    4. 

  4.       representatives who require a command of spoken German. The general concept of this text has
    5. 

  5.       grown out of the plan of Spoken Language courses prepared under the auspices of the American
    6. 

  6.       Council of Learned Societies during World War II. But pattern drills and other exercises have
    7. 

  7.       been developed extensively at the Foreign Service Institute to provide a much fuller
    8. 

  8.       manipulation of forms and patterns, and a conscious attempt has been made to adapt situations
    9. 

  9.       and vocabulary to specific needs of the Foreign Service. And the course is intended to lay a
    10. 

  10.       solid foundation for comprehensive language skills, providing systematically for the
    11. 

  11.       development of reading proficiency based on oral- aural skills.</p><p>This text is the end-product of several years of work and has benefited from the labors of
    12. 

  12.       many members and former members of the FSI staff. In its present form it was prepared under
    13. 

  13.       the supervision of Or. Samuel A. Brown, who has had overall responsibility for the arrangement
    14. 

  14.       of situation&shy;al material and for the organization and presentation of structural features.
    15. 

  15.       Particular credit for the dialogs and much of the drill material goes to Mrs. Use Christoph.
    16. 

  16.       Mrs. Christoph has been assisted by Mrs. Maria-Luise Bissonnette, Mr Friedrich Lehmann, Mr.
    17. 

  17.       Gerhard Matzel, Mrs. Margarete Plischke and Mrs. Erika Quaid. A most valuable contribution was
    18. 

  18.       also made by Mrs. Quaid in preparing the major part of the typescript, assisted by Miss
    19. 

  19.       Genevi&egrave;ve Ducastel. The project has been a cooperative venture, however, and all members of
    20. 

  20.       the German staff have contributed freely the fruit of their classroom experience and the gifts
    21. 

  21.       of their imagination and insight.<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../Images/Fsi-GermanBasicCourse-Volume1-StudentText-4.png"></span></p><p>H. E.
