b) Two key skills: listening and speaking

c) Three basic tenses: (simple) past, present and progressive

d) About 20 communication functions/topics: from telephoning to shopping and ordering foods.

2. Learning new things:

a) New functions and topics, such as comparing things, illness and symptoms, traveling, service at a hotel.
