It is not simplified in any way for the convenience of learners of the language.

Now they’re beginning to fill in the blanks.Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sunto guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly at night Tests with artificial stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the star in their long-distance flights.One such bird---a warbler(鸣禽)---had spent its lifetime in a cage and never flown under the natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the make-believe stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.Scientists think that warbler, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation. What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river courses. But when it’s too dark to see these, the w arblers circle helplessly, unable to get their bearings.1. The reason why birds don’t get lost in migratory flights ( B )A. have been known to scientists for years .B. have only recently been discovered.C. are known by everyone.D. will probably remain a mystery.2. The experiment with the warbler indicated that( D )A. birds have to be taught to navigate.?B. a bird that has been caged will not migrate.C. some birds cannot fly at night.D. some birds seem instinctively to follow the star when flying at night.( D )3. Under artificial stars, the bird in the cageA. tried to fly in the same direction as birds not caged .B. changed direction when the position of the stars was changed.C. would not fly at all.D. both A and B.4. Warblers migrate( C )A. from North American to the Falkland Islands.B. only once during their lifetime.C. using what is apparently an inborn navigational ability.D. when they are freed from their cages.5. This article is a good example of the way scientists( B )A. jump to conclusion.?B. discover workable answers to general questions by studying particular cases.C. formulate a law and then carry out investigation.D. are frustrated by the habits of animals.1. In the night sky you might see a big white ball. This is the moon. The moon moves around the earth. It does this one time about every 291/2 days. It is smaller than the stars. But it looks bigger. That’s because it is closer to us than the stars.Sometimes the moon looks like a ball of light. Other times it looks only part of a ball. But it is really always the same. The moon’s light comes from the sun. Sometimes one part is lighted. Other times another part is lighted. We see only the part of the moon that is lighted.The moon has no air, no wind, and no water. So nothing can live there. There are no plants or animals. It is made up mostly of rock. There are big holes all over the moon. Sometimes you can see dark places on the moon. It is really these holes that you are seeing.Let’s say you were standing on the moon and you looked up. The sky would be black. It always looks like night. And the stars in it are always out. In the day the rocks on the moonget very hot. At night they are colder than any place on the earth.People have always liked to look at the moon. In it they have seen many things. Some think they see people. Others see animals. One person might see a frog or a cat. Another might see a rabbit. Look up at the moon tonight. What do you see1. According to the passage we know that the moon B .A. is bigger than the stars, but looks smallerB. looks smaller because it is closer to us than the starsC. is smaller than the stars, but looks biggerD. looks bigger because it is farther to us than the stars2. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage C .A. The light from the sun sometimes lights only one part of the moon.B. People could see dark holes al over the moon.C. Nothing could live on the noon except animals because it is made up of rock.D. No life could be seen on the moon without air and water on it.3. From the passage we can infer that D .A. the difference between day temperature and nighttemperature on the moon is very bigB. people could not stand on the moon because it is very hotin the dayC. people could not stand on the moon because it is too coldat nightD. it’s impossible for people to live on the moon because thereis no food there4. The author implies that the reason why people like to look at the moon is that C .A. they believe there are really people on the moonB. they think some animals are living on the moonC. they care for the frogs, cats and rabbits on the moonD. the moon can give them many imaginations5. The purpose of the writer in writing this passage is toA .A. tell us something about the moonB. require us to distinguish the moon and the starsC. emphasize the importance of the moonD. state the relationship between people and the moon2. During one summer not long ago, Americans in the Southwest were without rain for many days. The sun burned up crops. Animals went hungry on the dry land. At last, clouds appearedin the sky and sent down rain.How do such clouds form The sun, the earth, and the air all play a part. The changes that take place before clouds can formdo not always happen quickly. First, the earth is heated by the sun. This causes tiny drops of water in oceans and riversto rise and mix with air. As the wet air rises higher, it cools off, making clouds.What causes these clouds to become rain The tiny drops of water inside the clouds become larger as they gather more wetness from the air around them. Finally, the drops become so large that they can no longer be held up by the air. They fall to the ground as rain.The raindrops that fall are not always the same size. Some maybe very large. But the smallest come down in a fine mist.Rain is needed for all life. When it falls after a long dry spell, trees, grass, and bushes may begin to look fresh and green again. These plants need water to stay healthy. The rain also causes streams to fill with water. This makes it possiblefor fish and other animals to live. Rain brings new life and hope to millions of people and other living things.1. The first paragraph mentions the period of time during which the weather was very and crops wereD .A. rainy, burntB. drought, burnt upC. drought, burntD. dry, burnt up2. The phrase “play a part” means D .A. be a roleB. form as a partC. connect with each otherD. make a contribution3. Concerning how rain comes into being, which statement is true D .A. A lot of drops of water rise and mix with air as the sun shines.B. Wet air cools off as it rises higher.C. The drops become larger and larger as they gather more wetness.D. The drops fall to the ground as they become too large to hold up.4. In the last paragraph, the word “spell” means C .A. weatherB. a periodC. timesD. none of the above5. This passage mainly explains B of clouds and rain.A. the formationB. the phenomenaC. the importanceD. the function83. Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things whichwere considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on the street. No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country Or doesn’t it matter What about table manners Should you use both hands when you are eating Should you leave one on your lap, or on the tableThe Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o’clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable, especially if they are your guests. There is an old story abouta man who gave a formal dinner party. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.1. If one has accepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is to be late for the dinner( D )A. He should find an excuse.B. He should ask for excuse.C. He should say “Sorry”.D. He should telephone to explain his being late.2. “It would have been bad manners to make his guests feel foolish or uncomfortable.” “Bad manners: means ( C )A. uglyB. dishonestC. impoliteD. shameful3. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage( A )A. Social Customs and BehaviorB. Social lifeC. American and British CustomsD. Promptness Is Important4. According to the text, the best host ( A )A. tries his best to make his guests feel comfortableB. makes his guests feel excitedC. tries to avoid being naughty to his guestsD. tries to avoid being foolish5. The author of this article may agree with which of the following( C )A. The guest who ate his peas with a knife.B. The other guests who were amused or shocked.C. The host who picked up his knife and began eating in the same way.D. None of the above.四、汉译英1. 我现在无法想像没有孩子们的生活。

Thus the challenge confronting language teaching is how teaching methodology can ensure successful learning by all the learners who have more differences than the commonality.2. What are the major views of language?1) Structural view:Language is a linguistic system made up of various subsystems: phonology, morphology, lexicology and syntacx. To learn a language is to learn its vocabulary and structural rules.2) Functional view:Language is a linguistic system as well as a means for doing things. Learners learn a language in order to be able to do things with it (use it). To perform functions, learners need to know how to combine the grammatical rules and the vocabulary to express notions that perform the functions.3) Interactional view:Language is a communicative tool to build up and maintain social relations between people. Learners need to know the rules of a language and where, when and how it is appropriate to use them.3.Views on Language LearningTwo broad learning theories:Process-oriented theories are concerned with how the mind organizes new information.Condition-oriented theories emphasize the nature of human and physical context.Behaviorist theoryB. F. SkinnerA stimulus-response theory of psychologyAudio-lingual methodThe idea of this method is that language is learned by constant repetition and the reinforcement of the teacher. Mistakes were immediately corrected, and correct utterances were immediately praised.Cognitive theoryInfluenced by Noam Chomsky (revival of structural linguistics) Language as an intricate rule-based systemA learner acquires language competence which enables him to producelanguage.One influential idea of cognitive approach to language teaching is that students should be allowed to create their own sentence based on their own understanding of certain rules.Constructivist theoryJean Piaget (1896—1980)The learner constructs meaning based on his/her own experiences and what is already known.Socio-constructivist theoryVygotsky“Zone of Proximal Development” (ZPD); scaffolding(脚手架)Learning is best achieved through the dynamic interaction between the teacher and the learner and between learners.4 What are the qualities of a good language teacher?A good language teacher does not solely depend on his/her command of the language. There are a variety of element that contributes to the qualities of a good language teacher. These element can be categorized into three5 How can one become a good language teacher?☐Wallace’s (1991) ‘reflective model’ (Figure 1.1, p.9)Stage 1: language developmentStage 2: learning, practice, reflection❖The learning stage is the purposeful preparation that a language normally receives before the practice,This preparation caninclude:1. Learning from others’ experience2. Learning the received knowledge3. Learning from one’s own experiences❖The practice stage (2 senses)Pseudo practice:short period of time assigned to do teachingpractice as part of one’s pre-service education, usually under thesupervision of instructorsThe real classroom teaching:what a teacher undertakes after he/shefinishes formal education❖Teachers benefit from practice if they keep on reflecting on what they have been doingGoal: professional competenceUnit 2 Communicative Principles and Task-based language teaching 1 How is language learned in classrooms different from language used in real life?Language used in real life Language taught in the classroomTo perform certain communtcative functions To focus on forms (structures or patterns)Use all skills, both receptive skills and productive skills To focus on one or two language skills and ignore others.Used in a certain context To isolate language from itscontext2 What is communicative competence?To bridge the gap between classroom language teaching and real-life language use, one solution is to adopt CLT, the goal of which is to develop students’communicative competence.3. Definition:Communicative competence include both the knowledge about the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situations4 Five components of communicative competence (Hedge 2000)◆Linguistic competence (语言能力)The knowledge of language itself, its form and meaning.◆ Pragmatic competence (语用能力)The appropriate use of language in social context.◆ Discourse competence (语篇能力)One’s ability to create coherent written text or conversation and the ability to understand them◆ Strategic competence (策略能力)Strategies one employs when there is communication breakdown due to lack of resources.◆ Fluency (流利性)One ‘s ability to ‘link units of speech together with facility and without strain or inappropriate slowness or undue(过分的,不适当的)hesitation’6.Implications for teaching and learningTeaching must enable learners to grasp the five components of communicative competence, but not just the linguistic competence.7. Principles of CLTThree principles suggest by Richard and Rodgers:1 Communication principle:involve real communication2 Task principle:Carry out meaningful tasks3 Meaningfulness principle:Meaningful language to the learnerHowatt proposes a weak and a strong version of CLT:Weak versionLearners first acquire language as a structural system and then learn how to use it in communication.Strong version“language is acquired through communication” (Howatt, 1984:279)8. Major Activity Types of CLTA sequence of activities represented in Littlewood (1981: 86)Pre-communicative activities✓Structural activities✓Quasi-communicative activities类似,准,半Communicative activities (PP22-23)▪Functional communication activities▪Social interaction activities9.Littlewood’s (1981)classification of communicativeactivities:1). Functional communicative activities:2). Social interaction activities:(1). Functional communicative activities:1. Identifying pictures2. Discovering identical pairs3. Discovering sequences or locations4. Discovering missing information5. Discovering missing features6. Discovering "secrets"municating patterns and pictures8. Communicative models9. Discovering differences10. Following directions11. Reconstructing story-sequences12. Pooling information to solve a problem(2). Social interaction activities:1.

Improvisation10.Six Criteria for evaluating communicative classroomactivitiesmunicative purpose2. Communicative desire3. Content, not form4.Variety of language5.No teacher intervention6. No materials control9.What is Task-based Language Teaching?TBLT is a further development of CLT. It shares the same belief in the use of language in real life, but stresses the importance to combine form-focused teaching with communication-focused teaching.10.Four components of a task1. A purpose2. A context3. A process4. A product11. Exercises, exercise-tasks and tasksExercise-tasks is halfway between tasks and exercises. This kind of activity consists of contextualized practice of language item.12. Differences between PPP and TBLT1The way students use and experience language in TBLT is radically different from PPP. 1.Free of language control2. genuine need to use language to communicate3.A free exchange of ideas4.Appropriateness & accuracy of language form in general, not production of a single form5.A genuine need for accuracy and fluency2.TBL can provide a context for grammar teaching and form-focused activities. PPP isdifferent in this aspect.A task-established contextEncouraged to think, analyze, not simply to repeat, manipulate and applyA more varied exposure to natural languageLanguage forms not pre-selected for focusLearner-free selection of languageTBL cycle lead from Fluency to accuracy (+fluency)In TBL Integrated skills practiced13. How to design tasks?Step 1 Think about students’ needs, interests, and abilitiesStep 2 Brainstorm possible tasksStep 3 Evaluate the listStep 4 Choose the language itemsStep 5 Preparing materials14. CLT and TBLT in the Chinese contextProblems with CLT1. The very first and forceful argument is whether it is culturallyappropriate2. The second problem of CLT relate to the design the syllabus for teaching purpose in the classroom.3. The third problem is that whether such an approach is suitable for all age level of learners or all competence level of learnersConstraints of TBLT1.The first is it may not be effective for presenting new language items2.The second constraint is Time as teachers have to prepare task-based activities very carefully.3.The third is the culture of learning4.The forth is Level of difficultyUnit 31. A brief history of foreign language teaching in China❖ A phase of restoration (1978-1985)❖ A phase of rapid development (1986-1992)❖ A phase of reform (1993-2000)❖ A phase of innovation from 20002. Designing principles for the National English Curriculum 1)Aim for educating all students, and emphasize quality-oriented education.2) Promote learner-centeredness, and respect individual differences.3) Develop competence-based objectives, and allow flexibility and adaptability.4) Pay close attention to the learning process, and advocate experiential learning and participation.5) Attach particular importance to formative assessment, and give special attention to the development of competence.6) Optimize learning resources, and maximize opportunities for learning and using the language.3. Goals and objectives of English language teachingThe new curriculum is designed to promote students’overall language ability, which is composed of five interrelated components, namely, language skills, language knowledge, affects, learning strategies and cultural understanding. Each component is further divided into a few sub-categories. Language teaching is no longer aimed only for developing language skills and knowledge, but expanded to developing learners’positive attitude, motivation, confidence as well as strategies for life-long learning along withThe standards for different levels of competence5 Challenges facing English language teachers1) English language teachers are expected to change their views about language which is not a system of linguistic knowledge but a means for communication.2) English language teachers are expected to change their traditional role of a knowledge transmitter to a multi-role educator.3) English language teachers are expected to use more task-based activities and put the students at the center of learning.4)English language teachers are expected to use more formative assessment in addition to using tests.5)English language teachers are expected to use modern technology in teaching, creating more effective resources for learning and for using the language.Unit 4 Lesson Planning1.Lesson planning means making decisions in advance about whattechniques, activities and materials will be used in the class.2. Why is lesson planning necessary?Proper lesson planning is essential for both novice/beginner and experienced teachers.3. Benefit from lesson planning in a number of ways1). A clear lesson plan makes the teacher aware of the aimsand language contents of the lesson.2). It also helps the teacher to distinguish the variousstages of a lesson and to see the relationship betweenthem so that the lesson can move smoothly from one stageto another.3). The teacher can also think about how the students canbe fully engaged in the lesson.4). when planning the lesson, the teacher also becomes awareof the teaching aids that are needed.5). Lesson planning helps teachers to think about therelative value of different activities and how much timeshould be spent on them.6). The teacher soon learn to judge lesson stages and phaseswith greater accuracy.7). Plans are also an aid to continuing improvement.8). After the lesson, the teacher can add an evaluation tothe plan, identifying those parts which went well andthose which were less successful.4. There are four major principles behind good lesson planning:1) variety,2) flexibility,,3) learnability,4) linkageDefinitions of variety, flexibility, learnability, andlinkage.Variety means planning a number of different types ofactivities and where possible introducing students to a wide selection of materials so that learning is always interesting, motivating and never monotonous for the students.Flexibility means planning to use a number of different methods and techniques rather than being a slave to one methodology. This will make teaching and learning more effective and more efficient.Learnability means the contents and tasks planned for the lesson should be within the learning capability of the students. Of course, things should not be too easy either. Doing things that are beyond or below the students' coping ability will diminish their motivation (Schumann, 1999). Linkage means the stages and the steps within each stage are planned in such a way that they are somehow linked with one another. Language learning needs recycling and reinforcement.5.Macro planning involves:1) Knowing about the profession:2) Knowing about the institution:3) Knowing about the learners:4) Knowing about the syllabus/curriculum:5) Knowing about the textbook6) Knowing about the objectivesponents of a lesson plan1.Background information: number of students/ ages/ grade/ genders/ the time and the date of the lesson/ the time duration of the lesson2.Teaching objectives: What do you want students to know and be able to do?nguage contents and skills: structures, vocabulary, functions, topics and so on; listening, speaking, reading and writing.4.Teaching stages and procedure: the major chunks of activities that teachers go through in a lesson. Procedures are the detailed steps in each teaching stage.1) Five-step teaching model(1)warm-up/ a tarter/revision;(2)presentation(3)drilling(4)consolidation(5)summary and homework2) The three P’s model: presentation, practice, and production5.Teaching aids: real objects/ flashcards/ wordcards/ worksheets/ wallcharts/ cassette tapes/ magazine pictures/ video, Multi-media, etc.6.End of lesson summary:Purposes of making a summary is to take learning further and deeper by helping the students to refer back to the learningobjectives; To create a sense of achievement and completion of tasks for the students. To develop with students a habit of reflection on learning;stimulate interest, curiosity and anticipation about the next phase of learning; help students draw out applications of what has been learned and highlight the important conceptions which have developed.7.Optional activities and assignment8.After class reflection7.The advantage of a concrete teaching plan:Teachers can follow it in the class and check what they have done;The plan will be the basis of a record of what has been covered in class;It will make it easier to make achievement tests later;It will be good records for the entire course.8. The aims of a lesson includelanguage components to present,communicative skills to practice,activitie s to conductmaterials to be usedteaching aids to be used.Unit 5 Classroom Managementthe goal of classroom management is to create an atmosphere conducive to (有助于)interacting in English in meaningful ways (Gebhard, 1996).2.Efficient classroom management can be achieved when the following six conditions are met.1.The teacher plays appropriate roles.2.The teacher provides clearer instructions.3.Students are grouped in a way suitable for the learning activities.4.There is discipline as well as harmony in the class.5.The teacher asks appropriate questions.6.The students’ errors are treated properly3 What roles does the teacher play?1.Controller (what to learn; how to learn)2.Assessor (correcting mistakes; organizing feedback)aniser (students’ activities)4.Prompter (when ss don’t know what to do…)5.Participant (in ss’ activities)environment, use various strategies to motivate learners, guide students in planning and assessing their learning…’prior knowledge; find individual interests and explore potential capabilities; acknowledge and respect individual differences; give each equal opportunity in learning; evaluate students’…reflect on the reasons, think about possible solutions, implement the solutions and evaluate the results…Controller: The teacher controls:1). the space (activities run smoothly),2) .the time (do lockstep activities)3. the whole class (Ss have equal chance)4. the production ( a degree of accuracy)Assessor: The teacher does two things:1). Correcting mistakes (not making a big fuss大惊小怪butgentle by Harmer)2). Organizing feedback (discouraging for the teacher to becritical不提倡吹毛疵, focusing on Ss’success progress)Organizer: The teacher should be important and difficult as it:1). Using creative/unlimited way2). Envisaging设想activities,3). Anticipating the problems4). Giving clear and concise instructions5). Demonstrating6 .Using native language to clarify if necessary7. Walking around and monitoring8. Rectifying订正9. Taking mental notes轮流惦记Prompter: The teacher should do:1). Giving hints (just like time, place…)2). Eliciting more (by saying”and…?”“Anything else?”Yes,but why…?(Ss. read the example)Participant:The teacher shouldn’t dominate or appear to be authoritative.Resource-provider:We have criticized the jug-and-mug method, but the teacher should withhold his/her readiness to provide resourc4 How to give effective classroom instructions?Classroom instructions refer to the type of language teachers use to organize or guide learning.1.To use simple instructions and make them suit the comprehension level ofthe students;2.To use the mother-tongue only when it is necessary;3.Give students time to get used to listening to English instructions;e body language to assist understanding;5.Model the task/activity before letting students into groups or pairs…6.Teachers are not expected to do all the talking in class.Tip: Demonstration is usually more effective than words.5. What are the different ways for student grouping?Whole class work, pair work, group work, individual study1.Whole class workAll the students are under the control of the teacher, doing the same activity at the same rhythm and pace.2.Pair workStudents work in pairs on an exercise or task.3.Group workStudents work in small groups of 3-5 students.4.Individual studyStudents work on their own at their own speed.Types of student grouping and their advantages and disadvantages in P314 (task4)6.Discipline in the language classroomQ: What does discipline mean?Discipline refers to a code of conduct which binds a teacher and a group of students together so that learning can be more effective. (78)7: How to maintain discipline?P.79Although discipline is often discussed together with classroom management, Classroom management skills are not sufficient if discipline is to be achieved,rather,a variety of teacher’s behavior contribute to discipline, such as the teacher’s choice of methodology, their interpersonal relationships with students, their preparation for the lesson. Beside, student’s motivation, which can be enhanced by the teacher action, is extremely important for discipline.When students are engaged in learning, they will be disciplined. (79)1.Ss are clear about learning purpose;2.Ss are able to do the work but find it challenging;3.Ss are emotionally, physically and intellectually involved by thetasks;4.The presentation, variety and structure of the work and activitiesgenerate curiosity and interest;5.Ss have opportunities to ask questions and try out ideas;6.Ss can see what they have achieved and how they had made progress;7.Ss get a feeling of satisfaction and enjoyment from the work.8What causes discipline problems?1.A gap in the lesson (e.g. bad planning, equipment fails to work)2.Unclear instructionsck of teacher attention4.The teacher concentrates on lengthy explanations to one individual so that the others get bored5.Work is too easy or too challenging9. What measures can we take for undisciplined acts and badly behavingstudents?☐Harmer (1983) p.811.Act immediately.2.Stop the class.3.Rearrange the seats.4.Change the activity.5.Talk to students after class.6.Create a code of behavior.⏹Ur’s (1996) advice1.Deal with it quietly.2.Don’t take things personally.3.Don’t use threats.10 How to make questioning more effective?☐Questions should be closely linked to the learning objectives in the lesson;☐Questions should be staged so that the level of challenge increases as the lesson proceeds;☐There should be a balance between closed and open, lower-order and higher-order questions;☐Wait time is important to allow students to think through their answers;☐Ss should be provided opportunities to ask their own questions and seek their own answers;☐ A secure and relaxed atmosphere of trust is needed and ss’ opinions and ideas are valued.11. What types of questions are there?(Classification of questions)1.Closed and open questions;2.Display and genuine questions;3.Lower-order and high-order questions;4.Bloom’s taxonomy分类系统(Nuttall, 1982)①Knowledge②Comprehension③Application④Analysis⑤Synthesis⑥Evaluation12: What are errors? How are they different from mistakes?☐ A mistake refers to “a performance error that is either a random guess or a ‘slip of tongue’, and it is a failure performance to a known system”(Brown, 2000: 218-219)☐An error has direct relation with the learner’s language competence.Errors do not result from carelessness nor hesitation, but lack of knowledge in the target language.☐ A mistake can be self-corrected; an error cannot be.13 When to correct errors?☐Generally, it is best not to interrupt students during fluency work unless communication breaks down.☐Let a trivial mistake pass if most of the language is right.☐For some common mistakes, take a note in mind first and correct after the student’s performance.14 How to correct errors?☐Different ways and techniques:⏹Direct teacher correction⏹Indirect teacher correction⏹Self-correction⏹Peer correction⏹Whole class correctionWhich techniques to use?☐As a general rule, indirect teacher correction is encouraged rather than direct ones to avoid damaging ss’self-esteem and confidence.☐In practice, self-correction is encouraged before teacher correction or peer correction, esp. for mistakes.☐The whole class correction is used for main error types (e.g.The Big Ten)Unit 6 Teaching Pronunciation1.Critical Period Hypothesis:a biologically determined period of life when language can be acquired more easily and beyond which time language is increasing difficult to acquire.2. The goal of teaching pronunciationThe goal of teaching pronunciation is not to teach learners to achieve a perfect imitation of a native accent, but simply to get the learners to pronounce accurately enough to be easily and comfortably comprehensible to other speakers.3The realistic goals of teaching pronunciation is as following: Consistency: the pronunciation should be smooth and natural; Intelligibility: the pronunciation should be understandable to the listeners;Communicative efficiency: the pronunciation should help convey the meaning that is intended by the speaker.4.Three aspects of pronunciation to teach? Stress, intonation, rhythm5. One common problem in learning English of Ss: (Neglect stress and intonation)6. What aspects of pronunciation do we need to teach? Pronunciation is an umbrella term covering many aspects, beside sound andphone symbols, such as stress, intonation, and rhythm, of course ,these aspects are not isolated from each other, rather, they are interrelated.7. How to achieve good pronunciation?☐Practice makes perfect☐Both mechanical practice and meaningful practice are beneficial.8 Practising sounds(List some methods of practicing sounds. )Mechanical drilling is boring and demotivating; it is important to combine drilling pronunciation exercises with more meaningful exercises that focus on whatever aspect of pronunciation is the focus of the lesson.Focus on a soundFocus on a individual sounds especially those sound that are difficult to learnPerception practice☐What is the goal of perception practice?⏹Developing the students’ability to identify and distinguishbetween different sounds.☐Examples of perception practice:⏹Using minimal pairs(with one sound difference): will/well;ship/sheep; light/night⏹Which order: bear, tear, ear⏹Same or different? [met], [mi:t]⏹Odd one out⏹Completion9.The goal of production practice is developing students’ ability toproduce sounds.1.Listen and repeat ( practice individual sounds, individual words,groups of words, sentences (mechanical imitation)2.Fill in the blanks (in sentences with words which contain certainsounds).3.Make up sentences(using as many from the given words as possible).e meaningful context(to perform meaningful tasks such asrole-play).e pictures (to produce meaningful language).e tongue twisters (to practice pronunciation).10. Practising stress and intonation☐Two types of stress:⏹word-level stress⏹Phrase-level or sentence-level stress11. Teaching methods of stress⏹The most important thing in practising stress is making thestudents aware of where to stress the words or phrases.e gestures (e.g. clapping hands; using arm movements)e the voice (raise the voice to indicate stress)e the blackboard(underline the stress parts or write with coloredchalks12 Practicing intonation (How to practise intonation?)⏹Use hand or arm movement to indicate change of intonation.⏹Use rising or falling arrows to mark intonation.⏹Draw lines to mark change of intonation.13.How can teachers help the students to improve pronunciation?e individual, pair, group and whole class work;e hands and arms to conduct practice.3.Move around the classroom when doing choral practice.4.Vary the criteria of ‘good’ to give students confidence.5.Do articulation practice more than once.6.Bring interests and variety to the practice.7.The main criteria for good pronunciation are consistency,intelligibility and communicative efficiency.8.Make full use of demonstrations.9.Try to use visual aids.Unit 7 Teaching Grammar1. The role of grammar in language learningIt is generally believed that•Grammar teaching is less important for children than for adults; •Grammar teaching is less important in listening and reading than in writing.•Grammar teaching can be seen in most formal classroom language teaching. Generally speaking, Chinese EFL learners need a certain degree of mastery of English grammar. However, it should be noted that learning grammar itself is not the ultimate goal of learning English.2 Grammar presentationWhat are the major types of grammar presentation method?☐Three ways of presenting grammar in the classroom:1.The deductive method 演绎法reasoning from general principles to aparticular caseThe deductive method relies on reasoning, analyzing and comparing2.The inductive method 归纳法method of logical reasoning which obtains ordiscovers general laws from particular facts or examples3.The guided discovery method 引导式发现法Similar to the inductive method in that ss are induced to discover rules by themselves;But different in that the process of the discovery is carefully guided and assisted by the teachers and the rules are then elicited and taught explicitly.Each has merits and drawbacks. The best way is to vary methods in different。

Teaching grammarGrammar teaching depends on certain variables(learner and instructional ) in the language teaching/learning contextGrammar presentation methods-deductive method: relies on reasoning, analyzing and comparingteaching procedure:teacher’s example on the board,teacher’s explanation of the rules (in student’s native language),student’s practice application of the :good for selected and motivate students;save time to explain complex rules;increase students’ confidence in :grammar is taught iso latedly;little attention is paid to meaning;the practice is often mechanical-inductive method:teaching procedure;authentic language presentation(give grammar examples);let students observe,analyse,compare examples;help students induct grammar rules,Advant ages:inspire students’ thinking activities;motivate students’ learning interests;grammar is taught in :the presentation of grammar is more complex and time consumption;grammar is not taught directly;some rules can not be induced easily-guided discovery method: Similar to the inductive method:the students are induced to discover rules by themselves (similar);the process of the discovery is carefully guided and assisted by the teacher and the rules are then elicited and taught explicitly.(different)Implicit and explicit knowledge:Implicit knowledge refers to knowledge that unconsciously exists in our mind, which we can make use of automatically without making any effort;Explicit knowledge refers to our conscious knowledge about the language. We can talk about it, analyse it and apply it in conscious and acquiring (second language acquisition theory)The synthesis approaches to grammatical pedagogy:Collocational: grammar should be built on collocational relations between individual lexical items and their subcategories.Constructive: one’s knowledge of grammar is built bit by bit, which closely model the way language is learned and used.Contextual: Elements and structures are taught in relation to their context. Syntactic and lexical choices are explicitly related to pragmatic ones, and to social and cultural contexts.Contrastive: grammar involves drawing the learner’s attention to contrast the differences between the target language and other language.Grammar practice:Pre-learning;Volume and repetition: .Teacherpractice:activities that are aimed at form doing mechanical practice,students pay repeated attention to a key element in a of practice:Substitution and transformation drills2. Meaningful practice the focus is on the production, comprehension or exchange of meaning though the students “keep an eye on” the way newly learned structures are used in the process.prompts for practice:The prompts can be pictures, mimes, tables, charts or key words, etc.A good presentation should include both oral and written and form and meaning Visual materials can aid comprehensionIt’s the teacher’s involvement and his or her ability to personalise teaching and make activities engaging that often promotes successful learning.Teaching vocabularyThe first question need to know is what does knowing a word involve.A word:knowing its pronunciation and stress; spelling and grammatical properties; meaning; how and when to use it to express the intended meaning (freestanding and bound morphine)Vocabulary learning involves ate least two aspects of meaning: the understanding of its denotative and connotative meaning; and understanding the sense relations among wordsDenotative meaning of a word or a lexical item refers to those words that we use to label things as regards real objectsConnotative meaning of a word refers to ‘the attitudes or emotions of a language user in choosing a word and the influence of these on the listener or reader’s interpretation of the word. This words that may express a positive or negative attitude or subtle feelings toward something. Collocations refers to words that co-occur with high frequency and have been accepted as ways for the use of words. It is believed that teaching word collocations is a more effective way than just teaching one single word at a time. Synonyms refer to items that mean the same, or nearly the refer to items that mean the opposite of a word. Hyponyms refer to words which can be grouped together under the same superordinate conceptReceptive and Productive vocabularyPassive vocabulary: the words they vocabulary: the words they useSo the job for the teacher is to guide the students to those words which will help them to add to their active vocabularies, and to distinguish those words from the much larger number of passive items. At the beginning of language learning, all the words which are taught must be acquired for active use, later, at intermediate and advanced levels, most of the words students meet will only be needed for passive use.Ways of consolidating vocabulary:labelling,spot the difference,descibe and draw,play a game,use word series,word bingo,word association,find a synonyms and antonym,categories,using word net-work,using the Internet resources for some ideasDeveloping vocabulary building strategies:review regularly,guess meaning from context, Organize vocabulary effectively,using a dictionary,manage strategy useTeaching listeningListening problems:lack of teaching materials,both with print materials and audio or video tapes,lack of equipment in some schools;lack of real-life situations:lack of professional qualified instructors A number of people have frequently made the point that of the total time an individual is engaged in communication: approximately 9% is devoted to writing, 16% to reading, 30% to speaking,45% to listeningListening and reading are receptive skills, but listening can be more difficult than reading.Different speakers produce the same sounds in different waysThe listener has little or no control over the speed of the input of spoken material;Spoken material is often heard only once and in most cases,we cannot go back and listen again as we can when we read;The listener cannot pause to work out the meaning of the heard material as can be done when reading;Speech is more likely to be distorted by the media which transmit sounds or background noise that can make it difficult to hear clearly;The listener sometimes has to deal simultaneously with another task while listening, such as formal note-taking, writing down directions or messages from telephone calls, or operating while listening to instructions.

1. Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.2. Structural View : It sees language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystem : from phonological, morphological, lexical, etc. to sentence . Each language has a finite number of such structural items. To learn a language means to learn these structural items so as to be able to understand and produce language .when this structural view of language was combined with the stimulus-response principles of behaviouristic psychology, the audiolingual approach to language learning emerged.3. F unctional View :It sees language as a linguistic system but also as a means for doing things. Functional activities : offering , suggesting , advising, apologizing, etc. To perform functions , learners need to know how to combine the grammatical rules and the vocabulary to express notions that perform the functions. For example : the concept of present, past or future time ,the expression of certainty and possibility , the role of agent4. Interactional View Language is a communicative tool , the use of which is to build up and maintain social relations between people. Learners not only need to know the grammar and vocabulary of the language , but also need to know the rules for using them in a whole range of communicative context.Language learning process-oriented theoriesHow the mind processes new information, such as habit formation, induction, making inference, hypothesis testing and generalization.Condition-oriented theoriesemphasize the nature of the human and physical context in which language learning takes place such as the number of students, what kind of input learners receive, and the learning atmosphere.Behaviourist theory : stimulus, response, reinforcement.Proposed by behavioural psychologist Skinner, he suggested that language is also a form of nguage can be learned the same way as an animal is trained to respond to stimuli. This theory of learning is referred to as behaviourism.One influential result is the audio-lingual method, which involves the “listen and repeat ” drilling activities. The idea of this method: language is learned by constant repetition and the reinforcement of the teacher. Mistakes are immediately corrected, and correct utterances are immediately praisedCognitive theory :The term cognitivism is often used to describe method in which students are asked to think rather than simply repeat.Noam Chomsky’ question:If all language is a learned behaviour, how can a child produce a sentence that has never been said by others before?Language is not a form of behaviour, it is an intricate复杂的rule-based system and a large part of language acquisition获得is the learning of this system. There are a finite 有限的number of grammatical rules in the system and with a knowledge of these rules an infinite number of sentences can be produced .Constructivist theory: 建构理论The constructivist theory believes that learning is a process in which the learner constructs meaning based on his/her own experiences and what he/she already knows.It is believed that education is used to develop the mind, not just to rote recall what is learned. Therefore, teachers must balance an understanding of the habits, characteristics as well aspersonaliti es of individual learners with an understanding of the means of arousing learners’ interests and curiosity for learning.Socio-constructivist theory:similar to constructivist theory, social-constructivist theory emphasizes interaction and engagement with the target language in a social context based on the concept of “Zone 地区、地带of Proximal邻近的Development”(ZPD) 临近发展区and scaffolding. ['skæfəldiŋ] n. 脚手架;搭脚手架的材料In other words, learning is best achieved through the dynamic interaction between the teacher and the learner and between learners.Chapter 2Communicative competence includes the knowledge about the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situation.Five main components of communicative competence(Hedge)Linguistic competenceIt is concerned with knowledge of the language itself, its form and meaning.More specifically, it involves spelling, pronunciation, vocabulary, word formation,grammatical structure, sentence structure, and semantics.Pragmatic competencePragmatic competence is concerned with the appropriate use of language in social context ( when to speak, when not, when talk about with whom, when,where and in what manner).That is to say, the choice of the language of the vocabulary and the structure depends on the setting, the relative status of the speakers, and their relationships.Discourse competenceIt refers to one's ability to create coherent written text or conversation and the ability tounderstand them. In other words, it is o ne’s ability to express or to understand a topiclogically and coherently by effective employing or comprehending the cohesive markers used in the discourse such as' to put in other words', at last' . etc in the context.It also include one’s ability to i nitiate开始, develop, enter, interrupt, check, or confirm in a conversation.Strategic competenceIt refers to strategies one employs when there is communication breakdown due to lack of resources. One can compensate 补偿,抵消for this by searching for other means ofexpression, such as using a similar phase, using gestures, or using a longer explanation. In this way, they can keep the conversation going and possibly get input from the other end. FluencyIt means one's ability to 'link units of speech together with facility设施;设备and without strain or inappropriate slowness or undue hesitation' (hedge, 2000:54)Fluency is achieved largely by combining chunks, reducing processing difficulty. Some examples: in my opinion, to make a long story short, generally speaking…4. Principles of Communicative Language TeachingRichard and Rodgers:1) Communication principle: Activities that involve real communication promote learning.2) Task principle: Activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful taskspromote learning.3) Meaningfulness principle: Language that is meaningful to the learner supports the learningprocess.Six criteria for evaluating how communicative classroom activities are:⏹Communicative purpose:The activity must involve the students in performing a real communicative purpose rather than just practicing language for its own sake.In order for this to occur, there must be some kind of 'information gap' that students seek to bridge when they are communicating. Communicative desire:The activity must create a desire to communicate in the students. That is , even ifcommunication is focused on the students, they must feel a real need to communicate.⏹No materials control:The activity should not be designed to control what language the students should use. The choice about what language to use should rest with the students.No teacher intervention:The activity must be designed to be done by the students working by themselves rather than with the teacher. The activity should not involve the teacher correcting or evaluating how the students do the activity, although it could involve some evaluation of the final 'product' of the activity when the activity is over. This assessment should be based onwhether the students have achieved their communicative purpose, not whether the language they used was correct.Content, not form:When the students are doing the activity, they must be concentrating on what they are saying, not how they say it. They must have some 'message' that they want to communicate.⏹Variety of language:The activity must involve the students in using a variety of language, not just one specific language form. The students should feel free to improvise即兴创作, using whatever resources they choose. Chapter 3Why is lesson planning important?⏹Lesson planning means making decisions in advance about what techniques, activities andmaterials will be used in the class.⏹Although the main teaching contents may be the same, the students are different, the time isdifferent, and the mood is different.Language teachers benefit from lesson planning in:1) understanding the aims and language contents of the lesson;2) distinguishing the various stages of a lesson;3) thinking about how the students can be fully engaged in the lesson;4) becoming aware of the teaching aids that are needed.5) thinking about the relative value of different activities and how much time should be spenton them.II. Principles for good lesson planning⏹Aim: the realistic goals for the lesson.the teacher need to have a clear idea of what he wouldlike to achieve for the class(the things students are able to do by the end of the class.⏹Variety: different types of activities and a wide selection of materials.,interesting, motivate ⏹Flexibility: extra and alternative tasks and activities, as the class does not go according tothe plan so that teachers have the options to cope with the unexpected situations Learnability: the contents and tasks should be within the learning capability of the students.⏹Linkage: the stages and steps are always liked with one another.What’s Macro planning?⏹Macro planning is for over a longer period of time: a whole programme or a whole-yearscourse.What’s Macro planning?⏹Macro planning involves the following:❑Knowing about the profession : what to teach❑Knowing about the institution: time arrangement, facilities, requirements, etc.❑Knowing about the learners; Knowing about the syllabus (curriculum)❑Know about the textbook. Know about the objectives.What’s micro planning?Micro planning is usually for a special lesson. it’s often called lesson planning.III. Components of a lesson planA good lesson plan can serve as a useful record of what has been covered, and provide abasis for assessing learning by the end of a unit or term.A language lesson plan usually has the following component:⏹Background information: the detail information of students: age, grade, level of English,etc.⏹Teaching aims (objectives):⏹Learners’ performance rather than the teachers’⏹From purely linguistic to an emphasis on language skills, knowledge, affects,strategies and culture awareness in order to lay a good foundation for continuingdevelopmentContents: structures, vocabulary, functions, topics and so on;Skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing.Stages and procedures⏹Teaching stages: the major chunks of activities that teachers go through in a lesson.⏹Procedures: detailed steps in each teaching stage.Teaching procedures:⏹1) warm up/ revision; 2) presentation; 3) activities/ practice 4) consolidation⏹5) summary and homeworkTeaching aids: aids or resources End of lesson summary Optional activities⏹After lesson reflectionChapter 5Teachers’ role;controller: control the pace so that the activities run smoothly and efficiently. Assessor: correcting mistakes and organising feedback:organiser:design and organise tasks that students can perform in the class. Give instruction clearly and concisely. Prompter: when students are not sure how to start an activity ,or what to do next the teacher should give appropriate prompts. Participant in the students’ activities resource-provider facilitators: Need to create a positive learning environment use various strategies to motivate learners... Guides :activate ss prior knowledge, find ss interest, explore potential capabilities researcher: sensitive to ss need and keep on improving their teaching and ss learning on the basis of research the classroom.Chapter 6I. The importance of teaching pronunciation*communicate. language teachers to have a good pronunciation.A good pronunciation means:*to pronounce correctly all the speech sounds of the language and all the combinationsin their proper order not only isolated words, but also in sentences;*to pronounce sentences fluently at the speed required by the situation with correct stresses, linking of sounds, rhythm, pauses and intonation.*As a matter of fact, most Chinese learners of English do not have enough exposure to English to acquire native-like pronunciation.2. Critical period hypothesis*Critical period hypothesis: if humans do not learn a foreign language before a certain age, then due to changes such as maturation of the brain and speech organs, it seems impossible to learn the foreign language like a native speaker.3. The realistic goal of teaching Pronunciation.*Consistency: (连贯性)The pronunciation should be smooth and natural.*Intelligibility:(可理解性) The pronunciation should be understandable to the listeners.*Communicative efficiency: The pronunciation should help to convey the meaning that is intended by the speaker.IV. Practising sounds 1. Focusing on a sound*When teaching pronunciation, we need to focus on individual sounds, especially those sounds that are difficult to learn.* 2. Perception practice(理解练习) Distinguish sounds*Using minimal pairs: 2 Which order: 3 Same or different:*Odd man out:(找出一个与众不同的) Completion3. Production practice*Listen and repeat:Fill in the blanks: Make up sentences: Use meaningful context:*Use pictures:keep an eye on particular sound Use tongue twisters.4. The presentation of teaching pronunciation.1) To introduce the sound 2) Imitation, description and comparison and contrast.3) Familiarization4) ProductionV. practicing stress and intonation1. practicing stress.*Two kinds of stress:1. rising tone, falling tone 2.word-level stress; phrase-level stress.*Three ways of showing the stress pattern:*Use gestures. Clapping hands or using arm movements*Use the voice. raise the voice to indicate stress.*Use the blackboard. Underlining them or writing them with coloured chalks*Gestures. The teacher may do any of the followings to indicate the stress patterns.1)Thump重击the air when saying the stressed syllable. "Good 'morning!“2)Make a downward stroke(划)of the hand-marking the "beat" like orchestraconductor. e.g3) punch the palm of his other hand4)clap his hands. e.g. im'portant5)bang his hand against something, such as desk or the blackboard.2. Practising intonation*The most successful technique for teaching intonation is imitation or mimicry.*Linear(划线) intonation marking is a memorial device in itself.。
英语教学法复习要点
英语教学法复习要点1.Structural view on language:The structural view of language sees language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystems: the sound system(phonology);the discrete units of meaning produced by sound combinations(morphology), and the system of combining units of meaning for communication(syntax). Each language has a finite number of such structural items. To learn a language means to learn these structural items so as to be able to understand and produce language. When this structural view of language was combined with the stimulus-response principles of behavioristic psychology, the audiolingual approach to language learning emerged.2.Interactional view on language:The interactional view considers language to be a communicative tool, whose main use is to build up and maintain social relations between people. Therefore, learners not only need to know the grammar and vocabulary of the language but as importantly they need to know the rules for using them in a whole range of communicative contexts.municative competence:The goal of CLT is to develop students' communicative competence, which includes boththe knowledge about the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situations.There are five main components of communicative competence: linguistic competence, pragmatic competence, discourse competence, strategic competence, fluency4.Task in English language teaching:Task-based Language Teaching is a further development of Communicative Language Teaching. It shares the same beliefs,,as language should be learned as close as possible to how it is used in real life. However, it has stressed the importance to combine form-focused teaching with communicative-focused teaching.5.Overall language ability:• Learning:cognitive; self management; communication; resourcing•Language learning: listening; speaking; reading; writing • Language: phonetics; grammar; vocabulary; functions; topics• Cultural: knowledge; understanding; awareness• Affect: international; perspectives; patriotism; confidence; motivationponents of a lesson plan:background information; teaching aims; language contents and skills; stages and procedures; teaching aids; end of lesson summary; optional activities and assignments; after-lesson reflection.7.The role of the teacher:controller, assessor, organizer, prompter, participant, resource-provider, facilitators, guides, researchers8.Errors and mistakes:a mistake has nothing to do with the language competence, but a result from a temporary breakdown. When a mistake is challenged or given enough attention, it can be self-corrected. An error has direct relation with the learners' language competence. Errors do not result from carelessness nor hesitation, but lack of knowledge in the target language. Language errors cannot be self-corrected no matter how much attention is given. 9.The goal of teaching pronunciation:Consistency: the pronunciation should be smooth and natural; Intelligibility: the pronunciation should be understandable to the listeners; Communicative efficiency: the pronunciation should help convey the meaning that is intended by the speaker.10.Principles for teaching speaking:balancingaccuracy-based with fluency-based practices; contextualising practice; personalising practice; building up confidence; maximising meaningful interactions; helping students develop speaking strategies; making the best use of classroom learning environment to provide sufficient language input and practice for the students.11.Mechanical practice:involves activities that are aimed at form accuracy. By doing mechanical practice, the students pay repeated attention to a key element in a structure. Substitution and transformation drills are most frequently used in mechanical practice.12.Meaningful practice:in meaningful practice, the focus is on the production, comprehension or exchange of meaning though the students 'keep an eye on' the way newly learned structures are used in to process. Meaningful practice usually comes after mechanical practice.13.The deductive method:relies on reasoning, analyzing and comparing. Frist, the teacher writes an example on the board or draws attention to an example in the textbook. Then the teacher explains the underlying rules regarding the forms and positions of certain structural terms. Sometimes,comparisons are made between the native language and the target language or between the newly presented structure and previously learned structure. Finally, the students practice applying the rule to produce sentences with given prompts.14.Guided discovery method:The guided discovery method is similar to the inductive method in that the students are induced to discover rules by themselves but different in that the process of the discovery is carefully guided and assisted by the teacher and the rules are then elicited and taught explicitly. There are two key theoretical issues related to this method: the role of explicit knowledge in language learning and the value of discovery as a general method of learning.15.Knowing a word:Knowing a word means knowing its pronunciation and stress; its spelling and grammatical properties; its meaning; how and when to use it to express the intended meaning.16.Vocabulary consolidation activities:labelling; spot the difference; describe and draw; play a game; use word series; word bingo; word association; find synonyms and antonyms; categories; using word net-work17.Connotative meaning of a word:A connotative meaning ofa word refers to 'the attitudes or emotions of a language user in choosing a word and the influence of these on the listener or reader's interpretation of the word. These would include words that may express a positive or negative attitude or subtle feelings towards something.18.Denotative meaning of a word:Denotative meaning of a word of a lexical item refers to those words that we use to label things as regards real objects, such as a name or a sigh, etc. in the physical world. This is usually the primary meaning of a word and may seem relatively easy to learn.19.Vocabulary learning strategies:review regularly, guess meaning from context, organize vocabulary effectively, usea dictionary, manage strategy use20. Top-down model of listening:In the top-down model, listening for gist and making use of the contextual clues and background knowledge to construct meaning are emphasized.21.Bottom-up model of listening:In the bottom-up model, listening comprehension is believed to start with sound and meaning recognitions. In other word, 'we use information in the speech itself to try to comprehend the meaning'.Listeners construct meaning of what they hear based on the sound they hear. This process of listening expects the listener to have a very effective short-term memory as they have to make sense of every sound in order to figure out the meaning of words, phrases and structures. If there are unfamiliar sounds, listeners will find it very hard to keep up with the speaker.22.Sight vocabulary:Words that one is able to recognise immediately are often referred to as sight vocabulary. In other words, your sight vocabulary will be those words that you can recognise with both sounds and meanings without special effort from your brain.23.Interactive model for teaching reading:24.The transition device:The way to transfer information from one form to another is called a transition device. Some transition devices that are often used in teaching reading are: pictures, drawings, maps, tables, tree diagrams, cyclic diagrams, pie charts, bar charts, flowcharts, chronological sequence, subtitles and notes. Most of the transition devices listed above make use of visual aids so that information in text form is visualized.The purpose of transition device:•Focus attention on the main meaning of the text;•Be able to simplify sophisticated input so that it becomes the basis for output;•Allow students to perform tasks while they are reading;•Highlight the main structural organization of a text/part of a text, and show how the structure relates to meaning; •Involve all the students in clearly defined reading tasks;•Precede one step at a time;•When a TD is completed, use it as a basis for further oral and/or written language practice.25.A communicative approach to writing:It acknowledges that mechanical writing activities do not by themselves motivate students. To motivate students, it is necessary to engage them in some act of communication. This means either writing for a specific recipient, or engaging in an act of creative writing where their work is intended to be read by other people, in other words, an intended audience. In short, students can be motivated by authentic writing tasks that have some communicative elements.26.The process approach to writing:creating a motivation to write, brainstorming, mapping, freewriting, outlining, drafting, editing, revising, proofreading, conferencing。

The input should be a little beyond the learner’s present language level.3.The affective filter hypothesisAffective factors such as interest, motivation, attitude, anxiety, self-image,self-concept, self-esteem and so on affect the result of language learning like a filter.

英语教学法期末知识点总结
英语教学法期末知识点总结As the semester comes to an end, it is essential to reflect on the knowledge gained in the field of English teaching methodology. This summary aims to cover the main concepts, techniques, and approaches that have been studied throughout the semester, and to highlight their significance in the teaching and learning process.1. Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) has been one of the central themes in our study of English teaching methodology. This approach emphasizes the importance of communication and interaction in language learning. It focuses on real-life situations and the use of authentic language, aiming to develop students' communicative competence. CLT encourages students to engage in meaningful communication, and to use the language in a natural and authentic way.In the context of CLT, teachers play the role of facilitators, creating opportunities for students to communicate and providing them with the necessary support and feedback. The use of activities such as role-plays, discussions, and group work is a key feature of CLT, as they enable students to practice their language skills in a meaningful and interactive way.2. Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT)Task-based Language Teaching (TBLT) is another important aspect of English teaching methodology that we have explored. TBLT focuses on the use of tasks as the central unit of language teaching. Tasks are activities that require students to use language to achieve a specific goal or purpose. They can be based on real-world situations, and they often involve problem-solving and decision-making.TBLT emphasizes the importance of meaningful language use, and it aims to develop students' ability to communicate effectively in a variety of contexts. Tasks are designed to be challenging and engaging, and they provide students with opportunities to use the language in a purposeful and communicative way. TBLT also encourages the use of authentic materials and resources, as they can help students develop their language skills ina meaningful and realistic way.3. Differentiated InstructionDifferentiated instruction is an important concept in English teaching methodology, as it emphasizes the need to tailor instruction to meet the diverse needs of students. It recognizes that students have different learning styles, abilities, and preferences, and it aims to provide them with the support and resources they need to succeed.In the context of English teaching, differentiated instruction can involve the use of varied instructional strategies, materials, and activities to accommodate the different needs of students. It can also involve the use of flexible grouping, where students are groupedaccording to their learning needs and preferences. By differentiating instruction, teachers can ensure that all students have the opportunity to learn and succeed, regardless of their individual differences.4. The Use of Technology in English TeachingThe use of technology has become an integral part of English teaching methodology. Technology can provide students with access to a wide range of resources and materials, and it can also enhance their learning experiences. In the context of English teaching, technology can be used to provide students with opportunities for independent practice, to facilitate communication and collaboration, and to provide access to authentic language use. In recent years, the use of technology in English teaching has expanded to include a wide range of tools and resources, including interactive whiteboards, multimedia resources, and online learning platforms. These technologies can provide students with engaging and interactive learning experiences, and they can also provide teachers with valuable resources for instruction and assessment.5. Assessment and Evaluation in English TeachingAssessment and evaluation are important components of English teaching methodology. They are essential for monitoring students' progress, providing feedback, and informing instructional decisions. In the context of English teaching, assessment can take many forms, including traditional tests and quizzes, as well as performance-based assessments and portfolios.In recent years, there has been an increasing emphasis on the use of authentic assessment in English teaching. Authentic assessment focuses on the assessment of real-life language use, and it aims to provide a more accurate and meaningful measure of students' language proficiency. Authentic assessment can include tasks and projects that require students to use the language in a purposeful and meaningful way, and it can provide a more accurate measure of students' ability to communicate effectively.In conclusion, the knowledge gained in the field of English teaching methodology has been extensive and diverse. The concepts, techniques, and approaches covered in this summary represent the key components of effective English teaching, and they highlight the importance of communicative, task-based, and differentiated instruction, the use of technology, and authentic assessment and evaluation in the teaching and learning process. By implementing these principles in the classroom, teachers can create engaging and effective learning experiences for their students, and they can help students develop the language skills they need to succeed in the real world.。

Now they’re beginning to fill in the blanks.Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly at night? Tests with artificial stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the star in their long-distance flights.One such bird---a warbler(鸣禽)---had spent its lifetime in a cage and never flown under the natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the make-believe stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.Scientists think that warbler, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation. What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds? Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river courses. But when it’s too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, unable to get their bearings.1. The reason why birds don’t get lost in migratory flights( B )A. have been known to scientists for years .B. have only recently been discovered.C. are known by everyone.D. will probably remain a mystery.2. The experiment with the warbler indicated that( D )A. birds have to be taught to navigate.B. a bird that has been caged will not migrate.C. some birds cannot fly at night.D. some birds seem instinctively to follow the star when flying at night.( D )3. Under artificial stars, the bird in the cageA. tried to fly in the same direction as birds not caged .B. changed direction when the position of the stars was changed.C. would not fly at all.D. both A and B.4. Warblers migrate( C )A. from North American to the Falkland Islands.B. only once during their lifetime.C. using what is apparently an inborn navigational ability.D. when they are freed from their cages.5. This article is a good example of the way scientists( B )A. jump to conclusion.B. discover workable answers to general questions by studying particular cases.C. formulate a law and then carry out investigation.D. are frustrated by the habits of animals.1. In the night sky you might see a big white ball. This is the moon. The moon moves around the earth. It does this one time about every 291/2 days. It is smaller than the stars. But it looks bigger. That’s because it is closer to us than the stars.Sometimes the moon looks like a ball of light. Other times it looks only part of a ball. But it is really always the same. The moon’s light comes from the sun. Sometimes one part is l ighted. Other times another part is lighted. We see only the part of the moon that is lighted.The moon has no air, no wind, and no water. So nothing can live there. There are no plants or animals. It is made up mostly of rock. There are big holes all over the moon. Sometimes you can see dark places on the moon. It is really these holes that you are seeing.Let’s say you were standing on the moon and you looked up. The sky would be black. It always looks like night. And the stars in it are always out. In the day the rocks on the moon get very hot. At night they are colder than any place on the earth.People have always liked to look at the moon. In it they have seen many things. Some think they see people. Others see animals. One person might see a frog or a cat. Another might see a rabbit. Look up at the moon tonight. What do you see?1. According to the passage we know that the moon B .A. is bigger than the stars, but looks smallerB. looks smaller because it is closer to us than the starsC. is smaller than the stars, but looks biggerD. looks bigger because it is farther to us than the stars2. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage C .A. The light from the sun sometimes lights only one part of the moon.B. People could see dark holes al over the moon.C. Nothing could live on the noon except animals because it is made up of rock.D. No life could be seen on the moon without air and water on it.3. From the passage we can infer that D .A. the difference between day temperature and night temperature on the moon is very bigB. people could not stand on the moon because it is very hot in the dayC. people could not stand on the moon because it is too cold at nightD. it’s impossible for people to live on the moon because there is no food there4. The author implies that the reason why people like to look at the moon is that C .A. they believe there are really people on the moonB. they think some animals are living on the moonC. they care for the frogs, cats and rabbits on the moonD. the moon can give them many imaginations5. The purpose of the writer in writing this passage is to A .A. tell us something about the moonB. require us to distinguish the moon and the starsC. emphasize the importance of the moonD. state the relationship between people and the moon2. During one summer not long ago, Americans in the Southwest were without rain for many days. The sun burned up crops. Animals went hungry on the dry land. At last, clouds appeared in the sky and sent down rain.How do such clouds form? The sun, the earth, and the air all play a part. The changes that take place before clouds can form do not always happen quickly. First, the earth is heated by the sun. This causes tiny drops of water in oceans and rivers to rise and mix with air. As the wet air rises higher, it cools off, making clouds.What causes these clouds to become rain? The tiny drops of water inside the clouds become larger as they gather more wetness from the air around them. Finally, the drops become so large that they can no longer be held up by the air. They fall to the ground as rain.The raindrops that fall are not always the same size. Some may be very large. But the smallest come down in a fine mist.Rain is needed for all life. When it falls after a long dry spell, trees, grass, and bushes may begin to look fresh and green again. These plants need water to stay healthy. The rain also causes streams to fill with water. This makes it possible for fish and other animals to live. Rain brings new life and hope to millions of people and other living things.1. The first paragraph mentions the period of time during which the weather wa s very and crops were D .A. rainy, burntB. drought, burnt upC. drought, burntD. dry, burnt up2. The phrase “play a part” means D .A. be a roleB. form as a partC. connect with each otherD. make a contribution3. Concerning how rain comes into being, which statement is true? D .A. A lot of drops of water rise and mix with air as the sun shines.B. Wet air cools off as it rises higher.C. The drops become larger and larger as they gather more wetness.D. The drops fall to the ground as they become too large to hold up.4. In the last paragraph, the word “spell” means C .A. weatherB. a periodC. timesD. none of the above5. This passage mainly explains B of clouds and rain.A. the formationB. the phenomenaC. the importanceD. the function83. Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on the street. No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn’t it matter? What about table manners? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Should you leave one on your lap, or on the table?The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meeteach other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o’clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable, especially if they are your guests. There is an old story about a man who gave a formal dinner party. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.1. If one has accepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is to be late for the dinner?( D )A. He should find an excuse.B. He should ask for excuse.C. He should say “Sorry”.D. He should telephone to explain his being late.2. “It would have been bad manners to make his guests feel foolish or uncomfortable.” “Bad manners: means ( C )A. uglyB. dishonestC. impoliteD. shameful3. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?( A )A. Social Customs and BehaviorB. Social lifeC. American and British CustomsD. Promptness Is Important4. According to the text, the best host ( A )A. tries his best to make his guests feel comfortableB. makes his guests feel excitedC. tries to avoid being naughty to his guestsD. tries to avoid being foolish5. The author of this article may agree with which of the following?( C )A. The guest who ate his peas with a knife.B. The other guests who were amused or shocked.C.

EnglishTeaching英语教学法教程期末考试必考的知识点
Teaching grammarGrammar teaching depends on certain variables(learner and ins t ructional ) in the language teaching/learning context Grammar presentation methods-deductive method: relies on reasoning, analyzing and comparingteaching procedure:teacher’s example on the board,teacher’s explanation of the rules (in student’s native language),student’s practice application of the rules.Advantages:good for selected and motivate students;save time to explain complex rules;increase stude nts’ confidence in examination.Disadvantages:grammar is taught isolated ly;little attention is paid to meaning;the practice is often mechanical -inductive method:teaching procedure;authentic language presentation(give grammar examples);let students observe,analyse,compare examples;help students induct grammar rules,Advantages:inspire students’ thinking activities;motivate students’ learning interests;grammar is taught in context.Disadvantages:the presentation of grammar is more complex and time consumption;grammar is not taught directly;some rules can not be induced easily-guided discovery method: Similar to the inductive method:the students are induced to discover rules by themselves (similar);the process of the discovery is carefully guided and assisted by the teacher and the rules are then elicited and taught explicitly.(different) Implicit and explicit knowledge:Implicit knowledge refers to knowledge that unconsciously exists in our mind, which we can make use of automatically without making any effort;Explicit knowledge refers to our conscious knowledge about the language. We can talk about it, analyse it and apply it in conscious ways.Learning and acquiring (second language acquisition theory)The synthesis approaches to grammatical pedagogy:Collocational: grammar should be built on collocational relations between individual lexical items and their subcategories. Constructive: one’s knowledge of grammar is built bit by bit, which closely model the way language is learned and used. Contextual: Elements and structures are taught in relation to their context. Syntactic and lexical choices are explicitly related to pragmatic ones, and to social and cultural contexts.Contrastive: grammar involves drawing the learner’s attention to contrast the differences between the target language and other language.Grammar practice:Pre-learning;Volume and repetition:Success-orientation.Heterogeneity .Teacher assistance.Interest 1.Mechanical practice:activities that are aimed at form accuracy.By doing mechanical practice,students pay repeated attention to a key element in a structure.form of practice:Substitution and transformation drills2. Meaningful practice the focus is on the production, comprehension or exchange of meaning though the students “keep an eye on” the way newly learned structures are used in the process.ing prompts for practice:The prompts can be pictures, mimes, tables, charts or key words, etc.A good presentation should include both oral and written and form and meaning Visual materials can aid comprehensionIt’s the teacher’s involvement and his or her ability to personalise teaching and make activities engaging that often promotes successful learning.Teaching vocabularyThe first question need to know is what does knowing a word involve.A word:knowing its pronunciation and stress; spelling and grammatical properties; meaning; how and when to use it to express the intended meaning (freestanding and bound morphine)Vocabulary learning involves ate least two aspects of meaning: the understanding of its denotative and connotative meaning; and understanding the sense relations among wordsDenotative meaning of a word or a lexical item refers to those words that we use to label things as regards real objects Connotative meaning of a word refers to ‘the attitudes or emotion s of a language user in choosing a word and the influence of these on the listener or reader’s interpretation of the word. This words that may express a positive or negative attitude or subtle feelings toward something.Collocations refers to words that co-occur with high frequency and have been accepted as ways for the use of words. It is believed that teaching word collocations is a more effective way than just teaching one single word at a time.Synonyms refer to items that mean the same, or nearly the same.Antonyms refer to items that mean the opposite of a word. Hyponyms refer to words which can be grouped together under the same superordinate conceptReceptive and Productive vocabularyPassive vocabulary: the words they know.Active vocabulary: the words they useSo the job for the teacher is to guide the students to those words which will help them to add to their active vocabularies, and to distinguish those words from the much larger number of passive items. At the beginning of language learning, all the words which are taught must be acquired for active use, later, at intermediate and advanced levels, most of the words students meet will only be needed for passive use.Ways of consolidating vocabulary:labelling,spot the difference,descibe and draw,play a game,use word series,word bingo,word association,find a synonyms and antonym,categories,using word net-work,using the Internet resources for some ideasDeveloping vocabulary building strategies:review regularly,guess meaning from context, Organize vocabulary effectively,using a dictionary,manage strategy useTeaching listeningListening problems:lack of teaching materials,both with print materials and audio or video tapes,lack of equipment in some schools;lack of real-life situations:lack of professional qualified instructorsA number of people have frequently made the point that of the total time an individual is engaged in communication: approximately 9% is devoted to writing, 16% to reading, 30% to speaking,45% to listeningListening and reading are receptive skills, but listening can be more difficult than reading.Different speakers produce the same sounds in different waysThe listener has little or no control over the speed of the input of spoken material;Spoken material is often heard only once and in most cases,we cannot go back and listen again as we can when we read;The listener cannot pause to work out the meaning of the heard material as can be done when reading;Speech is more likely to be distorted by the media which transmit sounds or background noise that can make it difficult to hear clearly; The listener sometimes has to deal simultaneously with another task while listening, such as formal note-taking, writing down directions or messages from telephone calls, or operating while listening to instructions.Characteristics of the listening process,formal or informal?rehearsed or non-rehearsed?can the listener interact with the speaker or not?Listening characteristics:Spontaneity,Context,visual clues,listener’s response,speaker’s adjustmen tListening purpose:for social reasons,to obtain and exchange informationPrinciples and models of teaching listeningFocus on process:(they have to hear what is being said,they have to pay attention and construct a meaningful message in their mind by rela ting what they hear to what they already know;it’s also possible to hear people talking without paying attention;we also know that if we don’t have enough previous knowledge of what is being said,it’s more difficult to make sense of what is said)Combine listening with other skills;Focus on the comprehension of meaning;Grade difficulty level appropriately Designing listening activity:give a clear purpose, a specific task,an appropriate context for doing themBottom-up model:Listening comprehension is believ ed to start with sound and meaning recognitions.In other words,‘we use information in the speech itself to try to comprehend the meaning’Listeners construct meaning of what they hear based on the sound they hear.Top-down model:listening for gist and making use of the contextual clues and background knowledge to construct meaning are emphasised.In other words,listening comprehension involves ‘knowledge that a listener brings to a text,sometimes called ‘inside the head’ information,as opposed to the informat ion that is available within the text itself’ In such a case,listeners can understand better if they know something about the speaker,the setting,the topic and the purpose of the talk.prior knowledge or schematic knowledge—mental frameworks for various things and experience we hold in our long-term memoryPre-listening activities:aim to motivate students,to activate their prior knowledge,and to teach key words or key sentences to the students before listening begins predicting,setting the scene,listening for the gist and specific informationWhile-listening:no specific responses,listen and tick,listen and sequence,listen and act,listen and draw,listen and fill,listen and take notesPost-listening:multiple-choice questions,answering questions,note-taking and gap-filling ,dictogloss(preparation dictation reconstruction analysis and correction)Integrate listening with the practice of other language skills,role play,debate,discussion,writing backTeaching speakingSpeech characteristic:spontaneous,full of false starts repetitions incomplete sentences short phrases time-constraintspoken languages features:Using less complex syntax;Taking short cuts,(incomplete sentences);Using fixed conventional phrases/ chunks. Using devices such as fillers, hesitation device to give time to think before speaking. Both learners and teachers need to learn to accept repetitions,rephrase,hesitations,incomplete sentences,fillers or pauses.th is doesn’t mean we don’t encourage fluent speaking.In training students’speaking skills,features of natural speech should be accepted.this doesn’t only have implication for teaching speaking but also for assessing speaking.Encourage students to speak up is the first and most important task Principles:Balancing accuracy-based with fluency-based practices, Contextualising practice, Personalising practice, Building up confidence, Maximising meaningful interactions, Helping students develop speaking strategiesDesigning speaking tasks:meaningful motivation linguistically appropriate cognitively challengeMaximum foreign talk even participation high motivation right language levelPre-communicative activities :structural,quasi-communicative Communicative activities :Functional communicative and Social interactionRole-play :perform in different moods,change different role relationship,actual word can be varied,make the dialogue longerLearners should be helped move from form to using what is learned in meaningful communicationThe problem is not having nothing to say but lacking the opportunity to say itTeaching readingReading aloud and silent reading:Reading aloud cannot replace silent reading as it involves only the skills of pronunciation and intonation.Real reading ability re-quires the reading skills of skimming, scanning, predictingEffective reading:clear purpose in reading; read silently; read phrase by phrase,rather than word by word; concentrate on the important bits,skim the rest,and skip the insignificant parts; use different speeds and strategies for different reading tasks; perceive the information in the target language rather than mentally translate; guess the meaning of new words from the context,or ignore them; use background information to help understand the text.Reading comprehension means extracting the relevant information from the text as efficiently as possible,connecting the information from written message with one’s own knowledge to arrive at an understanding (construction of meaning from printed or written messa ge) Two broad levels in reading:1) a recognition task of perceiving visual signals from the printed page through the eyes;2) a cognitive task of interpreting the visual information,relating the receive information with reader’s own knowledge Vocabulary role:efficient reading begins with a lightening-like automatic recognition of word.this initial process of accurate,rapid and automatic recognition of vocabulary frees one’s mind to use other resources(reasoning abilities,,knowledge about topic)to con struct meaningSight vocabulary:you can recognise with both sounds and meanings without special effort from your brainFluent reading depends on an adequate sight vocabulary,a general knowledge about the target language, some knowledge about the topic, wide knowledge about the world and enough knowledge about text types.Teaching model:bottom-up model top-down model interactive modelPre-reading:pooling existing knowledge about the topic;predicting the contents of the text,skimming and scanning the text or parts of the text for certain purpose;learning key words and structures(predicting setting the scene skimming scanning)While reading: Information presented in plain text form is not facilitative for information retentionThe way to transfer information from one form to another is called a transition deviceReading comprehension questionsQuestions for literal comprehension.directly and explicitly available in the ually answered in the words of the text itself. Questions involving reorganization or reinterpretation.obtain literal information from various parts and put it to-gether or reinterpretQuestions for inferences. This type of questions require students to consider what is implied but not explicitly stated.Questions for evaluation or appreciation.most sophisticated ques-tions which involve making a judgment about the text in terms of what the writer is trying to convey.Questions for personal response. The answers to these questions depend most on the reader’s reaction to the content of the text.Post-reading:discussion questions,reproducing the text,role play,gap-filling,discussion,retelling,writingThe teaching of reading should focus on developing students’reading skills and strategies and on maintaining students’motivat ion for readingTeaching writingWriting purpose:get things done and to form;maintain social relationships;give a voice for shy students;less threatening for anxious students as it gives them to think about their meaning and purpose;raise awareness of how language worksA communicative approach to writing:Writing for learning”and “writing for communication”Sense of authenticity and audience motivation for writing purpose for writing proper procedures for writingProblems in writing tasks:They are mainly accuracy-based.They are designed to practise a certain target structures.There is insufficient preparation before the writing stage.There is no sense of audience and authenticity.Students are given ideas to express rather than being invited to invent their own.There is no opportunity for creative writing, particular for expressing unusual or original ideas.Many of them are test-oriented.The important point is that they are given the freedom to write about themselves rather than to write what they are told to write and therefore what they write should be more meaningful and communicativeA process approach to writing: creating a motivation to write, brainstorming, mapping, freewriting, outlining, drafting, editing, revising, proofreading and conferencing.Motivating students to write.1.make the topic of writing as close as possible to students’ life.leave students enough room for creativity and imagination. prepare students well before writing. encourage collaborative group writing as well as individual writing. provide opportunities for students to share their writings. provide constructive and positive feedback.treat students’ errors strategically. give students a sense of achievement from time to time.We have emphasized that the teaching of writing should focus on the process rather than the product, and that all the writing tasks should have communicative purposesSummative assessment is mainly based on testing,it’s done mostly at the end of a learnin g period or a school year Formative assessment is based on information collected in the classroom during the teaching process for the purpose of improving teaching and learningTeacher’s observations continuous assessment student’s self-assessment project work portfolios。
