Today we’re going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages, none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner “types”–the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. At home, they like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to lean by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now, of course, it’s unusual for a person to be exclusively one “type” rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?Part II A3GCSE examinations students / higher educationstudent/ second year / high school / collegegeneral exam / School Certificatesitting University Entrance Examinationbachelor’s degree: 3/ 4 yearsmaster’s degree: another year or two doctorate: a further 3-7 yearsWell, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, and that’s usually for three years.Well, it depends on what state you’re in but most kids in the United States start school at about six when they go to elementary school and that goes from the first grade up to the sixth grade. Somekids go to a kindergarten the year before that. Then they go on to junior high school, that’s about eleven, and that’s the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. And then they go on to senior high school around age fourteen starting in the tenth grade and finishing in the twelfth grade usually. Some students will leave school at sixteen and they’ll start work, but most of them stay on to graduate from high school at age eighteen. In the first year at high school or college students are called “freshmen”, in the second they’re called “sophomores”, in the third year we call them “juniors”and in the fourth year they’re called “seniors”. Now a lot of high school graduates then go to college or university and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of them might go to junior college which is a two-year course.Well, in Australia, well most states anyway, children start their primary education at five after perhaps a brief time in kindergarten. They will stay at primary school until they’re about eleven, then they’ll either stay there or go to an intermediate school for a couple of years. Then they start high school usually twelve or thirteen, which you start in the third form. Now, after three years at high school you sit a general exam, some states call it School Certificate and that is a sort of general qualification and that if a sort of general qualification. After that you can leave school at sixteen or you can go on and sit your University Entrance Examination, which then gives you entrée into a university or it’s another useful qualification, and from then on you go to various sorts of higher education.Education in Canada is a provincial responsibility, but schools are administered by local school boards.Kindergarten is for children who are four or five years old. Children begin formal full-day schooling in Grade 1, when they are about six years old. They must stay in school at least until they are sixteen. However, most students continue to finish high school. Some go to college or university. Each year of schooling represents one grade. (The school year extends from the beginning of September to the end of June.) Elementary school includes kindergarten to about Grade 8. Secondary school (or high school) may start in Grade 8, 9, or 10 and it usually continues until Grade 12.In Canada, students may go to university or to a community college. If they want to learn skills for specific job, they attend college for one or four years to get a diploma or certificate. For example, lab technicians, child-care workers, and hotel managers go to college. Universities offer degree programs as well as training professions, such as law, medicine, and teaching.Universities offer three main levels of degrees. Students earn a bachelor’s degree after three or four years of study. A master’s degree can take another year or two. A doctorate may take a further three to seven years to complete.B1 Idioms / vocabulary / French / spelling / pronunciationB2 1. F 2. T 3. FI – Interviewer P – ProfessorI: And now we have an interview with Professor J. T. Lingo, Professor of Linguistics at ChimoUniversity, who is here to talk to us about the growing business of teaching English. Good morning, professor Lingo.P: Good morning.I: I understand that teaching English is becoming “big business” all around the world.P: It seems that language schools are springing up everywhere.I: Why is that?P: With the move toward a global economy, English has become the most widely used language in the world. It is the language of business, aviation, science and international affairs and people find that they must learn English to compete in those fields.I: And do people find English an easy language to learn?P: Well, every language has something about it that other people find difficult to learn. English is such a hodgepodge of different languages–it’s essentially Germanic but a lot of its vocabulary comes from French, and technical words stem from Latin and Greek. This feature makes English fairly adaptable – which is a good thing for a world language– but it causes irregularity in spelling and pronunciation.I: English spelling baffles me, too.P: English also has the largest vocabulary. Often there are words for the same thing, one is Anglo-Saxon and one from the French – like “buy” which is Anglo-Saxon and “purchase” which is from the French. The French word often has more prestige.I: Anglo-Saxon?P: That’s the word for Old English. The Norman Conquest in 1066 brought the French language to Britain and helped English evolve into the English it is today.I: Is there anything else particularly difficult about English?P: Well, the idioms in informal English pose a problem for some students.I: Informal English?P: As with any language, there are different varieties: slang, colloquial. Formal, written, as well as the different dialects – British, American and Canadian English.I: And how is Canadian English different from American and British?P: Canadian English is closer to American in pronunciation and idiom. Some of our words and our spellings do reflect British usage, however. We wouldn’t use the British term “lorry” for truck, but we have kept the “o-u-r” spellings in words such as “honour” and “colour”.I: This has been very interesting. I’m afraid we’re out of time. It has been a pleasure talking to you.PartIIIUniversity Life A1 I. Age / Foreign student population II. 15 hrs (+2 or 3 for lab) / Discussion group: 15-20 / much smaller / informal, friendly / 2-3 hrs: 1 hrToday I’d like to give you some idea about how life at an American university or college might be different from the way it is in your country. To be sure, the student body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First of all, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U.S. campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time. Many students live in dormitories on campus, some have their own apartments usually with other students, and others live at home. Some colleges and universities have a very diverse student population with many racial and ethnic minorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign student population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U.S. college or university campus. Now that you have some general idea of differences in the student population, I’d like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like.Let’s begin my talking about an average student entering his or her freshman year. Of course, such a person never really exists, but still it’s convenient to talk about an “average”student for ourpurposes. Foreign students are often surprised at how poorly prepared American students are when they enter a university. Actually, at very select schools the students are usually very well prepared, but at less selective schools, they may not be as well prepared as students in your country are. Schools in the States simply admit a lot more students than is usual in most other countries. Also, most young American university students have not traveled in other countries and are not very well-versed in international matters and do not know a lot about people from other countries. Foreign students usually find them friendly but not very well-informed about their countries or cultures.What kind of academic experiences will this so-called “average”student have? The average undergraduate student takes five classes a semester and is in class for 15 hours a week. If her or she takes a class that has a laboratory, this will require tow or three more hours. Many introductory undergraduate classes are given in large lectures of 100 or more students. However, many of these classes will have small discussion groups of 15 to 20 students that meet once a week. In these smaller groups, a teaching assistant will lead a discussion to help classify points in the lectures. Other kinds of classes – for example, language classes – will be much smaller so that students can practice language. In general, American professors are informal and friendly with their students, and, as much as possible, they expect and invite participation in the form of discussion. A large amount of reading and other work is often assigned to be done outside class, and students are expected to take full responsibility for completing these assignments and asking questions in class about those areas they don’t understand. As a rule of thumb, students spend two to three hours preparing for each hour they spend in class. American professors often encourage their students to visit them during office hours, especially if the students are having problems in the class.A2 II. Examinations / quizzesIII. Graduate school / Seminars / some area of interest / a research paperLet’s move on now to discuss student obligations in a typical American class. These obligations are usually set down in the course syllabus. A syllabus is generally handed out to students on the first or second class meeting. A good syllabus will give students a course outline that mentions all the topics to be covered in class. It will also contain all the assignments and the dates they should be completed by. An average university course of one semester might have three examinations or two examinations and a paper. The dates of the examinations and what the examinations will cover should be on the syllabus. If a paper id required, the date it is due should also be in the syllabus. The professor may also decide that he or she will be giving quizzes during the semester, either announced or unannounced. For students coming from a system where there is one examination in each subject at the end of the year, all this testing can be a little surprising at first. By the by, maybe this would be a good place for me to mention the issue of attendance. Another real difference in our system is out attendance policies. Perhaps you come from a system where attendance is optional. Generally speaking, American professors expect regular attendance and may even grade you down if you are absent a lot. All this information should be on your syllabus, along with the professor’s office number and office hours.I have only a couple of hours left, and I’d like to use them to talk about how graduate school is somewhat different from undergraduate school. Of course, it’s much more difficult to enter graduate school, and most students are highly qualified and high motivated. Students in graduate school are expected to do much more independent work than those in undergraduate schools, withregularly scheduled exams, etc. some classes will be conducted as seminars. In a seminar class, there may be no exams, but students are expected to read rather widely on topics and be prepared for thorough discussion of them in class. Another possibility in graduate classes is that in addition to readings done by all students, each student may also be expected to work independently in some area of interest and later make a presentation that summarizes what her or she has learned. Usually each student then goes on to write a paper on what he or she has researched to turn in to the professor for a grade.I hope that today’s lecture has given you some idea about student life on an American campus and that you have noticed some difference between our system and yours.B2 to make mistakes / every new thing / the language/ Working outside the classroomPassive / the teach / stick his neck out / more likely to be right than himselfHow would you describe a good student or a bad student, sort of things they do or don’t do in the classroom?He’s eager to experiment with every new thing that he learns, whether it be a structure of a function or a new word, he immediately starts trying to use it.He’s interested in the mistakes he makes, he’s not afraid to make them.He’s not simply interested in having it corrected and moving on?He plays with language.I’ve done this chapter I know this, without trying to experiment at all, without really testing himself.He’s usually passive, he won’t speak up much in the classroom. He’ll rarely ask you why this …Just sort of accepts what you give him and doesn’t do anything more with it.… and in a test he’s the one person who’s likely to suddenly realize that he wasn’t too sure about that after all.And peep over at his neighbor’s paper.An alternative learning strategy.He invariably decides that the other person is more likely to be right than himself. That’s the result of this sort of unwillingness to make mistakes and stick his neck out.That characterizes the good or bad learner?He’ll do more off his own bat as well, he won’t rely entirely on the teacher.He’ll work outside the classroom as well as in it.Students who make most progress are first of all those who experiment and secondly those who read books.Part IV University Campus A2. the History Department3. the Psychology Department4. the Library5. the Education Department6. the Philosophy Department7. the Geography Department8. the Sports Ground9. the Foreign Languages Department 10. the Chinese Department 11. the Physics Department 12. the Mathematics Department 13. the Chemistry Department 14. the Clinic 15. the Auditorium 16. the AdministrationBuildingLook at the map.

Today we’re going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages, none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner “types”–the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. At home, they like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words byhearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to lean by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mista kes. Now, of course, it’s unusual for a person to be exclusively one “type” rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?Part II A3GCSE examinations students / higher educationstudent/ second year / high school / college general exam / School Certificatesitting University Entrance Examination bachelor’s degree: 3/ 4 yearsmaster’s degree: another year or two doctorate: a further 3-7 yearsWell, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, andthat’s usually for three years.Well, it depends on what state yo u’re in but most kids in the United States start school at about six when they go to elementary school and that goes from the first grade up to the sixth grade. Somekids go to a kindergarten the year before that. Then they go on to junior high school, tha t’s about eleven, and that’s the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. And then they go on to senior high school around age fourteen starting in the tenth grade and finishing in the twelfth grade usually. Some students will leave school at sixteen and they’ll start work, but most of them stay on to graduate from high school at age eighteen. In the first year at high school or college students are called “freshmen”, in the second they’re called “sophomores”, in the third year we call them “juniors”and in the fourth year they’re called “seniors”. Now a lot of high school graduates then go to college or university and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of them might go to junior college which is a two-year course.Well, in Australia, well most states anyway, children start their primary education at five after perhaps a brief time in kindergarten. They will stay at primary school until they’re about eleven, then they’ll either stay there or go to an intermediate school for a couple of years. Then they start high school usually twelve or thirteen, which you start in the third form. Now, after three years at high school you sit a general exam, some states call it School Certificate and that is a sort of general qualification and that if a sort of general qualification. After that you can leave school at sixteen or you can go on and sit your University Entrance Examination, which then gives you entréeinto a university or it’s another useful qualification, and from then on you go to various sorts of higher education.Education in Canada is a provincial responsibility, but schools are administered by local school boards.Kindergarten is for children who are four or five years old. Children begin formal full-day schooling in Grade 1, when they are about six years old. They must stay in school at least until they are sixteen. However, most students continue to finish high school. Some go to college or university. Each year of schooling represents one grade. (The school year extends from the beginning of September to the end of June.) Elementary school includes kindergarten to about Grade 8. Secondary school (or high school) may start in Grade 8, 9, or 10 and it usually continues until Grade 12.In Canada, students may go to university or to a community college. If they want to learn skills for specific job, they attend college for one or four years to get a diploma or certificate. For example, lab technicians, child-care workers, and hotel managers go to college. Universities offer degree programs as well as training professions, such as law, medicine, and teaching.Universities offer three main levels of degrees. Students earn a bachelor’s degree after three or four years of study. A master’s degree can take another year or two. A doctorate may take a further three to seven years to complete.B1 Idioms / vocabulary / French / spelling / pronunciation B2 1. F 2. T 3. FI – Interviewer P – ProfessorI: And now we have an interview with Professor J. T. Lingo, Professor of Linguistics at Chimo University, who is here to talk to us about the growing business of teaching English. Goodmorning, professor Lingo.P: Good morning.I: I understand that teaching English is becoming “big business” all around the world.P: It seems that language schools are springing up everywhere.I: Why is that?P: With the move toward a global economy, English has become the most widely used language in the world. It is the language of business, aviation, science and international affairs and people find that they must learn English to compete in those fields.I: And do people find English an easy language to learn?P: Well, every language has something about it that other people find difficult to learn. English is such a hodgepodge of different languages –it’s essentially Germanic but a lot of it s vocabulary comes from French, and technical words stem from Latin and Greek. This feature makes English fairly adaptable –which is a good thing for a world language –but it causes irregularity in spelling and pronunciation.I: English spelling baffles me, too.P: English also has the largest vocabulary. Often there are words for the same thing, one is Anglo-Saxon and one from the French –like “buy” which is Anglo-Saxon and “purchase” which is from the French. The French word often has more prestige.I: Anglo-Saxon?P: That’s the word for Old English. The Norman Conquest in 1066 brought the French language to Britain and helped English evolve into the English it is today.I: Is there anything else particularly difficult about English?P: Well, the idioms in informal English pose a problem for some students.I: Informal English?P: As with any language, there are different varieties: slang, colloquial. Formal, written, as well as the different dialects –British, American and Canadian English.I: And how is Canadian English different from American and British?P: Canadian English is closer to American in pronunciation and idiom. Some of our words and our spellings do reflect British usage, however. We wouldn’t use the British term “lorry” for truck, but we have kept the “o-u-r” spellings in words such as “honour” and “colour”.I: This has been very interesting. I’m afraid we’re out of time. It has been a pleasure talking to you.Part III University Life A1 I. Age / Foreign student population II. 15 hrs (+2 or 3 for lab) / Discussion group: 15-20 / much smaller / informal, friendly / 2-3 hrs: 1 hrToday I’d like to give you some idea about how life at an American university or college might be different from the way it is in your country. To be sure, the student body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First of all, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U.S. campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time. Many students live in dormitories on campus, some have their own apartments usually with other students, and others liveat home. Some colleges and universities have a very diverse student population with many racial and ethnic minorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign student population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U.S. college or university campus. Now that you have some general idea of differences in the student population, I’d like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like.Let’s begi n my talking about an average student entering his or her freshman year. Of course, such a person never really exists, but still it’s convenient to talk about an “average”student for ourpurposes. Foreign students are often surprised at how poorly prepared American students are when they enter a university. Actually, at very select schools the students are usually very well prepared, but at less selective schools, they may not be as well prepared as students in your country are. Schools in the States simply admit a lot more students than is usual in most other countries. Also, most young American university students have not traveled in other countries and are not very well-versed in international matters and do not know a lot about people from other countries. Foreign students usually find them friendly but not very well-informed about their countries or cultures.What kind of academic experiences will this so-called “average”student have? The average undergraduate student takes five classes a semester and is in class for 15 hours a week. If her or she takes a class that has a laboratory, this will require tow or three more hours. Many introductory undergraduate classes are given in large lectures of 100 or more students. However, many of these classes will have small discussion groupsof 15 to 20 students that meet once a week. In these smaller groups, a teaching assistant will lead a discussion to help classify points in the lectures. Other kinds of classes –for example, language classes –will be much smaller so that students can practice language. In general, American professors are informal and friendly with their students, and, as much as possible, they expect and invite participation in the form of discussion. A large amount of reading and other work is often assigned to be done outside class, and students are expected to take full responsibility for completing these assignments and asking questions in class about those areas they don’t understand. As a rule of thumb, students spend two to three hours preparing for each hour they spend in class. American professors often encourage their students to visit them during office hours, especially if the students are having problems in the class.A2 II. Examinations / quizzesIII. Graduate school / Seminars / some area of interest / a research paperLet’s move on now to discuss student obligations in a typical American class. These obligations are usually set down in the course syllabus. A syllabus is generally handed out to students on the first or second class meeting. A good syllabus will give students a course outline that mentions all the topics to be covered in class. It will also contain all the assignments and the dates they should be completed by. An average university course of one semester might have three examinations or two examinations and a paper. The dates of the examinations and what the examinations will cover should be on the syllabus. If a paper id required, the date it is due should also be in the syllabus. The professor may also decide that he or she will be givingquizzes during the semester, either announced or unannounced. For students coming from a system where there is one examination in each subject at the end of the year, all this testing can be a little surprising at first. By the by, maybe this would be a good place for me to mention the issue of attendance. Another real difference in our system is out attendance policies. Perhaps you come from a system where attendance is optional. Generally speaking, American professors expect regular attendance and may even grade you down if you are absent a lot. All this information should be on your syllabus, along with the professor’s office number and office hours.I have only a couple of hours left, and I’d like to use them to talk about how graduate school is somewhat different from undergraduate school. Of course, it’s much more difficult to enter graduate school, and most students are highly qualified and high motivated. Students in graduate school are expected to do much more independent work than those in undergraduate schools, withregularly scheduled exams, etc. some classes will be conducted as seminars. In a seminar class, there may be no exams, but students are expected to read rather widely on topics and be prepared for thorough discussion of them in class. Another possibility in graduate classes is that in addition to readings done by all students, each student may also be expected to work independently in some area of interest and later make a presentation that summarizes what her or she has learned.

Today we’re going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages, none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner “types” –the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. At home, they like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to lean by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now, of course, it’s unusual for a person to be exclusively one “type” rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?Part IIA2Primary school entering age secondary school entering age permissible age toleave school Britain 5 11 16The U.S 6 junior high: 11 16Senior high: 14Australia 5 intermediate school: 11 16High school: 12/13Canada 6 about 13 16A31.GCSE examinations2.students / higher education3.student/ second year / high school / college4.general exam / School Certificate5.sitting University Entrance Examination6.bachelor’s degree: 3/ 4 yearsmaster’s degree: another year or twodoctorate: a further 3-7 yearsWell, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, and that’s usually for three years.Well, it depends on what state you’re in but most kids in the United States start school at about six when they go to elementary school and that goes from the first grade up to the sixth grade. Some kids go to a kindergarten the year before that. Then they go on to junior high school, that’s about eleven, and that’s the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. And then they go on to senior high schoo l around age fourteen starting in the tenth grade and finishing in the twelfth grade usually. Some students will leave school at sixteen and they’ll start work, but most of them stay on to graduate from high school at age eighteen. In the first year at high school or college students are called “freshmen”, in the second they’re called “sophomores”, in the third year we call them “juniors” and in the fourth year they’re called “seniors”. Now a lot of high school graduates then go to college or university and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of them might go to junior college which is a two-year course.Well, in Australia, well most states anyway, children start their primary education at five after perhaps a brief time in kindergarten. They wil l stay at primary school until they’re about eleven, then they’ll either stay there or go to an intermediate school for a couple of years. Then they start high school usually twelve or thirteen, which you start in the third form. Now, after three years at high school you sit a general exam, some states call it School Certificate and that is a sort of general qualification and that if a sort of general qualification. After that you can leave school at sixteen or you can go on and sit your University Entrance Examination, which then gives you entrée into a university or it’s another useful qualification, and from then on you go to various sorts of higher education.Education in Canada is a provincial responsibility, but schools are administered by local schoolboards.Kindergarten is for children who are four or five years old. Children begin formal full-day schooling in Grade 1, when they are about six years old. They must stay in school at least until they are sixteen. However, most students continue to finish high school. Some go to college or university. Each year of schooling represents one grade. (The school year extends from the beginning of September to the end of June.) Elementary school includes kindergarten to about Grade 8. Secondary school (or high school) may start in Grade 8, 9, or 10 and it usually continues until Grade 12.In Canada, students may go to university or to a community college. If they want to learn skills for specific job, they attend college for one or four years to get a diploma or certificate. For example, lab technicians, child-care workers, and hotel managers go to college. Universities offer degree programs as well as training professions, such as law, medicine, and teaching.Universities offer three main levels of degrees. Students earn a bachelor’s degree after three or four years of study. A master’s degree can take another year or two. A doctorate may take a further three to seven years to complete.B1 Idioms / vocabulary / French / spelling / pronunciationB2 1. F 2. T 3. FI – Interviewer P – ProfessorI: And now we have an interview with Professor J. T. Lingo, Professor of Linguistics at Chimo University, who is here to talk to us about the growing business of teaching English. Good morning, professor Lingo.P: Good morning.I: I understand that teaching English is becoming “big business” all around the world.P: It seems that language schools are springing up everywhere.I: Why is that?P: With the move toward a global economy, English has become the most widely used language in the world. It is the language of business, aviation, science and international affairs and people find that they must learn English to compete in those fields.I: And do people find English an easy language to learn?P: Well, every language has something about it that other people find difficult to learn. English is such a hodgepodge of different languages –it’s essentially Germanic but a lot of its vocabulary comes from French, and technical words stem from Latin and Greek. This feature makes English fairly adaptable – which is a good thing for a world language – but it causes irregularity in spelling and pronunciation.I: English spelling baffles me, too.P: English also has the largest vocabulary. Often there are words for the same thing, one is Anglo-Saxon and one from the French –like “buy” which is Anglo-Saxon and “purchase” whichis from the French. The French word often has more prestige.I: Anglo-Saxon?P: That’s the word for Old English. The Norman Conquest in 1066 brought the French language to Britain and helped English evolve into the English it is today.I: Is there anything else particularly difficult about English?P: Well, the idioms in informal English pose a problem for some students.I: Informal English?P: As with any language, there are different varieties: slang, colloquial. Formal, written, as well as the different dialects – British, American and Canadian English.I: And how is Canadian English different from American and British?P: Canadian English is closer to American in pronunciation and idiom. Some of our words and our spellings do reflect British usage, however. We wouldn’t use the British term “lorry” for truck, but we have kept the “o-u-r” spellings in words such as “honour”and “colour”.I: This has been very interesting. I’m afraid we’re out of time. It has been a pleasure talking to you.Part III University LifeA1I.A.AgeD. Foreign student populationII.2..15 hrs (+2 or 3 for lab)3. a. +100 b. Discussion group: 15-20 c. much smaller4. informal, friendly6. 2-3 hrs: 1 hrToday I’d like to give you some idea about how life at an American university or college might be different from the way it is in your country. To be sure, the student body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First of all, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U.S. campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time. Many students live in dormitories on campus, some have their own apartments usually with other students, and others live at home. Some colleges and universities have a very diverse student population with many racial and ethnic minorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign student population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U.S. college or university campus. Now that you have some general idea of differences in the student population, I’d like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like.Let’s begin my talking about an average stud ent entering his or her freshman year. Of course, such a person never really exists, but still it’s convenient to talk about an “average” student for our purposes. Foreign students are often surprised at how poorly prepared American students are when they enter a university. Actually, at very select schools the students are usually very well prepared,but at less selective schools, they may not be as well prepared as students in your country are. Schools in the States simply admit a lot more students than is usual in most other countries. Also, most young American university students have not traveled in other countries and are not very well-versed in international matters and do not know a lot about people from other countries. Foreign students usually find them friendly but not very well-informed about their countries or cultures.What kind of academic experiences will this so-called “average” student have? The average undergraduate student takes five classes a semester and is in class for 15 hours a week. If her or she takes a class that has a laboratory, this will require tow or three more hours. Many introductory undergraduate classes are given in large lectures of 100 or more students. However, many of these classes will have small discussion groups of 15 to 20 students that meet once a week. In these smaller groups, a teaching assistant will lead a discussion to help classify points in the lectures. Other kinds of classes – for example, language classes – will be much smaller so that students can practice language. In general, American professors are informal and friendly with their students, and, as much as possible, they expect and invite participation in the form of discussion. A large amount of reading and other work is often assigned to be done outside class, and students are expected to take full responsibility for completing these assignments and asking questions in class about those areas they don’t understand. As a rule of thumb, students spend two to three hours preparing for each hour they spend in class. American professors often encourage their students to visit them during office hours, especially if the students are having problems in the class.A2II. B. 2.Examinations 4.quizzesII.Graduate schoolC. SeminarsD. some area of interestE. a research paperLet’s move on now to discuss student obligations in a typical American class. These obligations are usually set down in the course syllabus. A syllabus is generally handed out to students on the first or second class meeting. A good syllabus will give students a course outline that mentions all the topics to be covered in class. It will also contain all the assignments and the dates they should be completed by. An average university course of one semester might have three examinations or two examinations and a paper. The dates of the examinations and what the examinations will cover should be on the syllabus. If a paper id required, the date it is due should also be in the syllabus. The professor may also decide that he or she will be giving quizzes during the semester, either announced or unannounced. For students coming from a system where there is one examination in each subject at the end of the year, all this testing can be a little surprising at first. By the by, maybe this would be a good place for me to mention the issue of attendance. Another real difference in our system is out attendance policies. Perhaps you come from a system where attendance is optional. Generally speaking, American professors expect regular attendance andmay even grade you down if you are absent a lot. All this information should be on your syllabus, along with the professor’s office number and office hours.I have only a couple of hours left, and I’d like to use them to talk about how graduate school is somewhat different from undergraduate school. Of course, it’s much more difficult to enter graduate school, and most students are highly qualified and high motivated. Students in graduate school are expected to do much more independent work than those in undergraduate schools, with regularly scheduled exams, etc. some classes will be conducted as seminars. In a seminar class, there may be no exams, but students are expected to read rather widely on topics and be prepared for thorough discussion of them in class. Another possibility in graduate classes is that in addition to readings done by all students, each student may also be expected to work independently in some area of interest and later make a presentation that summarizes what her or she has learned. Usually each student then goes on to write a paper on what he or she has researched to turn in to the professor for a grade.I hope that today’s lecture has given you some idea about student life on an American campus and that you have noticed some difference between our system and yours.B2to make mistakes / every new thing / the language/ Working outside the classroomPassive / the teach / stick his neck out / more likely to be right than himself----well what I wanted to ask really was… you’re a teacher, been teaching for many years now, erm, what would you say, how would you describe a good student or a bad student, sort of things they do or don’t do in the classroom?---Erm, well, a good student is usually one who’s not afraid to make mistakes, I’d say.---Uh,huh.----And he’s, er, eager to experiment with every new thing that he learns, whether it be a structure of a function or a new word, erm,he immediately starts trying to use it.\---Yeah, all right.---And h e’s interested in the mistakes he makes, he’s not afraid to make them.---So he’s not simply interested in having it corrected and moving on?---No. no, no. he, he plays with the language.

Today we 're going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages, none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner “types ”- the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. At home, they like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to lean by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now, of course, it 'sunusual for a person to be exclusively one “type ”rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?Part II A3GCSE examinations students / higher educationstudent/ second year / high school / college general exam / School Certificatesitting University Entrance Examination bachelor 's degree: 3/ 4 yearsmaster 's degree: another year or twodoctorate: a further 3-7 years Well, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSEexaminations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, and that 'susually for three years.Well, it depends on what state you 're in but most kids in the United States start school at about six when they go to elementary school and that goes from the first grade up to the sixth grade. Somekids go to a kindergarten the year before that. Then they go on to junior high school, that 's abouteleven, and that 'sthe seventh, eighth and ninth grades. And then they go on to senior high school around age fourteen starting in the tenth grade and finishing in the twelfth grade usually. Some students will leave school at sixteen and they 'll start work, but most of them stay on to graduate from high school at age eighteen. In the first year at high school or college students are called “freshmen ”, in the second they 2. oldest/ largest / reputation / research / science 4. excellence / 17.000 / location 6. 1636 / enrollment / 18,500/ schools 8. located / 135 / third're called “sophomores”, in the third year we call them “juniors ”and in the fourth year they're called “seniors”. Now a lot of high school graduates then go to college or university and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of them might go to junior college which is a two-year course.Well, in Australia, well most states anyway, children start their primary education at five after perhaps a brief time in kindergarten. They will stay at primary school until they 're about eleven,then they 'll either stay there or go to an intermediate school for a couple of years. Then they start high school usually twelve or thirteen, which you start in the third form. Now, after three years at high school you sit a general exam, some states call it School Certificate and that is a sort of general qualification and that if a sort of general qualification. After that you can leave school at sixteen or you can go on and sit your University Entrance Examination, which then gives you entr e^into a university or it' another useful qualification, and from then on you go to various sorts of higher education.Education in Canada is a provincial responsibility, but schools are administered by local school boards. Kindergarten is for children who are four or five years old. Children begin formal full-day schooling in Grade 1, when they are about six years old. They must stay in school at least until they are sixteen. However, most students continue to finish high school. Some go to college or university. Each year of schooling represents one grade. (The school year extends from the beginning of September to the end of June.) Elementary school includes kindergarten to about Grade 8. Secondary school (or high school) may start in Grade 8, 9, or 10 and it usually continues until Grade 12.In Canada, students may go to university or to a community college. If they want to learn skills for specific job, they attend college for one or four years to get a diploma or certificate. For example, lab technicians, child-care workers, and hotel managers go to college. Universities offer degree programs as well as training professions, such as law, medicine, and teaching.Universities offer three main levels of degrees. Students earn a bachelor's degree after three or four years of study. A master's degree can take another year or two. A doctorate may take a further three to seven years to complete.B1 Idioms / vocabulary / French / spelling / pronunciationB2 1. F 2. T 3. FI -In terviewer P - ProfessorI: And now we have an interview with Professor J. T. Lingo, Professor of Linguistics at Chimo University, who is here to talk to us about the growing business of teaching English. Good morning, professor Lingo. P: Good morning.I: I understand that teaching English is becoming “big business”all around the world.P: It seems that language schools are springing up everywhere.I: Why is that?P: With the move toward a global economy, English has become the most widely used language in the world. It is the language of business, aviation, science and international affairs and people find that they must learn English to compete in those fields.I: And do people find English an easy language to learn?P: Well, every language has something about it that other people find difficult to learn. English is such a hodgepodge of differe nt Ian guages - it 'esse ntially Germa nic but a lot of its vocabulary comes fromFrench, and technical words stem from Latin and Greek. This feature makes English fairly adaptable -which is a good thing for a world Ianguage -but it causes irregularity in spelling and pronunciation.I: English spelling baffles me, too.P: English also has the largest vocabulary. Often there are words for the same thing, one is Anglo-Saxon and one from the French -like buy ” which is Anglo-Saxon and purchase" which is from the French. The French word often has more prestige.I: Anglo-Saxon?P: That'sthe word for Old English. The Norman Conquest in 1066 brought the French language to Britain and helped English evolve into the English it is today.I: Is there anything else particularly difficult about English?P: Well, the idioms in informal English pose a problem for some students.I: Informal English?P: As with any language, there are different varieties: slang, colloquial. Formal, written, as well as the different dialects -British, American and Canadian English.I: And how is Canadian English different from American and British?P: Canadian English is closer to American in pronunciation and idiom. Some of our words and our spellings do reflect British usage, however. We wouldn 'tuse the British term “lorry” for truck, but we have kept the “o-u-r” spellings in words such as “honour” and “colour”.I: This has been very interesting. I 'm afraid we 're out of time. It has been a pleasure talking to you.Part III University Life A1 I. Age / Foreign student population II. 15 hrs (+2 or 3 forlab) / Discussion group: 15-20 / much smaller / informal, friendly / 2-3 hrs: 1 hrToday I 'dlike to give you some idea about how life at an American university or college might be different from the way it is in your country. To be sure, the student body on a U. S. campus is a pretty diverse group of people. First of all, you will find students of all ages. Although most students start college at around the age of 18, you will see students in their 30s and 40s and even occasionally in their 60s and 70s. Students on a U.S. campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Many students work at least part-time, some of them work full-time. Many students live in dormitories on campus, some have their own apartments usually with other students, and others live at home. Some colleges and universities have a very diverse student population with many racial and ethnic minorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign student population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people on a U.S. college or university campus. Now that you have some general idea of differences in the student population, I 'dlike to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is and then discuss with you what a typical class might be like.Let's begin my talking about an average student entering his or her freshman year. Of course, such a person never really exists, but still it's convenient to talk about an “average” student for our purposes. Foreign students are often surprised at how poorly prepared American students are when they enter a university. Actually, at very select schools the students are usually very well prepared, but at less selective schools, they may not be as well prepared as students in your country are. Schools in the States simply admit a lot more students than is usual in most other countries. Also, most young American university students have not traveled in other countries and are not very well-versed in international matters and do not know a lot about people from other countries. Foreign students usually find them friendly but not very well-informed about their countries or cultures.What kind of academic experiences will this so-called “average”student have? The average undergraduate student takes five classes a semester and is in class for 15 hours a week. If her or she takes a class that has a laboratory, this will require tow or three more hours. Many introductory undergraduate classes are given in large lectures of 100 or more students. However, many of these classes will have small discussion groups of 15 to 20 students that meet once a week. In these smaller groups, a teaching assistant will lead a discussion to help classify points in the lectures. Other kinds of classes -for example, language classes -will be much smaller so that students can practice language. In general, American professors are informal and friendly with their students, and, as much as possible, they expect and invite participation in the form of discussion. A large amount of reading and other work is often assigned to be done outside class, and students are expected to take full responsibility for completing these assignments and asking questions in class about those areas they don'tunderstand. As a rule of thumb, students spend two to three hours preparing for each hour they spend in class. American professors often encourage their students to visit them during office hours, especially if the students are having problems in the class.A2 II. Examinations / quizzesIII. Graduate school / Seminars / some area of interest / a research paperLet's move on now to discuss student obligations in a typical American class. These obligations are usually set down in the course syllabus. A syllabus is generally handed out to students on the first or second class meeting. A good syllabus will give students a course outline that mentions all the topics to be covered in class. It will also contain all the assignments and the dates they should be completed by. An average university course of one semester might have three examinations or two examinations and a paper. The dates of the examinations and what the examinations will cover should be on the syllabus. If a paper id required, the date it is due should also be in the syllabus. The professor may also decide that he or she will be giving quizzes during the semester, either announced or unannounced. For students coming from a system where there is one examination in each subject at the end of the year, all this testing can be a little surprising at first. By the by, maybe this would be a good place for me to mention the issue of attendance. Another real difference in our system is out attendance policies. Perhaps you come from a system where attendance is optional. Generally speaking, American professors expect regular attendance and may even grade you down if you are absent a lot. All this information should be on your syllabus, along with the professor 's office number and office hours.I have only a couple of hours left, and I 'dlike to use them to talk about how graduate school is somewhat different from undergraduate school. Of course, it's much more difficult to enter graduate school, and most students are highly qualified and high motivated. Students in graduate school are expected to do much more independent work than those in undergraduate schools, withregularly scheduled exams, etc. some classes will be conducted as seminars. In a seminar class, there may be no exams, but students are expected to read rather widely on topics and be prepared for thoroughdiscussion of them in class. Another possibility in graduate classes is that in addition to readings done by all students, each student may also be expected to work independently in some area of interest and later make a presentation that summarizes what her or she has learned. Usually each student then goes on to write a paper on what he or she has researched to turn in to the professor for a grade.I hope that today 's lecture has given you some idea about student life on an American campus and that you have noticed some difference between our system and yours.B2 to make mistakes / every new thing / the language/ Working outside the classroomPassive / the teach / stick his neck out / more likely to be right than himselfHow would you describe a good student or a bad student, sort of things they do or don 'tdo in theclassroom?He 's eager to experiment with every new thing that he learns, whether it be a structure of a function or a new word, he immediately starts trying to use it.He 's interested in the mistakes he makes, he 's not afraid to make them.He 's not simply interested in having it corrected and moving on?He plays with language.I 've done this chapter I know this, without trying to experiment at all, without really testing himself.He 'usually passive, he won 'speak up much in the classroom. He 'rarely ask you why this … Just sort of accepts what you give him and doesn 'tdo anything more with it.… and in a test he 's the one person who 'slikely to suddenly realize that he wasn 'ttoo sure about that after all.And peep over at his neighbor 's paper.An alternative learning strategy.He invariably decides that the other person is more likely to be right than himself. That's the result of this sort of unwillingness to make mistakes and stick his neck out.That characterizes the good or bad learner?He 'lldo more off his own bat as well, he won 'trely entirely on the teacher.He 'llwork outside the classroom as well as in it.Students who make most progress are first of all those who experiment and secondly those who read books.14. the Clinic 15. the Auditorium 16. the Administration BuildingLook at the map.

Well, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, and that’s usually for three years.
Unit1 听力原稿 step by step 3000 1
听力原稿Part I Section A1.What kind of student comes to Oxford? The answer to this is,there is no “OxfordType”. Common qualities they look for are commitment, enthusiasm, and motivation for your chosen area of study backed by a strong academic record.2.The university of Cambridge is the one of the oldest university in the world and oneof the largest in the United Kingdom. It has a world wide reputation for outstanding academic achievement and the high quality of research undertaken in a wide region of science and arts subjects.3.The university of Sydney was the first to be established in the Australia and afteralmost 150 years of proud achievement, still leads in innovation and quality. The university excels in sport,and social activities, debating, drama, music and much more.4.Known for excellence in teaching, research and services to the community, theuniversity of Victoria serves approximately 17,000 students.It is favored by its location on Canada's spectacular west coast, in the capital of British Columbia.5.New Zealand’s largest university, the university of Auckland, was established in1883, and has grown into a international center of learning and academic excellence.The university is situated in the heart of the cosmopolitan city of Auckland and provides an exciting and stimulating environment for 26,000 students.6.Founded in 1636, Harvard has a 380 acre urban campus with easy access to Boston.It has a total enrollment of about 18500 students. This university comprises many different schools such as the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, School of Business Administration and School of Education.7.Columbia University is a independent coeducational university. which awardsmasters, doctoral, professional, and other advanced degrees. with an enrollment of about 20,000 graduates and professional students.8.Boston university is located along the banks of Charles River. With more than30,000 students from all over the United States and 135 countries, it's the third largest independent university in the United States.Part I Section B.1.There are more than 2,700 languages in the world. In addition, there are more than7,000 dialects. A dialect is a regional variety of language that has different pronunciation, vocabulary or meaning.2.The language in which a government conducts business is the official language ofthat country.3.One billion people speak English. That's 20 percent of the world's population.4.400 million people speak English as their first language. For the other 600 million,it's either a second language or foreign language.5.There are more than 500,000 words in the Oxford Dictionary. Eighty percent of allEnglish Vocabulary comes from other languages.6.Eighty percent of all information in the world's computers is in English.7.Somalia is the only African country in which the entire population speaks the samelanguage, Somali.8.More than 1,000 different languages are spoken on the continent of Africa.9.When the American spaceship voyage began its journey in 1977, it carried a golddisc. On the disc, there were messages in 55 languages. Before all of them, there wasa message from the Secretary General of the United Nations in English.Part I Section CNone of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learning types. The communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner, and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native listeners. At home, they like to learn by watching TVs and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them.In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to learn by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, by talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and at school. Now authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down at the notebook, and they like to have a textbook They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we haveanalytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books. And they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now of course, it's unusual for a person to be exclusively one type rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?Part II Educational systems.Section AA1, you are going to hear some people talking about the educational system in their country.Before listening, discuss the prelistening questions below.1, how old are children when they begin school in our country?2, how are the levels of schooling2 divided?3, what do school children have to take before they enter the university?A2, now listen to the material. while listening, focus on the points in the chart. Supply the missing information in the chart.Well, in Britain, for the ages of 5 to about 11, you start off at primary school. And then for 11 to 16, you are go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school. And at 16, you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at the school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of 18, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education to a college or university, and that's usually for 3 years. Well, it depends what state you are in, but most kids in United States start school at about 6. When they go to elementary school and that goes from first grade up to sixth grade.Some kids go to a kindergarten a year before that.Then they go on to a junior high school, that's about 11, and that's the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. Then they go on to senior high school around age 14, er, starting in the tenth grade and finish in the twelfth grade, usually. Some students,...er, will leave school at 16 and they'll start work, But, er, most of them stay on to graduate, er, from high school at age 18.In the first year of high school or college, students are called "freshmen3". In the second, they are called "sophomores4". In the third year, we call them "juniors", and in the fourth year, they are called "seniors". Now, a lot of high school graduates er, then go to college or university, and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of them might go to junior college, er, which is two-year course. Well, in Austria, what in the most states anyway, children start their primary education at 5 after perhaps a brief time in the kindergarten. They will stay at primary school until they are about 11. Then they'll either stay there or go to an intermediate school for a couple of years. Then they start high school usually 12 or 13, which you start in the third form. Now after three years in the high school, you sit a general exam, some states call it School Certificate, and that is sort of a general qualification. After that, you can leave school at 16 or you can go on and sit your University Entrance Examination, which then gives you entree5 into a university or it's another useful qualification. And from then on you go to various sorts of high education. Education in Canada is a provincial responsibility, but school are administered by local school boards. Kindergarten is for children who are 4 or 5 years old. Children begin formal full-day schooling in grade one. When they are about 6 years old, they must stay in school at least until they are 16. However, most students continue to finish high school, Some go on to college or university.Each year of schooling represents one grade. The school year extends from the beginning of September to the end of June. Elementary school, includes kindergarten, to about grade eight. Secondary school or high school may start in grade eight, nine or ten, and usually continues until grade twelve. In Canada, students may go to university or to a community college. If they want to learn skills for a specific job, they attend college for 1 to 4 years to get the diploma or certificate. For example, lab technicians, child-care workers, and hotel managers go to college. Universites offer degree programs as well as training in certain professions such as law, medicine and teaching. Universities offer three main levels of degrees. Students earn a bachelor's degree after three or four years of study. A master's degree can take another year or two.A doctoral may take a further three to seven years to complete.A3. Now listen again, answer the following questions brieflySection BB1. listen to an interview talking on some facts about English. Focus on the things make English difficult to learn. Supply the missing information.And now, we have an interview with a professor J.T Lingo8, Professor of Linguistics at Chimo university, who is here to talk to us about the growing business of teaching English.Good morning, professor lingo.Good morning.Professor, I understand that teaching English is becoming "big business" all around the world.It's seems that language schools are springing up everywhere.Why is that?With the move toward of global economy, English has became the most widely used language in the world.It's the language of business, aviation,science and international affairs, and people find that they must learn English to compete in those fields.And do people find English an easy language to learn?Well, every language has something about it that other people find difficult to learn.English is such a hodgepodge of different languages.It's essentially9 Germanic but a lot of its vocabulary comes from French.And technical words stem from Latin and Greek.This feature makes English fairly adaptable10, which is a good thing for a world language, but it causes irregularity in spelling and pronunciation.English spelling baffles me, too.Yes, well, anyway, English also has the largest vocabulary.Often there are words for the same thing.One that is Anglo-Saxon and one from the French like"buy" which is Anglo-Saxon, and"purchase" which is from the French.The French word often has more prestige.Anglo-Saxon?That's the word for old English.The Norman Conquest in 1066 brought the French language to Britain and help English evolved into the language it's today.I see, is there anything else particularly different about English?Well, the idioms in the informal English pose a problem for some students.Informal English?As with any language, there are different varieties. slang, colloquial11, formal,written, as well as the different dialects, British, American and Canadian English.And how is Canadian English different from American and British?Well, Canadian English is close to American pronunciation and idiom.Some of our words and spellings do reflect British usage.However, we wouldn't use British term "lorry" for a truck.But we have kept the "o-u-r" spellings in words such as "honour", and "colour".This has been very interesting, professor.I am afraid we're out of time.It has been a pleasure talking to you.Thank you.We have been talking to Professor Lingo of Chimo University.B2. Now listen again.Decide whether the statements are true or false, put T for true or F for false in the blankets. Then discuss the following questions.Questions for discussion.1, Do you agree that English will eventually be the world language?If not, which language do you think will be?2, From your experience, what is particularly difficult to learn about English.Part III. University LifeSection AA1. you are going to hear a lecture on university life in the U.S.First, listen to the first part of the lecture. Complete the outline.Today I'd like to give you some idea about how life at an American university or college might be different for the way it is in your country. To be sure, the student body on the U.S campus is a pretty diverse group of people.First of all, you'll find students of all ages Although most students start college at around the age of 18. You'll see students in their 30s and 40s, and even occasionally in their 60s or 70s. Students in the U.S campus come from a wide variety of socioeconomic backgrounds.Many students work at least part-time, and some of them work full-time. Some of the students live in the dormitories on campus, some of them have their own apartments, usually with other students, and others live at home. Some colleges and universities have a very diverse student population with many racial andethnic minorities. Some schools have a fairly large foreign students population. So you can see that one meets all kinds of people in the U.S college or university campus. Now you have some general idea of differences in the students body population. I'd like to talk a few minutes about what I think an average student is, and then discuss with you what a typical classmight be like. Let's begin my talking about a average student entering his or her freshman year. Of course, such a person never really exists. But still it's convenient to talk about an average student for our purposes. Foreign students are often surprised at how poorly prepared American students are when they enter a university.Actually, at very select schools, the students are usually very well prepared. But in less selective schools, they may not be as well-prepared as students in your country are. Schools in the states simply admit a lot more students than is usual in most other countries. Also, most young American university students have not traveled in other countries, and are not very well-versed in international matters, and do not know a lot about people from other countries. Foreign students usually find them friendly, but not very well informed about their countries or cultures.What kind of academic experiences will this so-called average student have? The average undergraduate student takes 5 classes a semester and is in class about 15 hours a week. If he or she takes a class that has a laboratory, this will require two or three more hours. Many introductory undergraduate classes are given in large lectures of 100 or more students. However, many of these classes will have small discussion groups of 15-20 students that meet once a week. In these smaller groups, a teaching assistant will leada discussion do help clarify points in the lectures. Other kinds of classes, for example, language classes will be much smaller so that the students can practice language.In general, American professors are informal and friendly with their students. And as much as possible, they expect and invite participation in the form of discussion. A large amount of reading and other work is often assigned to be done outside the class. And students are expected to take full responsibility for complete these assignments and ask questions in class about those areas they don't understand. As a rule of thumb, students spend two to three hours preparing for each hour they spend in the class. American professors often encourage their students to visit them during office hours, especially if the students are having problems in the class.A2, Now listen to the second part of the lecture. Finish the outline.Let's move on now to discuss student obligations in a typical American class. These obligations are usually set down in the course syllabus. A syllabus is generally handed out to the students on the first or second class meeting. A good syllabus will give the students a course outline that mentions all the topics should be covered in the class. It will also contain all the assignments and the dates they should be completed by. And an average university course of one semester might have 3 examinations or 2 examinationsand a paper. The dates of the examinations and what the examinations will cover should be on the syllabus. If a paper is required, the date it's due should also be on the syllabus. The professor may also decide that he or she will be giving quizzes during the semester, either announced or unannounced. For students coming from a system where there is one examination in each subject at the end of the year, all these testing can be a little surprising at first. Oh, by the way, maybe this would be a good place for me to mention the issue of attendance. Another really difference in our system is our attendance policies. Perhaps you come from a system where attendances are optional. Generally speaking, American professors expect regular attendance and may even grade you down if you're absent a lot. All these information should be on your syllabus. along with the professor's office number and office hours. I have only a couple minutes left. And I'd like to use them to talk about how graduate school is somewhat different from undergraduate school. Of course, it's much more difficult to enter a graduate school. And most students are high qualified and high motivated. Students in graduate school are expected to do much more independent work than those in undergraduate school with regularly scheduled exams,etc. Some classes will be conducted as seminars. In a seminar class, there are may be no exams. But students are expected to read rather widely on topics and be prepared for thorough discussion of them the class. Another possibility in graduate classes is that in addition to readings done by all the students. Each student may also be expected to work independently in some areas of interest. And later make a presentation that summarizes what he or she has learned. Usually, each student then goes on to write a paper on what he or she has researched to turn in to the professor for a grade. I hope that today's lecture has given you some ideas about student life on an American campus. And you have noticed some differences between our system and yours.Section BB1. Before you listen to the conversion, please list some of the things that a good student or a bad student will do in the classroom.B2. Now listen to the conversion in which a teacher described the sort of things a good student or a bad student does or does not do in a classroom.In the following chart, some facts have been given to you, The symbol "dot cycle" stands for major points, while the symbol "white diamond" stands for the supportive details. Complete the chart.What I wanted to ask really was, you are a teacher, in teaching for some years now. what would you say, how would you describe a good student or a bad student? You know, sort of things what they do or don't do in the classroom? Well, a good student is usually one who's not afraid to make mistake, I'd say. Uh, hum, And he's, er, eager to experiment with every new thing that he learns, whether it's be a structure or a function or a new word. He immediately starts to trying to use it. Yeah, all right. And he's interested in mistakes he made, he's not afraid to make them. So he is not simply interested in having it corrected and moving on? no,no,no, He, he plays with the language. A bad student, on the other hand, will perhaps say, "OK, I've done this chapter I know this", without trying to experiment at all, with really testing himself. Aha,aha. He's usually passive,he won't speak up much in the classroom and very rarely ask you why this and why not something else. Just sort of accepts what you give him and doesn't doing anything more with it. That's right. And in a test, he is the one person who is likely to suddenly realize that , er, Yes, he wasn't too sure about that after all. Yeah. And peep over at the, er, his neighbor's paper. Oh ,yes, an alternative learning strategy. Right. And he invariably decides that the other person is more likely to be right than themselves. I think that's ,the result of,er, this sort of, unwillingness to make mistakes and sticks his neck out. Mm, Right, Yeah. Er, anything else? Er? That characterizes the good or bad learner? Er, mm, The bad learner is, wait a minute,er, the good learner is, er, well, I think he'll do more off his own bat as well, he won't rely entirely on the teacher. Mm,hum. He'll read, He'll read books. Mm, so work outside the classroom as well as in it. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Students who make most progress are first of all those who experiment and secondly those who read books.Part 4. University CampusSection AYou are going to hear some information about the layout5 of the university campus. Listen carefully. Write down the names of different places in the right positions on the map.Look at the map, at the bottom of the page, find the gate.Now locate the administration building, it's between the river and the lake, close to the main road.The building behind the administration is the auditorium.Where is the library?It's on the right-hand side of the main road, close to the river.Across the main road from the library, the building by the river is the Education Department.The first building on the left-hand side of the main road is the Geography Department.The Philosophy Department is between the Education and Geography.The building at the end of the main road is the Mathematics Department.On its left is the Physics Department.And on its right, near the lake is the Chemistry Department.Another building behind the lake is the Clinic.The Chinese Department is facing the lake, across the main road.The building between the Chinese Department and the river is the Foreign Languages Department.The History Department is the first building on the right of the main road.Next to the History Department is the Psychology Department.And last the sports ground is behind the education, philosophy and geography departments.Section BA student is applying for a university.Fill in the application form with information you hear.Good morning, have a seat.Good morning, thank you.I have an application here somewhere. Yes, here it is. Your name is Robert Martin. Right?That's right, Sir.And you hope to enter our university next fall?Yes, sir, if I can make it.Fine, Bob. I notice that you finished high school a year ago.Why didn't you enter a college that year?Well, I have a sister in college now.And there's another one who will be going next year.So I had to earn a little money to help pay my way.Good, it sounds as if you are pretty responsible fellow.I see that you attended two grade schools.Yes, Sir. My first six years I went to a public school in my hometown.Then I went to an military school for two years.And came back your hometown for your high school.That's right, Sir.I see. I don't find a transcript among your papers.Do you have one?I'm not sure I know what that is.Oh, That's a list of your grades.Oh, yes. That's in the mail now.Oh, right. How were your grades?Well, pretty good until my second year in the high school.Then I guess I got a little too interested in sports.But I know I'll work hard in college.What do you want to major in?I want to major in biology.That was my best subject in high school.I'm really interested in it.That sounds fine, Bob.Have you discussed this with your teachers and your parents?Oh, sure. My science teacher thinks that's just what I ought to go into and my parents say I should make my own choice.Did you have some math and other science courses in high school?Everything they offered.And I did some extra work for my teacher,too.Well, Bob, You should get along all right here.But it's hard to keep up with both sports and studies.Yes, sir, I know.Fine, I'll hold your application until we get the transcript.When we've seen it, we'll let you know, probably in about two weeks.Thank you very much, sir.By the way, what did your guidance counselor tell you?He told me I had a real knack for scientific things.I know I do, too.I've been fascinated9 with science since I was a child.And interest of that kind of really signifies10 something. Well, good luck, Bob.Thank you, sir, goodbye.。

Well, it depends on what state you’re in but most kids in the United States start school at about six when they go to elementary school and that goes from the first grade up to the sixth grade. Some kids go to a kindergarten the year before that. Then they go on to junior high school, that’s about eleven, and that’s the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. And then they go on to senior high school around age fourteen starting in the tenth grade and finishing in the twelfth grade usually. Some students will leave school at sixteen and they’ll start work, but most of them stay on to graduate from high school at age eighteen. In the first year at high school or college students are called “freshmen”, in the second they’re called “sophomores”, in the third year we call them “juniors” and in the fourth year they’re called “seniors”. Now a lot of high school graduates then go to college or university and they do a four-year first degree course. Some of them might go to junior college which is a two-year course.

Well, in Britain, from the ages of five to about eleven you start off at a primary school, and then from eleven to sixteen you go on to a secondary school or a comprehensive school and at sixteen you take GCSE examinations. After this, some children take vocational courses or even start work. Others stay on at school for another two years to take A levels. And at the age of eighteen, after A levels, they might finish their education or go on to a course of higher education at a college or university, and that’s usually for three years.

All right, class. Today we’re going to be looking at different language learning styles. You may be surprised to find that there are different ways of going about learning languages, none of which is necessarily better than the others. Researchers have identified four basic learner “types” – the communicative learner, the analytical learner, the authority-oriented learner and the concrete learner. Communicative learners like to learn by watching and listening to native speakers. At home, they like to learn by watching TV and videos. They like to learn new words by hearing them. In class, they like to learn by having conversations. Now, concrete learners like to learn by playing games, by looking at pictures and videos in class, by talking in pairs, and by listening to cassettes at home and school. Now, authority-oriented learners, on the other hand, like the teacher to explain everything. They like to write everything down in their notebook, and they like to have a textbook. They like to learn new words by seeing them. And finally, we have analytical learners. These learners like to learn by studying grammar. At home, they like to learn by studying English books, and they like to study by themselves. They like to find their own mistakes. Now, of course, it’s unusual for a person to be exclusively one “type” rather than another. Most of us are mixtures of styles. What type of learner do you think you are?
