This book is a good book for the study both of Thai student and who are choosing reading/writing classroom texts. It may be more appropriate for the university student than graduated student because some passages use simple word and not complex grammar structure.
However, this book is very old published (in 2002), it may be have some information not update and rarely not interesting much for graduated student.
Let's take one grammatical issue at a time, and let's start with subject-verb agreement.
If you have a singular subject, the verb also needs to be singular. Most of the time this means the verb needs to have -s at the end of it. If you have a plural subject, then the verb also needs to be plural. Here is an example from your paper:
"Also chapter 2 divide..." -- This should read Also, chapter 2 divides...
In addition, there are many places where it is not clear what the subject is or, in places, there is no subject at all.
"According to Brown and Hood’s “Academic Encounters: Life in Society” (2002), Intermediate to High Intermediate Level, includes unit 1: Belonging to a group, consists of chapter 1 and chapter 2."
In this, there is no subject for the verbs "includes" or "consists." Therefore, this is not a complete sentence.
Go through both this post and your other post and correct all errors in subject-verb agreement. Any of the first 4 or 5 sites in these search results will help you with this concept:

Task 3 – Unit Review (Summary and Critique)
According to Brown and Hood’s “Academic Encounters: Life in Society” (2002), Intermediate to High Intermediate Level, the book includes Unit 1: Belonging to a Group, which consists of Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. Chapter 1, titled "Marriage, Family, and the Home," is divided into four sub-topics: the family today, alternative lifestyles, how we learn to behave, and the importance of the social environment. Chapter 2 is also divided into four sub-topics and covers culture, peer group pressure, crowds, and panic. Both chapters follow the same structure, with steps such as "preparing to read" and "after reading." Additionally, each chapter includes a writing assignment at the end.
Chapter 1 provides interesting information about marriage, family, and home. It presents data in the form of charts, such as the percentage of married women in the workplace, the percentage of single parents, and the percentage of never-married women aged 18-44 who have children. These exercises not only practice readers' reading skills but also provide knowledge. At the end of the chapter, there are tasks that help readers review their understanding.
One particularly interesting passage in Chapter 2 is about panic. It provides readers with experiences of emergency situations like fires and other scenarios in various countries. This passage not only provides information but also equips readers with knowledge on how to handle unexpected situations in daily life. It is beneficial for readers to apply this knowledge in their own lives.
In the first unit, which consists of two chapters, there are guidelines or instructions provided before doing exercises. This includes the steps of preparing to read and after reading practice. These guidelines are very useful for readers to understand how to approach the passage and comprehend its content. There are also vocabulary and grammar reviews. Some passages include definitions of technical vocabulary on the same page, which is helpful for students and readers who may be unfamiliar with technical terms.
After reading the passages, there are tips on note-taking and summarizing. These help readers develop logical thinking skills and understand how to analyze the passages effectively. Some exercises even include cartoon pictures (on page 25) to make the reading and exercises more engaging.
This book is a good resource for Thai students and those choosing reading/writing classroom texts. It may be more suitable for university students rather than graduate students, as some passages use simple words and do not feature complex grammar structures.
However, since the book was published in 2002, it may contain outdated information and may be less interesting for graduate students.
