Passages is a new two-level, multi-skills course that takes learners of English as a foreign language from the high-intermediate to the advanced level. Written in North American English, Passages is designed to follow the New Interchange series or any other beginning to intermediate course. Passages continues the popular Interchange approach to listening and speaking by integrating structural, functional, lexical, and thematic syllabuses and offering a communicative methodology that focuses on both fluency and accuracy.

The first part presents a comprehensive state of the art of a domain typologists have long been reluctant to deal with.
