BCM Online Study
BCM made a online program for your self-study to review or prepare each unit of our coursebook. (Step2-Let's talk 2) You can do various activities or exercises which are based on vocabulary, reading, listening, speaking, and grammar.
You can do every exercise alone but the speaking one. You may do speaking exercise on the phone with your classmates or your friends who want to study English. And if you study the vocabulary part before you come to class, that would help you a lot to understand the unit. I hope that you find this helpful and useful for your English learning.

Dream Job (Unit 5)
Read the news article below and post your opinions on here.
$100,000 only for six months? That's a lot, isn't it? Would you like to apply to this job position? Why? or Why not? Would you like to be one of the lucky 11 finalists? Do you think this is the best job in the world? What do you think that the best job is in the world?
The world will soon know who will get the “best job in the world”. The position is for a caretaker to live on and look after a tropical island off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Duties include relaxing on the island, which is part of the Great Barrier Reef, and writing a blog to promote the area. Other responsibilities are to feed the fish, clean the pool and collect the mail. The job website, islandreefjob.com, tells applicants: “There are over 1,500 species of fish living in the Great Barrier Reef. Don’t worry. You won’t need to feed them all.” The successful applicant will get a salary of nearly US$100,000 for the six months. Officials from Queensland’s tourism department announced on Tuesday that they were now looking at 50 candidates. Unsurprisingly, over 35,000 people applied for the job.
The next stage in the selection process is to get the list of candidates down to 11. The tourism board will select ten people. Visitors to the website will choose an eleventh person. The public can look at the video applications of all 50 hopeful caretakers. The eleven lucky finalists will then fly to Hamilton Island for a formal interview. The winner will be announced on May 6, and the job starts on July 1. The current shortlist of 50 includes people from 22 countries. They include dancers, chefs, scientists and students and they all want a slice of paradise. Queensland Tourism Minister Desley Boyle said there was much discussion to narrow down the list to 50. He told reporters, “it boiled down to…the motivation and professionalism of the applicants and their 'fit' with the job and Tourism Queensland”.
