Converted, refined, and re-sliced both LLA tracks from the tape with the tester-round rules (passage->DIALOGUE+REFERENCE splits, vocab on the first teaching line, sentence-sized read-only cards, merged-beat detection with best-of-two sampling, repair loop hard-gated on figure coverage). Book 10 masters now include tape lessons 2C-4D — ten lessons of audio content the earlier masters never shipped (they used only 1A-2B). All ten masters lint clean, 100% cassette coverage on every taped lesson. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

$DIALOGUE Types of Signals
|
|
ID: 2b-f3
|
|
INTRO: Signals come from traffic lights, from a driver's hand out the window, and from the lights on the car itself. Look at each picture and listen to what it means.
|
|
INSTRUCTION: Listen to the descriptions.
|
|
|
|
LINE: Traffic signals tell drivers to move or to stop. A green light says "go," a yellow light says "be careful," a red light says "stop." This signal is also called a stoplight. {page_042_001.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-01.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: Traffic signals also tell drivers to turn or go straight ahead. {page_042_002.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-02.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: There are signals only for pedestrians. When the signal says "walk" or shows the picture of a man, look both ways and then cross the street quickly. When it says "don't walk" or shows the picture of a hand, wait on the corner until the light changes. {page_042_003.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-03.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: Sometimes drivers use hand signals. This signal tells other drivers that this car is going to slow down or stop. {page_042_004.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-04.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: This is the hand signal for a left turn. {page_042_005.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-05.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: This driver is going to turn right. {page_042_006.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-06.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: Some of the lights on the front and back of a car are also signals. When the yellow lights on the front and back of a car are flashing, its driver wants to turn or change lanes. {page_042_007.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-07.mp3}
|
|
|
|
LINE: Red lights on the back of the car come on when the car is slowing down or stopping. {page_042_008.jpg} {bk11-l2b-f3-08.mp3}

EXAMPLE
|
|
TEMPLATE: A fever can be a symptom of other problems. A fever with an earache can mean that the person needs to see a doctor and take stronger medicine. A fever with a cough, a runny nose, and body aches can be more than just a cold. A fever and a stomachache together can be really bad.
|
|
RESPONSE: Topic: fever. Main idea: A fever can mean that there are other problems.
|
|
|
|
TEMPLATE: When you have colds, don't give them to other people. Cover your nose when you sneeze, and cover your mouth when you cough. Take your medicine, and follow your doctor's advice. When you have a fever, or your cold gets worse, stay home and rest. You'll get well quicker, and your friends and family will be happier. They don't want to catch your cold.
|
|
RESPONSE: Topic: colds. Main idea: When you have a cold, you should rest and not give it to other people.
|
|
|
|
TEMPLATE: "Be careful of the driver in the car behind the car ahead of you." This sentence looks confusing, but it's one of the most important rules in safe driving. Other drivers aren't the only ones who might be careless; we might make a careless mistake on the highway, too. We should worry about other drivers, but we should also be sure that we're driving cautiously.
|
|
RESPONSE: Topic: safe driving. Main idea: We should worry about other drivers, but also be sure that we're driving cautiously.
|
|
|
|
TEMPLATE: Many things tell us what a speed limit sign should say. One of them is the number of people who use the street, road, or highway. Another is the places that those people are going to. Are they traveling to work or to their homes? Are they on vacation? The kind of street, road, or highway also decides the speed limit. A high speed limit isn't safe on a narrow, curved road with only two lanes. Because a wide, straight road with many lanes is safer, the speed limit on it can be higher.
|
|
RESPONSE: Topic: speed limits. Main idea: Many things tell us what a speed limit sign should say.
