the foundation for life-long language learning.

The present Volume 4 focuses on the learning of English as a foreign language. The book is mainly dedicated to the Brazilian learner, who has Portuguese as his mother tongue.
