General comments: Tieng Anh 11 consists of 16 units based on a variety of themes. Unit 7 is about world population, a hot topic all over the world. Most of the activities in this unit were designed very well to help students improve their skills as well as broaden their knowledge and raise their awareness of the problem of population. But there are still some activities that are quite difficult for students to do such as Task 2, Listening (Listen and answer the questions) or some activities that just need mechanical response such as Exercise 2, Language Focus. However, in general, this is a good material for teaching if the teacher adapts some activities to make it more suitable for his/her students.
