petroleum companies whose interests are linguistic, historical,
economic, political, or social. Each of the 22 units contains: (1) a
dialog or basic text built around a single topic of interest, (2) a
translation of the text into English, (3) new vocabulary occurring in
the text, (4) additional vocabulary related to the vocabulary in part
three, (5) new grammatical points in the text, (6) pronunciation
(included in the first 9 units only), and (7) practice drills. Unit 15
provides a review, and an Arabic-English glossary is appended
