The goal of presenting such texts is to indirectly help the students to be aware of and to accept such cultural and social differences so that they can grow their sense of being tolerant to others. The book is designed based on Kurikulum 2013. There are six units in this book which are arranged based on the competencies of Kurikulum 2013 and the level of difficulty of the language skills and components attached to each theme in each unit.

Each unit is equipped with two reading texts and an audio text that have suitable exercises to accompany the texts. Explanations about tenses and sentence structures are also provided with abundant examples for the students which are arranged based on their suitability to the theme of each unit and their level of difficulty.

The written and audio texts, as well as the exercises, provide opportunities for the students to enrich their knowledge and to develop all of their four language skills, that are reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Teachers can still explore the materials given in the book by offering self-developed activities to match their students’ proficiencies and learning situations.

The book also completes the discussions with reviews in every three units. The reviews are review of unit 1 – 3 and review of unit 4 – 6. There are several exercises that summarize the discussions of the three units. Therefore, the reviews can be used for assessing the students’ understandings on the language skills, language components, as well as the general knowledge.
