●Task writing a biographical article
This section consists of a series of activities which provide opportunities to learn and practice language skills. Each of the three steps is preceded by a skills building activity. Try to learn how to write a curriculum vitae and a biographical article.
Skills building 1: listening for figures
In this part you will learn when to use cardinal numbers or ordinal numbers and how to identify specific numbers when listening. You will also learn what words or phrases can be used to express an approximate number or to modify a number. Listen to an interview and fill in the figures you hear.
1. First let’s review different forms of numbers. Please give the ordinal form of the numbers
below.
① 1-12
Cardinal numbers Ordinal numbers formation
one first/1st 1. 序数词1-3为特殊变化
two second/2nd 2. 4-12在基数词词尾加-th构成。

three third/3rd注意fifth, ninth, twelfth的词形变
four fourth/4th化。

five fifth/5th
nine ninth/9th
twelve twelfth/12th
② 13-19基数词在数词3-9后加-teen构成，其中13和15发生拼写变化，分别为thirteen, fifteen
13-19序数词在基数词后加-th构成。

如：thirteen--thirteenth
③ 20-90整十位数在基数词2-9之后加后缀-ty构成，其中20，30，40，50拼写发生变化，分别为twenty, thirty, forty, fifty; 构成序数词时，将词尾y变成i加eth, 如：sixty—sixtieth/60th 十位数之间的数，由十位数加个位数构成，中间用连字符号。

构成序数词时，十位数用基数词表示，个位数用序数词表示。

如：21/ twenty-one→twenty-first/ 21st
Note:
2. Go over the six points on page 54 that describe what a CV should include and should not
include. Pay attention to the order in which education and experience are listed on a CV.
Note that if someone wants to find a job, his or her CV usually includes Identification, to tell others who you are and how to contact with you; Objective, to tell the kind of job you want to get. This item can be omitted sometimes; Education, to list the names of the schools at which you studied and the graduation dates. The name of the most recent school should be listed first, and then the second most recent one. The first school that you went to should be the last one written down; Experience, to tell your past jobs, company names, location and position held for past jobs, other experiences, such as work, either professional, internship or volunteer. Note that experience related to the job being applied for should be listed first, and any other experience related to the job wanted can be listed. The most recent one should be listed first; References, to tell the names of the persons who once worked or studied together with you and their contact information. This is usually done when requested. The referees should never be your family members; and at the end of a CV, there’s usually the item Other, to tell the honors you’ve got and activities you have taken par t in, your hobbies and interests.
3. To make sure that you know how to write a curriculum vitae, I’d like to leave you 5 minutes or so to write a CV about yourselves and then present it to the class.
